Suzie & Bill | Downington, PA Wedding

My husband is loyal and he loves me. Suzie & Bill's wedding is one of the many reasons I'm sure of this. See, Bill works with my husband, Marc and when Marc found out that Bill proposed to Suzie, he urged Bill to contact me. As their wedding planning progressed, apparently Marc repeatedly reminded Bill that he needed a photographer and that photographer was me. I had no idea how much of a natural marketer my hubby had become until Bill actually DID email me and set up a time to meet. Needless to say, they booked and I have Marc to thank for the introduction. :) Thanks babe!

Suzie & Bill are one of the funniest couples I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I had so much fun hanging out with them for their engagement session over the summer. Bill will do just about anything to make his bride smile, which you can imagine includes LOTS of goofy face making! Oh but when he achieves his goal and Suzie's face lights up in laughter, you can almost see the pride spilling from his ears. It's as if his sole purpose in life is to make Suzie laugh and I am certain that he rocks at this job. :)

Without further ado...some photos....

Suzie and her bridesmaids started the day off at Evolution Salon for hair and makeup.

I think this is one of my fav ring shots EVER!

Getting a bride into her gown is quite an assembly line sometimes.

Suzie had a corset back gown, which I always love, despite the time consuming lace up. LOL

Some bridal portraits...

This girl has an electrifying smile, doesn't she?!

Blossom Boutique did an extraordinary job on the flowers.

The ceremony was held at St. Joseph's Church in Downingtown.

I love moments like these, when they think nobody's looking. The prime time to capture moments like these during a Catholic ceremony, is while the guests are receiving the Eucharist.

We took the bridal party photos at Springton Manor Farm, which was an awesome spot that happened to be on our way to the reception.

The groomsman all the way on the right of this photo kept asking me if I was SURE that everyone was in the photo. It was so funny, because no matter how I insisted that I was using a really wide angle lens, I finally had to show him the picture for him to believe me!

Oh how I adore this tree.

We could not escape without at least one funny face on the blog. LOL

Bill had an ear-2-ear smile almost the entire day.
SB_33

ummm....oops! We saw the sign a little too late.

The reception was held at Bill's family farm, in their completely renovated barn, deemed the Posnerosa. :) Bill's family renovated the barn and have been hosting only family events, however the possibility of opening it to the public has been a topic of discussion.
All in favor? I say Aye! :) They've done an amazing job with the place and Bill is so proud of their accomplishment. He told me on more than one occasion how he just couldn't wait for me to see the place. :) I was so pumped to find that it was even more fascinating than he had described.

The cake was so beautifully simple! Love it!

They really went all out on the fall theme and did an outstanding job on the decor!

The obligatory bling shot.

Suzie & Bill's intro into their reception came with a sensational spin.

The first dance.

See? He lives to make her laugh. :)

OMG the garter and bouquet toss was hysterical!! They blindfolded the guy who caught the garter and without his knowing it, replaced his gorgeous girlfriend with a furry legged fella! Oh the laughter that ensued when he discovered their dirty little trick. GREAT entertainment.
SB_47

Bill's neice, Taylor, was having a grand time dancing with her uncle.

A fun time was had by all, thanks to the musical mastery of DJ Pam Moore. I suspect she was behind the garter debauchery. ;) She rocked the house!

Thanks so much guys for the laughter, the entertainment and for trusting me with your wedding memories. Special shoutout to Tessie, for tagging along with me on another fun-filled wedding adventure. We are becoming quite the team! Thanks, girl!

Misty Misty Misty...You still cease to amaze me. Not one wedding has been the same. Not one photo shoot has even resembled another. You are always finding those hidden moments and hidden beauty that so many other miss. With photos like these you had better hire some assistants...cuz this upcoming season is going to fricking rock!!!
