Jill + Brian

" In true love the smallest distance is too great, and the greatest distance can be bridged."

I absolutely love this quote. Jill and Brian used this on the beautifully designed luggage tag place cards they handmade for each of their guests. This wedding in their mutual tiny hometown of Coldwater, Ohio (where Brian first discovered he had a crush on Jill back in middle school) was every bit a labor of love. Jill, a clothing designer by profession, and her mom literally transformed their town's local American Legion hall into one of the most beautiful and elegantly designed reception spaces I've ever seen (and I've been to a LOT of weddings!) I don't think there was a single detail overlooked. From the table settings, to the wall draperies, lighting, chandelier and bar decor, it was fabulous.





What's even more fabulous was the fact that Jill wore her grandmother's wedding gown — with a few alterations that her mother was able to do. Talk about 3 generations of teamwork! jill definitely pulled off the vintage look perfectly.










And what's even more fabulous than anything else are Jill and Brian in general. I couldn't have asked for more laid back, fun, gracious and stunning people than these two. Thanks again so much for hiring me and trusting me with your big day! I hope that you love your sneak peek - I know I sure do!





The church was incredible.



This couple definitely has cuddling and nuzzling down pat - was almost hard to get a bad shot! So cute.
