A Valentine’s Day blog post seems appropriate, right?  This one is chocked full of love and lots of laughs too!  Sarah & Eric are one of my favorite couples… AND they also got the perfect breezy fall weather for their wedding.  It was an amazing, hilarious, sweet, sentimental, fun, and gorgeous day!  I never know where to start, so I am starting here…. with this amazing non traditional ring!  That band!! ????

red nails + the perfect hair swoop!

Sarah, you are stunning!!

and the groom! Gotta love a classic bow tie & tux.

looking pretty dapper, my friend!

I secretly… well, I guess not so secretly, am a huge sap myself, and I sort of love it when both people cry at the first look!

Off to the park for a few photos pre-ceremony!  We managed to find a little bit of fall color…

yep, sometimes there are spontaneous jazz hands.  Except that guy on the end.. he isn’t having it LOL

Gorgeous light, gorgeous couple, a little veil wind….

Love this series with the orange in the leaves!

The couples who laugh together all day are the most fun!

So, apparently this is a family tradition, and I LOVE it.  First time I have had Groucho masks at a wedding!!

Tell me these aren’t the best groomsmen socks you have ever seen.  I dare you.

Again with the veil wind… moments later this actually got super crazy and the wind tried to pull the veil out… but in this moment it was perfection.

Let’s make this thing official… But first, a few details!

The Ketubah makes it official technically… now on to to the ceremony!

I love both of their faces… the happy cry and the confident, calmness.

The courtyard at the CAM at sunset!

so the wind strikes again… luckily there were some volunteers to man the chuppah poles and hold that sucker down… we were almost to the glass stomp anyway!  Mazel Tov!

The courtyard was lovely for cocktails, now time to head in for the rest of the party!

such a cool space!

See?  They’re the cutest.

This babe and I became buddies throughout the evening.

Horah time! I always love to look through these as a series and look at the changing facial expressions :)

Sarah and Eric, thank you forgetting me capture your engagement and wedding day,  and I wish you both this amount of  happiness for all time!  with love, kate
