~Jessica & Mike's wedding at St. Joseph's & Pickering Barn, by Van Whye Photography~

Funny thing . . . when Jessica contacted me I knew that her name sounded familiar.  Turns out she actually went to the same high school as me (Mt Si!), just a year younger! 
So I knew there might be some familiar faces at the wedding.

Seriously this bride is GORGEOUS (you'll see!).  

Jessica & Mike your wedding was a blast, and everything looked lovely.  
Jessica pretty much did all of the decor herself (with help of Mike, fam and friends), from the mercury glass vases to the cake pop favors, to the escort cards and more.  
This girl has skills and style:)

ALSO Happy 1 year anniversary love birds (one day late)! 
I hope it has been the best year, and know that it just gets better!!!

And now for the handsome groom . . .

Now that everyone is ready and relaxed, time for the 1st look!

One of my favorite things is these photos that capture the groom's expression of his beautiful bride to be:)

Her veil and train was perfect for a pretty Catholic wedding, right?!





Mr. & Mrs!!!































Now for the reception!


The cake was actually made by a family member! I couldn't believe it, it was so pretty!


(Jessica your cake pops were delicious!)





One of my fave parts was the toasts, everyone did SUCH a good job! 
Especially her MOH, who actually had a book that Jessica wrote to her when they were younger and it was HILARIOUS!!! So cute:)









Van Whye also provided a fun photobooth, it was packed all night long:)




Super adorable couple, right?!

Jessica & Mike thank you so much for trusting me with your big day, everything was amazing and what a great couple you make!!!

Congrats again Mr. & Mrs!!!
