Happy Friday!! Nothing like a little reception goodness to start your weekend. I hope y’all have a great one planned! I have shoots every night from now through October 1st – woo! Good news for you guys. :-) I hope you all make it a great weekend and soak up this last little taste of summer.
Enjoy!
Okay, so Ryan’s family kind of fooled me on the day of the wedding. Here they were making me think they were super quiet and reserved all day, when in the midst of the mother-son dance, they went from fox-trottin’ to funky disco moves! Before you knew it, their sweet little dance to Dancin’ in the Moonlight turned into the perfect choreographed dance for all of Ryan’s family!
SO. MUCH. FUN!
Ice cream sundae bar. Need I say more?
Aaaaand…. my favorite. A photo booth!
Okay, so let me just fill you in on this DJ. He is the bomb DOT COM. Dot org. Dot net. His name is name is Brian Howe from Pure Energy Events and he is the bomb. Oh wait, we already covered that. I have never heard a DJ mix and transition the way this guy does. AMAZING. Let’s just say he made a Ke$ha fan out of this girl. haha We highly recommend Brian. Oh, and doesn’t he kind of look like Will Ferrell?
Part of our fun at a reception is doing some fun portraits of guests. Jesie was off working with this doll.
While I was out with our clients-turned-friends, Kristin and Michael and their little baby boy!!
And get this, my boyfriends brother and his family were guests at the wedding! This is Mike, Josh, Kayla, and Levi. Love them!
Off to do some bride and groom portraits, but not before grabbing a little post-dancing snack.
And check out this crazy bird we ran into on the side of the street!
Ahhh it was so gross.
Birds freak. me. out.
Ryan and Elizabeth, can we do it all over again??? I love you two! We’ll be seeing more of you soon!
So much joy to you,
René

No way! They danced to “Dancin’ in the Moonlight.” THat is so great! What a fabulous song choice! ;) Was it the King Harvest or Toploader version? Beautiful pics, Rene! You are so talented.
