Katie and Steve were married last month at the Roger Williams Park Casino in Providence. They did an amazing job of letting their personalities and relationship shine through the details of their day. One of the things I really loved was that they chose to write notes to each other while getting ready that morning and then also to read their own vows aloud during the actual ceremony. I’m all for many and all expressions of love! In fact, I’m a sucker for them, and I couldn’t hold back my own tears during the vows. :)

One thing that showed some personality–immediately after the recessional Katie already had a beer in hand. Weddings, especially the ceremony, can sometimes feel so formal so it was great to see a bride set the mood and show everyone else that it’s okay to kick back and just enjoy the night. Also, they decided to do a doughnut tower in lieu of a cake. What a fab idea!

Here are some of my favorites…

Katie and Steve, thanks so much again for having me there to capture all these sweet moments! It was a blast!
