Abby & Tyler {4.23.11}

Last weekend I was so lucky to attend the beautiful wedding of Abby & Tyler! The day was perfect! Their wedding colors were a modern mix of yellow, silver and black. The weather held out for us and the chance of thunderstorms gently turned into sunshine!

I met up with the girls at Fringe Salon where they were getting all dolled up! We then went on to the ceremony and reception venue. All of the events for the day took place at Abode Venue. Abby and her family, including Tyler's aunt Lisa made sure everything looked perfect! Abby made most of the decor herself! Abby's bouquet along with the bridesmaids bouquets were provided by Dillons Floral.

Abby and Tyler decided to do a First Look. If you have never heard of this, its simple. Its a special time prior to the ceremony for just the Bride and Groom (we are standing from afar capturing this for you!). This is the WOW moment for the couple without the stress of 200 guests watching in the background! The emotion and expressions from a First Look usually are more natural and raw than during the ceremony. This also gives you plenty of time to do your formal photographs prior to the ceremony as well.

The ceremony was beautiful! After the ceremony, all we had to do was grab a few quick wedding party images and head to the reception! In lieu of a traditional wedding cake, Abby and Tyler did an amazing cupcake stand! The cupcakes were provided by Sweet Treats by Jodie. I personally tried the red velvet and it was amazing!! Once the wedding party was announced, they started the dinner line. Blue Moon Catering provided the food.

The best man and maid of honor made a heartfelt toast during dinner. After dinner, Abby and Tyler got to play The Newlywed Game with the help of Bill from Accent Mobile. It was so much fun seeing their answers! The new Husband and Wife shared their first dance together and the party continued throughout the evening!

Congrats you two!! Here are some of my fav's from their wedding! You can view their full gallery HERE.
