The day was perfect.  The setting, the weather, the couple, the family, the friends, all perfect.  From the whimsical colors to the chic wedding party, the emotional vows to the warm party guests, I can only sum it all up in one word: Perfect.

Christy is one of the most beautiful brides I’ve ever met.  As I photographed her all morning, I imagined Adam seeing his bride for the first time.  What does it feel like to marry the girl of your dreams?  What does it feel like to be the luckiest guy in the room?  And as for her… What does it feel like to know that no matter where you fall asleep, he’ll scoop you up and carry you to bed?  What does it feel like to giggle and cry at the same time because he makes you the happiest girl in the room?

For Christy + Adam, I Love You means just that.  Throughout the evening, their family and friends chatted amongst themselves and the recurring statement was ‘they belong together’.  I couldn’t agree more.

The witty Adam sent one of his groomsmen to surprise Christy with a note and locket.  Inside the locket, a photo of… wait for it… HIMSELF.  Sure made Christy happy for some reason =)

Sometimes, ‘I Love You’ means a superhero cape from your wife on your wedding day.

Love this moment…

This next image is the reason why I had an awkward shaped bruise all along my right leg for the next week.  Here’s the formula for disaster: 50mm + tight room + lots of Filipinos + flimsy chair.  You get the idea.
