Countdown to the Anniversary: Portraits

I can't lie...I'm getting tired of uploading all these photos, because it takes so darn long! :) So the posts will probably start getting shorter. Something tells me that you probably won't mind!

Anyway...after the ceremony, we took lots of portraits. Some traditional, and then lots of nontraditional fun stuff.

Up first...the photographer shot a cute one of Matt and I before the portraits started.
Here we are with my parents and my Granddad.
This time with my Grandma
With both sets of parents
With my immediate family...
...and with Matt's immediate family!!!
With John, Officiant Extraordinaire
Okay, so this was actually taken pre-ceremony.
Bridesmaids!
I don't know why, but I just love this photo of my shoes and swirly dress.
Love this shot of Matt and his boys...so handsome!

I like this one, but I kinda think it looks like they're peeing. Haha.
Fun portraits


Note to readers: it was approximately 30 degrees that day. Brrrr.







If this photo had a caption, it would be: "Ahhh! It's still cold out!!!!"

I was SO thrilled with the way all of our pro photos turned out. I know I have posted this before, but...if anyone is getting married in the metro Detroit area, I HIGHLY recommend Patrick Abel at Special Moments Photography. He is fantastic to work with, and I think the quality speaks for itself. All photos above taken by Patrick.

Next up: the reception!

I think Matt must be intimidated by your immediate family since yours is so huge in comparison to his! Ha - those two shots were amazing next to each other.

Your photos are gorgeous, as always.

Those photos are amazing. You both look fantastic and so happy. I love those outside shots.

Which ones did you enlarge and have in your home? I don't know how you would choose.

Happy almost Anniversary!
