Jamaica Mon!
Well, where do I begin. Stefanie is one of my best friends and she is very special to me! Her and Jody have been dating since high school (for 12 years). We never doubted they loved each other enough to become man and wife…it was just a matter of time! I’m so glad that time finally came
I’m so glad I was able to watch them get married, on a beach surrounded by their best friends and their family. I love the way they love each other. This is a long post. This is mostly for Stefanie and Jody…I know they are as excited to see their pictures as I am to show them! Matt and I had a wonderful time in Jamaica!
If you know Stefanie, you know she is the one person who would bring FRUIT ROLL UPS all the way to Jamaica!
I know know if you remember their engagements and their adorable puppy, Danger. You can see it here. Well obviously it was too far for the little guy to travel so Stef pinned this on her dress so he would be with them
I’m not saying this cause Stefanie is a friend and she is one of the most beautiful brides I’ve ever seen…but this is my favorite dress…EVER!
After their first look, Jody whispered to me “Gosh, she is just so pretty”
Pre-Wedding cocktails!
Jody’s mom
Stef’s family. Also, my “other” mom and dad.
Really? I mean it absolutely does NOT get better then THIS!
Not as easy as it looks, Jody?
Ok, so their wedding was scheduled for 4 oclock. It rained ALL day. It cleared up about 3 oclock, so they went ahead with the ceremony. Well right when we finished taking pictures, this storm blew in. It rained the ENTIRE night. Someone was watching over their wedding!
I love you Stefanie and Jody. You have been there for every important moment in my life. I am forever grateful that you are both my friends. I can’t wait to watch your love grow. Thank you for letting me and Matt be apart of this day! I will remember it forever
After their ceremony, I put my camera away and we headed inside for dinner. This is just a few pics I snapped with my point and shoot
