A Summer Wedding at Cantigny: Jackie & Julius

post filed in:

Wedding

Jackie & Julius wedding this past Saturday was a wedding to remember! While there were many memorable parts to this couple’s wedding, I wanted to share just the top three. A Wedding Wednesday tradition. : )

#3. I don’t know if you remember, but there was a lot of rain on Saturday…

I was so nervous we wouldn’t be able to get outside. I shouldn’t have been though. When we asked Jackie & Julius what they wanted to do, they took one look at each other and then said, “Let’s head outside!”

I couldn’t believe it and I’m SO glad Jackie & Julius were game! The smiles were genuine all day long as we laughed about the rain, and it’s a wedding day we will never forget. Scroll to see a funny behind the scenes photo when we did veil photos in the rain. You’ll see what I mean. ; )

#2. The private vows that Jackie & Julius shared before their wedding ceremony. These are always a sweet moment and I’m so glad these two got a few minutes to themselves before getting married.

#1. The fun ways that Izzy showed up! Jackie & Julius rescued a miniature Grayhound named Izzy and it was so fun to see the cute ways that they incorporated her throughout the day. : )

Jackie & Julius, THANK YOU so much for having us! Your wedding day was truly one for the books and I’m so grateful we got to share it with such a kind, thoughtful and sweet couple. Thank you. : )
