Emily + Jon {by kate}

Emily and Jon got married at the lovely Hyatt at the Arch in downtown St. Louis. First of all, let me say that Emily is gorgeous… she has nearly jet black hair and crazy blue eyes… so I can see why Jon is smitten…but I must apologize to Jon in advance for showing photos of him tearing up… but it was so cute– he is a big old softie. I love it when people are crazy about each other…sigh. I will start off with the dress and drool-worthy shoes:

BHLDN shoes in the prettiest shade of blue

I am so jealous of people with dainty little ankles like Em’s

the lovely Emily Bingham Berger

and finally we see Jon!

i *LOVE* this photo of him waiting to see her for the first time

see?! a softie.

beautiful bouquets and bouts by Belli Fiori…. whatever those little grey guys are I like them a LOT

ladies

and gents….that one on the far right will be performing the ceremony soon enough!

the Hyatt had some infused waters to keep people refreshed on the terrace and they looked so pretty I couldn’t resist snapping a photo of them!

caution… I kind of want to eat these children up because they are so so cute.

i think she likes him

okay, so this next one is actually the confetti gathered on the train of the dress… so a little out of order, but you get the gist

SO much confetti! This is one of the only shots where I can even kind of see them through the clouds of paper

adorable favor boxes with yummy cake truffles from the Cakery Bakery

adorable details everywhere!

and off comes the veil…. those things never make it past introductions!

okay– so let’s compare and contrast the neat and tidy maid of honor’s speech with the best man’s… which looks like it may have been gnawed on by wolverines and then edited by someone?? i kid, I kid… both speeches turned out great, by the way :)
