Tiffany + Michael :: Wedding

I absolutely LOVE Tiffany and Michael’s personalities. They are so cute in every way. Michael is a total goofball and Tiffany’s laid back approach to life completely compliments his humorous personality in every way. You may remember them from their engagement shoot I shot in the French Quarter. It was so much fun getting to know them that day. When the wedding day finally arrived, it was like we were all best friends. I love that. Throughout the wedding day, I would recommend little things to do, and Tiffany would respond each time with, “I trust you Courtney! Whatever you say.” — AWESOMENESS. That is the best thing you can do on your wedding day! Trust your vendors! Let them do their jobs, it’s why you hired us. : ) Tiffany literally didn’t stress about one thing, and because of it, I know she truly had the time of her life on her wedding day. Everything was perfect and Deirdre and I had such an awesome time documenting this extremely memorable day in New Orleans for this extremely beautiful couple.

Michael and Tiffany — thank you thank you… for everything. But mostly, for trusting me. It means more than you will ever know. I hope you will cherish these memories forever. xo

I LOOOOVED Tiffany’s Romona Keveza lace dress and sparkly Jimmy Choo shoes. Perfect.

The dress fit her perfectly.

The couple opted for a “First Look” before the wedding. BEST DECISION EVER. After all of the photos, and we were heading to the ceremony location, Tiffany told me she was SO SO thankful I had recommended the First Look. She absolutely loved every minute of it.

There are SO many great reasons for doing a First Look. A really great one is that we are able to get all of the bridal party photos out of the way. Which means, everyone gets to the reception that much sooner after the wedding!

Wedding time! Love this shot Deirdre got from behind.

So, Tiffany might just kill me for posting the following photo. But I will tell you why I am posting it… Some of my potential clients express concerns that if they do a First Look, they are afraid it will take away from the emotion of the moment when walking down the aisle. I am posting this photo to prove that is definitely not the case. Even though Tiffany and Michael had seen each other already, Tiffany got emotional and teary eyed as she walked down the aisle. It was a beautiful moment.

After the beautiful and traditional Catholic ceremony, we headed to the reception where the newlyweds entered excited and ready to celebrate!

Love when brides aren’t afraid to have a good time!

The End to a fabulous night!!
