I was already excited for Kendra and Spencer’s wedding day because she  has such a sweet, kind demeanor and I knew it would be a stress free day.  It is just not in her nature, or Spencer’s for that matter.   And I was excited to be taking the girls getting ready pictures at Kendra’s parents house.  Everyone was perfectly comfortable and it was personal :)  But what I didn’t know was how amazing all of the details and decorations of the day were going to be!  I was going crazy photographing all of the beautiful details!

While I met with the girls in the morning, I had no worries that my associate Nate would have a great time photographing Spencer and the boys getting ready downtown!  We all met at a fun little spot for Kendra and Spencer to first see each other on their wedding day and it was a sweet, beautiful moment to get their big day started :)

They were married at the Church of Resutrection in Leawood with their reception at Californos!   Jillian, the owner of The Vintage Petal, did an amazing job with all of the flowers!  The reception was just incredible!  Literally I could have taken a million shots of the flowers and decorations!!  One of my favorite things was the ladder that hung above the bridal table with the beautiful glass and candles tied to it!  Oh, well two super faves!  The popcorn bar!!!!!  I am kicking myself for not trying the popcorn with dill pickle sprinkled on it.  Just kicking myself while editing all of the popcorn table photos :)

On to the photos for the story :)

The invitations were soooooooo awesome!!!

I so love the pink belt added to Kendra’s dress, it was so pretty!!

another favorite detail was the awesome gift bag that went to some of out of town guests, what a cool kansas city tribute!

After Kendra’s mom and dad saw there baby girl in her wedding dress, there were a few tears shed :)

The boys getting ready!!

And the first look!  My angle and Nate’s!

this shot Nate got of me taking a photo from the trolley cracks me up!

Dang!  Kendra’s eyes are mesmerizing!

I am insane over this!!!  Love the clouds and dynamics of this photo :)

And we were off to the ceremony!!!

Reception time!!!!

Spencer sang the first part of their first dance song to Kendra!!!

Ha!  Love the Thriller dancing!!!

Congratulations!!!  Wishing you both a lifetime of sweet moments!!!!

Ali & Tim are now a Mr. & Mrs.!!!!!  It was a wonderful wedding, it couldn’t have gone better :)  They had a beautiful day with all of their closest friends and family around them!  They had a bridal party totaling 25!  You might wonder, who is really THAT awesome to have that many close friends to be in their wedding party?  Well…..Ali & Tim, that’s who :)  And truly they are such wonderful individuals that together they are dynamic.  I photographed their rehearsal dinner as well and it was so fun getting to know their families and friends and of course totally awesome hanging with their wedding planner Kelly Flora Ruf as well!!!!

My associate photographer, Nate Robinson was shooting with me all day.  So a big thanks for all of his help as well!!!!!

I have to show a couple of shots from the end of the rehearsal dinner at Brio on the plaza!!  Ali always carries herself with such grace, even when she is in the fountain :)

The wedding day!!!!  Getting started at the Rapheal!

Hello fabulous dress!!!

I bet you can’t look at the next few pictures without feeling a tear creep up 😉

While I was hanging with the girls, Nate was taking pics of the guys getting ready.  When I saw this photos and the concentration on Tim’s face, I was cracking up!!!

Boy did I LOVE the flowers!!!!!!

The girls before the ceremony!!

And the first time Tim saw Ali on there wedding day was when she was walking down the aisle!!

I think they spied me trying to get a shot of them from the side :)

hahaha!  Fun guys for sure!

I am going CRAZY about this!!!!!!!

They kind of made my job easy if you haven’t been able to tell 😉  with all of their super gorgeousness!!!!!!!

I love this look :)  So sweet!

Then we were off to the reception at Californos!!!  The food is always soooooo good there!!!!!!

I have to say that I laughed so hard I could barely focus my camera during these speeches!!!  I am so glad for hd video on my camera for moments like these!!!  The look on Tim’s face on this first on says it all 😉

The outside patio area with all of the string lights at Californos is soooooooo awesome!   Outside string lights = happy spot :)

There was some fun dancing going on for sure!!!!!

And then for the sparkler fun!!!!

Now this is fun!!!  I ran around them like a crazy person sprinkling fairy dust while Nate had the camera on a tripod :)

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!
