I had SO MUCH FUN at this wedding. There were moments, when we were taking Meredith & Ryan’s portraits, when I was cursing with excitement and then I was offering to pay them to do more portraits on another day. They just looked so fabulous and they were willing to do anything. If the above picture doesn’t make it clear, then let me just write it out: Ryan & Meredith are cool. They are very real and down-to-earth. Meredith didn’t hesitate to hike up her dress and traipse through downtown Middleburg or in horse fields full of droppings. And after I apologized for my excitement during their couple portraits (and the happy cursing that accompanied it), Ryan said “Don’t apologize – that’s what we like about you!”. So a couple that will put up with Tracy’s happy profanity, a field of horse droppings, and crowds of people in Middleburg gets my biggest stamp of approval. Meredith & Ryan rule, and so did their wedding. Congrats, newlyweds!
These two had the cutest First Look outside of the Middleburg Country Inn, where Meredith got ready.
Meredith was confident that she wouldn’t cry on her wedding day so, naturally, she cried almost immediately. :)
Oh, Middleburg, how I love thee. Especially in fall. :)
Now THIS is how you wear a wedding dress.
The coolest wedding party:
After portraits in Middleburg and a few at the B&B, it was time to get married!
We had a few minutes of lovely light before the sun set.
… and then we had a colorful sunset!
A fun dance between Meredith & her father and an emotional one between Ryan & his mother.
The toasts were hysterical.
The dance floor was EPIC.
Congrats, Meredith & Ryan. Your wedding ruled.
