The day started with the girls getting ready at Jaclyn's childhood home. All of the girls sat around her to give her their gift; handwritten notes placed in a vintage window for Jaclyn to look at in the future days. It was such a fun moment to be apart of and witness. From there; it was to the church which was gorgeous in it's own right. Jaclyn and Jeff decided not to see each other before the ceremony which makes that crying reaction down below 100% authentic! Jaclyn was all tears as well as she came down the aisle with her dad. I don't think there was a dry eye there!
After the ceremony, we all headed to Park Ridge Country Club to take all of their formal portraits. Let me just say this; MOST FUN bridal party ever! The guys were down to do whatever silly antics I had them do and the girls seriously rocked their smizes. The couple's formals are some of my favorite to date; that cathedral length veil didn't hurt either!
As we headed into cocktail hour, little paper flowers served as the escort cards for guests to find their seats. These were handmade by the bride and were oh-so-amazing! The reception ballroom was filled with twinkle light backgrounds for the couple's first dances and it made for some gorgeous dance-floor photos. Everything about this wedding was a photographer's dream and I'm so honored I was the one who was able to capture it for these two! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Sanders!
