Dave + Kari: 6.12.09 Wedding Preview

Wow, what can I say about Kari and Dave and their absolutely stunning wedding day?? I am just blown away by this couple!!

Sorry for the massive post again, but I honestly got so carried away with this wedding that I could not narrow these down any more! Please be patient while the images load, its worth it :)

Kari and Dave are probably one of the sweetest and most sincere couples I have ever had the pleasure of working with! Kari looked just stunning in her Nicole Miller gown and Dave was so handsome in his Express suit! All the details that had been planned out for the day came out so lovely! The efforts of Kari, Jen and the team at Modern Day Floral truly paid off! When I walked into their ceremony and reception site at The Pinnacle Center in Hudsonville I felt as though I had walked into a true Victorian/garden wedding!

I hope the pictures can do this wedding justice :)

I started my morning off with seeing Julie Straiting walk in the door to do the make up for all the girls and was soooooo thrilled that she was there :) Julie really knows what she is doing and I couldn’t have been happier working side by side with her! I also want to give a shout out to Erin from Modern Day Floral who was there to do the Day of Coordinating! She really went above and beyond the call of duty and rocked this wedding! I look forward to working with her and her team again! And again a HUGE thank you to Darrin for all your hard work, you totally killed this one Darrin, I am so happy to have you on my team :)

I have so many fond memories of this wedding..from walking into the house where Dave had sent Kari a dozen long stem roses with a beautiful note attached to it, to Nigel (Dave’s brother) playing “I want to grow old with you” on the guitar during the ceremony, to the beautiful speeches by the Best Man and Maid of Honor and the first dance shared between Dave and Kari that just moved me to tears! I really could go on and on :)

Kari and Dave, you guys are the definition of love..I have never met a couple who was so at ease with each other and so truly in love as you two :) You guys make me want to be a better photographer and a better person :) I look forward to many years of friendship with you both!

Enjoy your preview, it was such an honor to have met and worked with you!

    Jen they are amazing! Of course I am a little bias but I love them. The detail shots are so beautiful - it shows the hard work you were at all day.
