September 25th was the perfect day for Lizzy and Josh's wedding. The weather was gorgeous, the venues were idyllic, and the whole wedding party (Lizzy & Josh, 9 bridesmaids, 9 groomsmen, and 5 kids) looked amazing. There were some beautiful and fun elements to their wedding, such as the invitations by Dapper Paper (check out their Etsy shop--very cool stuff!) and the bird and feather details in Lizzy's bouquet, the boutonnieres, and the guest sign in area at the reception. All the groomsmen wore Tom's shoes. Lizzy walked down the aisle to The Arcade Fire's, "Wake Up." When I heard the song start, I was thinking, "No way! How cool is that?!" Ultimately, though, I think the most important part of the wedding to Lizzy and Josh was being able to honor their faith through the ceremony, and it showed. After the ceremony, the entire wedding party walked through downtown Raleigh to get to the reception, where they feasted on elegantly served comfort foods like macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, and mini chicken pot pies before enjoying italian ice, wedding cake, and lots of dancing.
I have to give a huge thank you to Cat Watson for second shooting for me. Two of her images are featured below.
Congratulations, Lizzy and Josh!
