Well..the our most anticipated wedding of the summer is now behind us and it was absolutely amazing. Drew’s sister got married at the most amazing venue in Cle Elum, Ritter Farms. Drew was a groomsman did the ceremony, Estelle and Evan were in the wedding and I was a bridesmaid and just couldn’t leave my camera at home…especially since I knew all of the amazing details that she had planned. Turquoise piano in a field, books and vintage lace table cloths, tissue garland and crates stacked up for a cake table. Vintage cameras, Popcorn stations and donuts, the list goes on and on. I loved every little last detail and I would have loved it, even if I wasn’t related to her! She has great taste and brought all of her amazing ideas to life!

I can’t go any further with out saying a huge, huge thank you to one of my very best friends, and another fabulous photographer, Molly Vaden, of Molly Vaden Photography, who gave up her beautiful August weekend to come shoot this wedding with me. She is such an artist and I wish she only knew just how talented she is! I am so lucky to call her friend and it was a joy to shoot along side her (after 2 years!)….It was just like old times…for the 5 or 6 years that we shot together! I miss those days!! All of the images that don’t have my logo on them are shot by Molly Vaden Photography.

One of my favorite details of the wedding. I was a little scared that it would fall over any second…but it looked fabulous!

There is such a great story behind these rings. (we will see if I get it right!) Denae’ had admired her Great Grandma GG’s ring since she was a little girl.  Then one day Denae’ saw the ring on the right at a Antique Jewelry store and fell in love with it…not realizing that it looked really similar to the one she loved as a child. She got to wear both rings on her wedding day! So special!

Only my fashion forward sister in law would by a wedding gown online….but it was the perfect dress! 

Dan is an amazing photographer…I loved that the very first thing he did when he saw his bride was to snap a pic. He just couldn’t help himself…and I ‘m glad he did it! What a precious moment that he captured. 

This one actually made us cry! We cried alot that day…but this was just so sweet!

Denae’ has such a great sense  of style. Her brides maids gift was a special necklace to wear for the wedding. They matched personalities and dresses so well, I don’t know how she found the time to find all of them!

We had so much fun with Chelsea (and Cindy too!)  Thank you to Terri Fields of Basic To Bombshell that did the fabulous make-up and styling too!
