Kate + Matt wedding {by liz & mer}

I was just telling Mer that I think I may need to make a studio album sample out of these two. I love pretty things, but I love emotion more. Emotive people make my heart sing. If you are looking to feel love and happiness going into Christmas week, then take a look at these cuties. I promise you their joy will rub off on you. Smiles, hugs and squeezes all around!

It is never too early to start teaching your children how to table dance properly. ;)

Love.

Woo-hoo!

My fave photo from the whole day!

Alright, you guys know I almost never post family photos. They are super important, but for the sake of blog storytelling not so useful. Unless there are screaming children crying so hard with faces so red it looks as if they have been dropped in a pot of boiling water. Now THAT is funny! However, I am including this one in hopes of encouraging future clients to take note. THIS is how fun family photos can actually be!!! classic st. louis wedding venues,kate,lourdes catholic church st. louis,matt,our lady lourdes wedding,wedding reception in the chase starlight room,

Perfect veil shot (nice throw Mer!)

And off to The Chase Park Plaza to get this party started!

The Chase recently renovated rooms AND their ballrooms. The spaces are so much more light and bright now! classic st. louis wedding venues,kate,lourdes catholic church st. louis,matt,our lady lourdes wedding,wedding reception in the chase starlight room,

Ok. I can’t even with this FOB speech. By far, 100% the absolute BEST speech I have ever heard and I have photographed over 500 weddings. Kate’s dad basically got up there, said “oops I forgot my speech” and then left the room. And then the video started. A video of him in his tux, getting in the elevator, leaving the Chase and going on an adventure across the country. I mean, he had to be taping for months. All wearing his tux lol! It was amazing. I was dying laughing. He got a standing ovation. I’m going to see if they have it uploaded somewhere and add it to this blog as soon as I can! classic st. louis wedding venues,kate,lourdes catholic church st. louis,matt,our lady lourdes wedding,wedding reception in the chase starlight room,
