They say that the third time’s a charm and it couldn’t be more true for this couple! Their original wedding date was May 2020, then they moved it to October 2020, and finally were able to tie the knot this past weekend! Leslie and Paul are the sweetest and most easy-going couple who made our jobs not only easy, but enjoyable! Leslie is an awesome wedding photographer herself and we are truly honored and humbled when other photographers ask us to capture their wedding day! They know the ins and outs of wedding photography, editing, and so much more and it truly makes our hearts soar that she picked us to be a part of her perfect day! And that’s exactly how we would describe this wedding…a perfect day. Not only was the weather amazing, but the details were stunning, the bridal party was a blast, and this wedding was just FUN!
We started out in our brides room as we do for every wedding and Leslie had all her details ready for us with loose florals for detail shots and everything. We were greeted with warm hugs from her family and friends and just loved meeting everyone. As we got ready for Leslie and Paul’s first look, there was an amazing surprise for Paul that involved a wedding dress and his best man (you HAVE to scroll through to see those images) We laughed so hard (Vic was literally crying from how hard he laughed) and we knew we were in for the best day! Aside from the fun, there were so many sweet moments throughout this wedding and we just loved being a part of it all! The vendor team we worked with was absolutely amazing including Nate Puhr for video, wedding planner Jess of Blush by Brandee Gaar , and Jenna and her staff at the Opal Sands Resort! We’re so excited to share more from this stunning wedding with you all today!
Leslie and Paul, we love you guys SO much and we are honored to have been your photographers! You had the most amazing day and we are excited for this new journey you just started as husband and wife! Welcome to the married club :)
