Evergreen Wedding: Karen & Steve – Pt II

weddings

Good morning!  We pick up Part II of Karen and Steve’s Evergreen Lake House wedding just after the ceremony.

I love it when we go straight into the first dance.

The toasts were perfect!

Then all of the sudden, the bride and groom got the mic and started thanking… someone… I quickly realize that someone was ME!  What did I do?  Hid my blushing face behind the camera and kept on shooting.  And that’s when they started singing to me.

One of my personal, favorite wedding memories. They had a cake made just like theirs and told me not to eat this cake, but to eat theirs and enjoy mine with John. :-)

I love you guys…. Seriously.  Thank you!

The Evergreen Lake House is such a stunning wedding venue.

Loved the lantern send off at the end of the night!
