I had the pleasure of witnessing Dawn and Becky's wedding on April 11th, 2014. These girls couldn't have had more of a perfect day! We were all so concerned about the weather because it had been so wet and rainy the week of their wedding. Thankfully Mother Nature gave us a break and gave us a beautiful sunny day.
I met up with Becky at her hotel in Fenton to catch some shots of her getting ready while my friend Katie of Katharine Roberds Photography grabbed some shots of Dawn getting ready at her mom's home in Saint Louis. Although I wasn't with Dawn to catch her getting ready, I can see by the photos the excitement and anticipation that these girls were feeling.

Becky and I wrapped up quickly at the hotel so we can head to Laumeier Park to meet Dawn for their first look. The girls chose the location in front of Alexander Liberman’s “The Way” Sculpture. It was such an emotional moment – a happy emotion that is for the girls and also for the rest of their families that were there to witness their first look.

Their ceremony and reception was held at Andres West in Fenton. The day went without a hitch and we even had some time to spare after the ceremony in which I took advantage of and stole the girls for a few more photos of them outside their reception venue.
The evening went smoothly as well with everyone dancing and celebrating the union of two lovely ladies. The entire day was filled with laughter and smiles stretching from ear to ear on Becky and Dawn’s face. These ladies truly know how to have a great time on their wedding day!
Dawn and Becky, thank you so much for choosing me to be part of your very special day. I am very honored to document it for you ladies.
