For  love & baseball!!!  Angela & Brian were married right in the heart of our Royals being in the world series!  It was  game 4 and the Royals were leading the series 2-1, the whole city was painted blue with excitement.  While I know Angela & Brian were so excited about the Royals in the world series, that was probably not in their mind when setting their wedding date  With all of that being said, I know plenty of brides who might have been very distraught with what to do about that during their reception.  But Angela & Brian embraced it, and went ahead and put the game on after dinner during their reception.  Lots of guests enjoyed watching the game in the bar area while others got their groove on the dance floor and some tried to combine those two acts

It is a really neat story of how Angela & Brian met.  Angela’s daughter’s best friend is Brian’s niece.  If I am remembering the story correctly, Brian was at his sisters sometime when Angela was coming or going with her daughter, Katie and of course asked his sister about her immediately  Angela and Katie seem like best friends and Brian and Katie have so much fun together.  I am just so happy for them to all become a family  Congratulations Brian, Angela & Katie!

I started the day out taking a few photos at the salon just down the street from the Stanley in Lees Summit where the wedding and ceremony was going to be.

All the shops outside were sporting their Royals cheer!Then we headed over to the Stanley for Angela to put her dress on.  The dressing room there is cute as heck!  And of course the flowers were beautiful!  Amy from Victorian Gardens did an amazing job!
Amy is how I actually met Angela!  I was picking up a corsage for my son’s prom while Angela was meeting with her!  And her date was the only one I did not have booked for October!  Lucky for me The moment when they both see each other on their wedding day is such an awesome moment to witness.  They were so happy I LOVE this photo  Such a beautiful lady and handsome groom! It was unseasonably warm for the end of October which was nice to be outside for a few photos! This is perfectly them.  Brian had me laughing all day! LOL!!! So lovely! I love that Brian’s ring has baseball stitching engraved on it, perfect for a world series wedding!  Angela is a writer and I have read her poem like a dozen times Brian had everyone laughing as he came down the aisle with a bit of bounce It was a beautiful ceremony!  I am solo crazy about the combinations of the brick, wood and ceiling here!!!! Of course we had to bust out the world series towels I brought!!!! mmmmmmm….gelato!!!!!
And this is how you multi task!  Dancing and watching the series at the same time We were still ahead here
I love photos with the streetlights.  It feels so romantic to me, like walking home from a date Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!
