When I met Brittany back in December, we had no idea how much we had in common! I get excited when I meet other women who have fallen in love with a man in uniform 🙂 Brittany was in the middle of having her fiancee deployed in the Army and was planning a wedding in Bakersfield while living in Texas. Another plus…ya’ll know I love my Texas and could completely relate! It was such a pleasure to finally meet Joel on their wedding day and be able to capture his love for Brittany and how much he adored her strength. It was an unusually cool June day as they got married at St. Josephs. Congratulations you guys, and thank you so much for letting me be a part of your day! Since I have SO many favorites, today’s post is Part 1 of 2 with getting ready details and the wedding party! Stay tuned for Wednesday’s post with photos from the ceremony and reception!
Details are so important and I love capturing them! The necklace and veil were Brittany’s mother’s and were such a beautiful touch to her wedding day.
Brittany has the best smile and was so excited to be getting ready and dressed for her big day surrounded by her girlfriends! I’m in love with the light at Little White Dress…so stunning!
The bridal party was so much fun to hang out with! There was constant laughter 🙂
Since I love details, you know I got uniform shots! 1st Lt. Rainey’s been some amazing places (Privet!) and is a proud member of the 1st Cavalry Division out of Ft. Hood. Thank you for your service along with the groomsmen who all traveled out to California to support him!
Sneak peak at the reception details…love love love the yellow and blue!
Stay tuned for Part 2 in Wednesday’s blog post!
