Thu and Heath are married

This wedding blog is long over do! A beautiful wedding at the Missouri Botanical Gardens in the Japanese Garden. We were lucky enough to have the rain hold off! We started off at the Ritz-Carlton where Thu was getting ready. Then headed over to the Gardens for before pics and the ceremony. After the ceremony and a few pics we went to the Hyatt for a moving Chinese Tea Ceremony. The day concluded at Windows Off Washington for the reception and lots of great dancing.
Here are just a few of our favorite images from the great day:

These fabulous shoes were a gift from the
head designer for Bebe! Thu had an identical pink pair to match her Chinese dress she wore to the reception.

I absolutely loved the lanterns hanging from the trees!

The gorgeous flowers by Artistry.
Rumor has it that the programs were done by Heath, he did a great job!
The delicious cake by Truffes.

Thu and Heath, Thank you for letting us be a part of your special day! Congratulations.

Allison and Patrick are married!

What a great time we had over the Memorial Day weekend. Saturday's wedding was at the Lake of the Ozarks in the gorgeous home of Allison's dad. The weather was perfect and the views were spectacular! The food was also great from Ozark Bar-B-Que! It was a nice intimate wedding and we really felt like we were among friends. A great time was had by all as you can see in the pics.

Allison and Pat had cupcakes brought in from The Cakery in St Louis, they were simply delicious!

I told you the views were spectacular!

The flowers were provided by At The Lake Flowers, they were simply gorgeous!
The house across the cove was launching water balloons at us with a giant sling shot, everyone was cheering them on!
This one made it, landed right in the pool.
So a few of the guys decided to go get their own ammunition, and launched a counter attack!
"Painting with Light"
I know I usually end with a painting with light image, but this image seemed more appropriate. Allison did a great rendition of "Baby Got Back"!
Allison and Pat, Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your day!

Courtney & Jesse Engagements

What a fun engagement session with a great couple! Coby took Courtney and Jesse to some great places around Alton, I wasn't even sure some of these shots were taken in the Alton area! The last few shots were taken at Courtney's parents place, which has some of the most amazing landscaping I have ever seen!
We are looking forward to their wedding next month!
