My friend Jenny is now married! (well ok, she's been married for over a month now, but I'm still excited!). So maybe some of you remember that VERY rainy day at the end of April? Seriously, it wasn't just sprinkling, it was POURING!!! I was getting very nervous for the pictures afterwards. I was thinking to myself, "It's a very good thing that we did groomals beforehand." And that was very true. However, we were very blessed because literally 5-10 minutes before they came out of the temple, it completely stopped raining! It really was a small miracle (big to me!) that day. But of course that day prompted me to get a "rain-coat" for my camera (which I had my bro-in-law get while we were in the temple). Now maybe I'm ready for any kind of weather. But I was so grateful that we were able to do pictures of everyone without lots of umbrellas and wet hair :) It was a very fun adventure! 
As you might have noticed in the first picture, these two were way practiced on the "dip and kiss." Jenny trained him good :) And I absolutely love the expressions found on the right hand side of this picture (especially Grandpa taking a picture too!)
That's my funny friend Jenny and her cute personality!
I seriously love this family! I love this next one of Jenny and her brothers.
And they are VERY protective! :)
Ok, so my personal moment in this post . . . Jenny & I! Seriously I love this girl! She's the best! Our friendship started in 9th grade, as I was the "new girl" to the school. I feel like I'm a pretty good judge of people. And I was drawn to Jenny as my friend. I just sensed her goodness and happy spirit. We have had some great times . . . she was one of the few friends who would totally be ok with "imagining" our future husbands and giggling while we described how they'd be. We both were romantics together, and it's so fun to see who we now ended up with! I don't think we could have imagined how great our husbands are - 'cuz they're pretty amazing! I'm just so happy that I had the opportunity to still be Jenny's friend and have the opportunity to take her wedding pictures and see how happy she is with Brandon.
Ok, here we are together as friends!
Ok, now on to a couple favs of just Brandon & Jenny on their wedding day!
A little different edit:
It was an amazing experience being able to be there to see Brandon & Jenny seal their love for eternity. Brandon scored big! And also I am so happy for the awesome guy that Jenny got! I wish them all the happiness and love possible!
Brandon is a goof! But perfect for Jenny!
This was at the very end before they headed to the luncheon. Jenny looks great in that suitcoat!
Ok, now the night before for their reception, I was the "un-official" photographer. Their reception was incredible! It really was for being in a church cultural hall! Jenny had her aunt help out with lots of the details and it really was a beautiful reception! So I did take some shots, especially of some of the details! Let me share with you what they did:
Candy table! (I sort of wish I'd come early to get the full effect of this table . . .but these couple shots will have to do):
Ok, so I'm bragging for Jenny's aunt, family, friends, etc. or whoever made these: They had PAPER, yes paper, flowers! Jenny's aunt taught them how to make tissue-paper flowers, which they spent months beforehand making. I could not believe the detail that was involved with making these, and not to mention the quantity in which they had these at the reception!!! It saved lots of money, was totally gorgeous, and could be kept for many other occasions because they will never die (of course unless a two year old or something gets their hands on them ;)
Isn't that so cool?
And get this . . . they hung this real tree branch with those paper balls from the ceiling too! It turned out really cool!
And look at the decorating involved: they brought this cute picket fense, pillows, white bench, trees, pictures, and lamps to make the line look so cute. Of course I snagged a picture of the couple.
Jenny and her Dad! I have high respect for her dad too. He was always rooting Jenny as well as me on during our high school basketball games. He and his wife are so great at supporting their kids with all of their sports. They never miss a game! Like I said before, I love this family!
Mother of the Bride. Tender moment too.
I actually really liked this bouquet toss picture! It might be my favorite to date! Lots of action ;)
End with my favorite dancing pictures
Seriously it was so fun to be there and capture one of my best friend's wedding! She is so happy and of course that makes me happy too! Hope you enjoyed your sneak peek Jenny & Brandon!
