A Summer Wedding at Chevy Chase Country Club: Sara & Chris

post filed in:

Wedding

 

One of the things that made this wedding so special, was that it wasn’t just a wedding, but also a vow renewal! It’s truly something unique this year, but I love it. It’s so fun for me to see my couples a year after their wedding, renew their vows and celebrate with all their friends and loved ones. 🙂

This past weekend was no different and while there were many sweet moments. Here are the Top 5 Moments from Chris & Sarah’s wedding, a Watson Wedding tradition…

 

#5. Confetti! This is such a small detail, but I LOVED that Sara brought confetti with her in the morning and I especially love the shots were were able to get with it. 🙂

#4. Their friends. Truly an amazing group of people. From their bridal party, to past roommates and fellow Mizzou alumni. There were so many special groups of people at their wedding and I’m so happy we were able to capture them.

#3. The first look with Dad! Truly a special moment between a father and daughter. As a Daddy’s Girl, these always get me and Sara’s first look with her Dad was no exception. You’ll have to scroll to check it out. 😉

#2. Tilly! I LOVE when my couples find a way to bring their pups for part of their wedding day. 🙂 It usually takes a little more coordination, but it is always worth it!

#1. Finally, coming in at number 1, sunset photos. 🙂 This was such a special moment! While sunset is almost always on the list for me, it’s not every wedding that we actually get stunning color in the sky. Sara & Chris, thank you so much for trusting me, for coming outside and sneaking in a few last shots. 🙂 #WorthIt!
