Thad + Laura Wedding Part III: Ceremony & Reception

Here is the last installment of Thad and Laura's wedding. I usually don't split posts up like this but their wedding was so beautiful and it was a long day of shooting which meant I had a lot of good pictures to choose from! Hopefully seeing all three will do a more complete job in telling the story of the day.

The Wedding was at the L.A. Arboretum and was coordinated by Megan Bormacoff. She did a great job as you can see from all the details and how beautiful everything was.

A few of my favorites from the ceremony:

As part of his proposal, Thad washed Laura's feet as a symbol of Christ's love for us and his commitment to serve her. I forget the exact story, but I think he proposed on top of a tall building. A worker there said she had seen many proposals at that location, but his was the first with feet washing. As part of the ceremony, both Thad and Laura washed each other's feet. I had never seen it at a wedding before and it was just one of the many things that made their day very special.

Here are a few detail shots. They had this big "moon" light on a pole right by the dance floor. It was pretty sweet!

The grand entrance, first dance, and a few more from the remainder of the reception...

Congratulations Thad and Laura on your marriage and thanks for letting me be a part of such an awesome day!
