liz & ryan
06.09.08 | weddings
a destination wedding in brookings, south dakota
created a lifetime of memories for liz & ryan
on 06.07.08. after two years of planning, seeing
it all come together was super fab.
liz had an understated *moment* when ryan broke the news that all her wedding invitations incorrectly announced their day as, "saturday, the sixth of june two thousand and eight." we're all human :)
i gave liz the advice my mother gave me during our wedding planning process: "you are planning for a marriage, not just a wedding." so true.
family, bridal party, photographers, and guests still showed up and witnessed a beautiful exchange of vows, then partook in some crazy celebrations that lasted well past midnight.
the only downside to such a fun night: nicole broke her first bone, a broken middle toe resulting from a run-in with a chair :(

nervous moments before the First Look:
the First Look:
glad to see i'm not the only one who gets a bubble up the nose :)
napa auto parts provided the wonderful backdrop... highlights direct from overhead sun.

some relaxed kern-photo portraits (spot nicole, the bridesmaid seated):

your wife at a wedding :)

a heart-felt toast:

dancing queen:
penny-the-viszla turned three-years-old on the wedding day and had a cake with her name on it, so it was fitting to have a viszla inspired rock-shot:
