Samantha & Brant at Army Navy Country Club

Army Navy Country Club-001Samantha & Brant are two hysterical people with amazing senses of style.  I knew this wedding was going to be beautiful, memorable, fun, and full of personality, and boy was I right.  As soon as I walked in to Sam’s getting ready room and saw the bold colored dresses hanging in the window, I knew it was going to be a gorgeous wedding.  There was tons of pink and tons of glitter and sparkle.  Sam is a bit crafty, and she created all sorts of unique details so that she could surround their celebration in sparkly stuff.  To show their personality, S&B entered their reception running through a banner and confetti, and they walked down the wedding aisle, post-wedding, to “Another One Bites the Dust”.  And then they fed their guests a surprising and yummy meal of BBQ sliders and macaroni and cheese.  Everything about their wedding was unexpected and unique, just like Samantha & Brant.  I loved their wedding, and I love these newlyweds.  Congrats to the awesome couple!!

It's true - there are a lot of pictures of Emma.  It's not our fault, she kept doing cute stuff.  :)
