You pull up the long drive at Pere Marquette and the light seems to dance - even along the winding drive. There's something that sets the stage for a wedding day when the roads you travel to get there include scenic routes of the Mississippi and clear, blue skies...

It was just the two of them in the room.

Music played as she walked through the doors and looked ahead to Kyle. He was standing there, at the end of the aisle, just like he would stand during their ceremony. But this moment - the one that came just a few hours before they were Mr & Mrs - was for just the two of them...

They snuck away just after dinner and just before the first dances for a walk down memory lane.

Photos hung along the path - photos from their earliest years together and those baby photos you pull out at Christmastime. Jeffrey turned to Elisha, pulled her close, and looked at her in that classic Jeffrey-loves-Elisha kind of way...

Hair and makeup was wrapping up in the hotel room and I was getting started with paper details in the Hotel Vandivort ballroom. I pulled had just pulled everything out of my styling bag when the hotel staff said they needed the hotel room.

Whew! You just tackled another wedding and you're feeling all the feels.

You definitely teared up during the vows and first dances and you're a little extra giddy about how good golden hour was. I mean... so good. And yes, you feel like you need an appointment with a masseuse and a chiropractor, but you're doing what you love and it's so worth it!
