\"Bride<\/p>\n

I had so much fun documenting Reanna and Michael’s wedding day!\u00a0 They started their day off with a first look in the outdoor ceremony space at Whitehall Columbia. They opted to do their ceremony indoors since it was August and hot but I’m glad they still did their first look outside.<\/p>\n

As you can see from the ceremony photos, a first look doesn’t mean there won’t be emotions during the ceremony and there were plenty during theirs! Their kiddos were all so excited to be a part of the day and added so much love to the day.<\/p>\n

After their ceremony we headed over to Olmsted Falls and down to David Fortier River Park for photos alongside the waterfalls and covered bridge. Luckily the rain stayed away and we were able to get all of their photos done pretty quickly as it wasn’t too busy and the ladies were willing to go down to the waterfall area!<\/p>\n

Their reception was at the Holiday Inn in Independence right off of I-77 and it was the first time I’d been there. It’s HUGE!!! I loved all the kids doing their introductions with their own dances (and push ups) which was followed by a group shot by the adults in the bridal party.<\/p>\n

After dinner all the special dances took place and I loved that Reanna and Michael took time to dance with their parents and their kiddos! It was so sweet. I apparently was feeling the black and white for this set (don’t worry they got color options alongside their black and whites!).<\/p>\n

It was just such a great day with a lovely couple! Many congratulations to you both!<\/p>\n
