Kelly & Don live in Florida, but came to St. Louis for their small, intimate wedding amongst family and friends.  The ceremony was held on the terrace of their residence at the lovely Chase Park Plaza and then despite the heat, everyone had fun at the reception on the patio at the Seven Gables Inn!

I love this wooden slat wall!

and finally an appearance from Don!  I may or may not have accidentally walked in on the best man naked just before these photos were taken. Sorry friend!

cards & gifts before the ceremony…

the view from the terrace

married!

I love the vintage dresser and china that kelly found to get this rustic, yet elegant look

macarooons– my weakness. I may have eaten 4 of these… you know, try one of each and then one more pistachio  (shhh)

Thanks for bearing with me in the heat and for letting me capture your wedding day!  xo, kate
