The day Laura and Tim said I do at their perfect #WeAreHenehan wedding. And 5 years to the day after Michael and I said I do at our own! We loved celebrating our anniversary witnessing the beginning of a new marriage between two people I just adore. Their engagement session last year was one of my favorites of 2014 (and my last!), and I was excited from that day forward for their wedding day.
I joined Laura and her girls first at the salon to grab some pictures of them getting ready and she was calm and collected, and excited! The salon was bustling with women prepping to celebrate Laura and Tim, and it was such a fun environment! Laura was surrounded by sisters, friends, mothers, and aunts who adore Laura, and believe in her and Tim- and that was what we experienced all day. Loved ones who adore Tim and Laura together, and know that they are going to have a brilliant life together. Laura shared an incredibly sweet first look with her dad, the ceremony was beautiful and full of stolen glances and giggles between Laura and Tim that you will see, and their party was full of fun and love. Their friends know how to celebrate, and we loved that! Throw in a beautiful venue and a live band, and it is definitely a wedding to remember!
LOVED these bridesmaids dresses, and I was completely blown away by Laura’s dres! Wait till you see her in it!
Love love love.Favorite!
This sweet bridesmaid of Laura’s couldn’t make it because she is going to have a baby very soon- but we were excited to “bring her along” throughout the day!!Love these two together!
Laura wore her mother’s veil and it was stunning.
I could not get enough of this location!Their choreographed first dance was so sweet!
