Kristen and Jason have a wonderful love story that dates back to grade school and I’m super excited to share it with you on this week’s episode of #weddingwednesday!

With a first planned later in the afternoon, we started with both the bride and groom in seperate rooms…the girls doing girl things and well the guys, throwing back a few shots to take the edge off 🙂

We’ve never done a first reveal on board a trolley before, so we were thrilled to use this backdrop with Kristen and Jason.  The best part is the bridal party was witness to it all thanks to all the windows!

With the initial jitters out of the way, we traveled to La Massaria at Bella Vista for portraits, ceremony and the reception.  The groomsmen gifts came in handy a few times and not just as props…someone has to keep the guys in line!

After the fun and high energy portion with the bridal party was complete, we stole away with the bride and groom for their portrait session.  This couple has many things to celebrate, not  only was it their wedding day but Jason is Cancer FREE!!!

The grounds at La Massaria Bella Vista are certainly vast and beautiful.  There are endless locations to shoot, and we had tons of time to work with.  Kristen and Jason were even able to have some down time to relax and prepare for their ceremony.

La Massaria at Bella Vista’s patio is the perfect spot for a ceremony.  The musicians in the background really set the tone for a beautiful ceremony.

With lots of refreshment and hors d’oeuvres in their bellies, the guests were certainly ready to party the night away and celebrate Kristen and Jason.

Congratulations to the bride and groom.  We are truly better people having been witness to your special love.  Best wishes to you both in Tennesee!
