Lisa + Mat’s wedding day started and ended with so much joy and all the fun in between! Weston Gardens is such a beautiful backdrop for a wedding and reception. And on this day, we were blessed with all the cloud cover and cool breeze! It made for a pretty magical night!
Philip and I have had the honor to shoot at Weston Gardens several times now and I have to say, it is always so wonderful to see how each couple makes it their own. There are so many configurations of how to set up your ceremony and reception, it is pretty amazing. Lisa and Mat had their ceremony under the alter by the wisteria. The fountain made for some pretty soothing sounds during the reception. Such a great bonus! Their reception tables were up on the lawn as well as the patio and their dance floor was down under the huge Oak tree. (Not sure if that’s an Oak tree but it looks like it to me!)
Lisa + Mat decided to have a first look and I am so glad they did! I find it to be so much sweeter and intimate than heading down the aisle with everyone watching. : ) The moment that they both saw each other… it just doesn’t get any better than that!
Not soon after, it was time to walk down the aisle. I have to say that one of my favorite moments of the day is when Lisa’s nephew told the flower girl (after they both walked down the aisle) that she left some of her flowers behind. I love that so much! It brought a smile to everyone’s faces.
The joy on Lisa + Mat’s face after their first kiss as a married couple was simply perfect! This is what love is all about! Their reception started with a prayer and a wonderful meal from one of their favorite restaurants. (Mesero) A few tearful toasts gave everyone the feels and then it was time to dance the night away! Lisa + Mat had taken dancing classes and their first dance was spot on! A beautiful song called “Penguin” by Christina Perry played while they swayed and spun. It was perfect!
The night ended with rose pedals in the air on the way to their getaway car… A Bentley! Congratulations to Lisa + Mat! It was a beautiful start to a life filled together.
