A family event. Columbus Wedding Photography

Bob and Sheila.  Married.
Bob is a dear friend of The Holt family.  Grandpa Holt (who married Jason and I) married Bob and Sheila.  It was such a touching and special ceremony.
My favorite part of a wedding day is always when the bride walks down the aisle.  Sheila looks GORGEOUS!  And Bob…he knows it!

Randy (on the left of Sheila) is Jason’s father.  And Andy (on the right of Bob) is his uncle.  And the girls on the outside are Bob and Sheila’s daughters.  It was a family event!  
Happiness and love.  Felt by all.
It was just contagious.
The first dance was “It’s Your Love” by Tim McGraw with Faith Hill.

Jenny watching her daddy soooo happy.
Sheila (and now Bob’s) grandson, Mason.  Isn’t he just ADORBS?!

Check out Ana and her new shootsac and fancy Nikon camera.  🙂  I (for the first time) shot in heels and a (very tight) dress…it was quite a challenge!

The Holt’s.  Don’t we just look so snazzy?!  I think Kristofer is REALLY starting to look like Jason’s little twin.
A couple fun cell phone pics of Jason and I.  It was AWESOME to step away from the camera and have some fun at the reception.  The dance floor was a HOPPING!

What was your most memorable moment from your wedding day?
Bride: That’s tough the night was filled with them, but I’d have to say dancing with my son. It was so special.
Groom: Waiting for Sheila to come around the corner outside too see her the first time in her dress

Favorite detail?
Bride: Everything! The cake, the flowers, the room and lanterns looked just like I’d envisioned, and the weather cooperated long enough to hold the ceremony outside! Marrying Bob! I can’t pick just one.
Groom: The cake was made from scratch by Sheila’s daughter and I love all the special decorative items she added.

Do you have any advice for future brides and grooms?
Bride: Hire a wedding planner! LOL Seriously…….I wish I would have had an opportunity to attend an event at North Bank Park before the wedding. There are very few things I would change, but all have to do with how I would have arranged things at the site and how it actually worked in action.
Groom: No long dragged out engagement. We did a lot in 5 months!

Is there anything you would change about your wedding day?
Bride: My Mom would not have had to leave early because she was soooooo cold. If I’d known how the weather and the caterer going in and out of the doors at one end of the building would impact the temperature at that end I would have come up with some way to fix it.
Groom: Would have calm pills available for my bride!!

Honeymoon:
Hocking Hills
