A Summer Wedding at Meson Sabika: Jess & Drew

post filed in:

Wedding

 

Jess and Drew got married this past Friday and their wedding was beautiful! I remember when I first talked with Jess and Drew. I loved getting to hear all their excitement for their wedding day and to be able to see it all come together was beautiful. 🙂

While there were so many memorable or unique parts to their wedding day, I wanted to share just the first five that came to mind. A Wedding Wednesday tradition.

 

#5. All the beautiful and totally custom invitations and paper. 🙂

Jess & Drew have a family member who owns a print company. The invitations, morning schedule for the groomsmen, welcome signs, all designed and printed by family and absolutely beautiful. A unique detail people may not have known, but they certainly appreciated. 🙂

#4. The lucky penny that Dominic found for Drew!

As we were headed inside after photos with the groomsmen, Dominic shouted, “Drew quick! A lucky penny! It’s just for you.” Drew picked it up, we took a photo and I think the penny even worked! There was no rain all day even though there had been a 40% chance.

#3. The first look that Jess shared with her brother Dominic. It’s not very often that Brides do a first look with their brother and I just thought it was so sweet! You’ll have to scroll to see what I mean. 😉

#2. The fun Groomsmen gifts! I just felt like they were perfect. A morning schedule so all the guys knew when and where they needed to be. LOVE THAT! A lotto ticket for fun and custom cufflinks to make sure everyone looked excellent for the wedding. Creative, custom and fun. 🙂

#1. The surprise that Drew and his friends did for Jess with the help of Dominic… a medley of Disney music re-vamped with smart lyrics for the couples wedding day. Jess was so surprised and guests loved it! This really is a wildly talented group and getting to see them in their element truly awesome!
