Erica & Don's Wedding

Erica and Don held their celebration at Erica’s family home which made for an intimate venue for them, family, and friends. Erica’s folks were so welcoming I felt like part of the family from the moment I drove up to the property, which they had decorated beautifully and clearly with great care. Don and the guys got ready at a nearby hotel (covered by my 2nd photographer Amy). These two were so overjoyed just being together while we shot the first look and portraits that it kind of felt like the magic of the ceremony had already begun. The backyard tent reception was a blast & since the wedding was on the exact day of the father of the bride’s birthday, Erica and Don planned a surprise happy bday moment for him which had many in tears. After that the band took over and the party started!
