It’s such a treat to get to photograph a wedding that includes some of my most favorite vendors of all time. Every detail of Karen and Dan’s wedding was quirky and unique and perfectly reflected them as a couple. Also, purple is my favorite color! I loved the shoes and the velvet cape that Karen chose to complete her look. The combo of red and purple was so royal and just an amazing choice for a winter wedding. One of my all time favorite things about this wedding was the gorgeous cake. I have never seen a frank lloyd wright inspired cake before, but it makes sense that if you wanted one, Tipsy Cake, would be the one to make it!
The ceremony was also very personalized to Karen and Dan’s taste. It was emotional and fun and anything but cheesy. Which was so them. Even the party was rocking with some of the most fun party music I’ve heard in a long time. All in all, it was a picture perfect day.
