Jessica + Bobby: A romantic gold and champagne wedding on the water

Jess and Bobby, where do I begin? They have been 2 of the best people to work with. I traveled up to Richmond for their engagement session and they opened up their home to me as if I was family. I was able to explore Richmond with these two and Jess’s best friend Casey. After their engagement session I had a completely new love for city views. They came back home to Virginia Beach to tie the knot at the Water table this October. They danced the night away with DJ Bobby B and were cheered away off into a Charter boat glow stick exit.

Jessica and Aaron first laid eyes on eachother at crossfit. After Aaron popped the question on the beach to Jessica (where he had her sisters remove her blindfold and the rest of their family surrounding them) the wedding planning began. These two planned the most gorgeous summer event with warm tones of Gold, mint and blushes. What better setting than the Woman's club of Portsmouth to exchange vows under the warm glow of those classic chandeliers?!

Now when you are engaged to a Police officer you can find super creative ways to decorate your dessert table. Jessica chose to decorate their cake table with colorful donuts of every flavor your sweet tooth can imagine. Amazingly Glazed outdid themselves with the donut bar. Fluttering flowers did not disappoint with their flowers and timeless centerpieces that consisted of gold elements with blush flowers, mint and pinks (check out the arch with the hanging carnations...STUNNING!).

When you see these two together you just instantly feel their love for one another. When they first caught a glimpse of one another walking down the aisle you could see the tears in their eyes.

After the ceremony and formal photos, DJ Barry Mckay helped the couple bust out on the dance floor with some killer moves, from twirls to jumps, they nailed it! Check out the moves Jessica's dad has? I could not leave out the matron of honor speech/song that Jessica's sisters knocked out of the park with their own lyrics written to the beat of the lion king song, and their epic dance... with a polite mic drop at the end haha!

There is nothing better than photographing a couple who truly loves each other. It was an honor to capture your big day! Cheers to many years of happiness Jessica & Aaron!!
