What a remarkable day this was! I’m left with such a vivid impression of the sweetness and the palette of Alissa’s wedding to Daniel last Saturday. Grace and happiness defined the day, none more than the bride Alissa. What a lovely smile. She was so much fun to photograph–with her family and her bridesmaids–her happiness seemed calm and right on the surface. Alissa wore her Mother’s veil and carried a delightful bouquet of sunny daffodils and delicate orchids alongside wonderful roses and gerbera daisies. Daniel had matching hats for his groomsmen, but those didn’t make an appearance until the reception. I think he might have been a teeny bit nervous beforehand, however as I reviewed the images, you can see his face transform with pure love as Alissa walks up the aisle towards him. After the wedding mass, Alissa and Daniel celebrated with their friends and family at the Fairgate Inn. Toasts, dinner and dancing brought two families together to celebrate the beginning of another.
