Maria and Matt had a beautiful fall wedding at Ravisloe Country Club this past October, and did not let a few sprinkles of rain stop them from enjoying the wedding day or having an outdoor ceremony in the courtyard! We started the day off with getting ready and a first look before the ceremony so that Maria and Matt could enjoy cocktail hour with thier family and friends.

I just love the smiles and all the excitement in the air during first looks. I really feel that it makes the wedding day a lot less stressful then trying to cram a ton of pictures into a short hour between ceremony and reception, plus then the couple misses all of thier party!

The reception was filled with so much love for the happy couple, with so many important toasts from all Maria’s brothers and Matt’s loving father and of course the wedding party. It was so touching. Then it was time to get the party started and let the dancing and fun begin!! Hands down this was one of the sweetest first dance sets we had all year! Plus Matt rocked out with his mother, so much fun!

Congratulations Maria and Matt! I wish you nothing but love and laughter as you begin your happily ever after!
