Weddings are about to slow down for a month, so that means I better crank out as many blog posts as I can before life goes nuts again. Over the past two months, I’ve been in four different states shooting weddings and engagement sessions. June was really crazy because I was either in Kansas or Kansas City for every wedding, so it felt like I kept driving back and forth. One of those great weddings was Fizzi and Dylan.
This was one of those situations where I hadn’t met the couple in person, so I didn’t know exactly what to expect. We had talked before but that’s not the same as in person action. I quickly found out how much fun I was going to have. Fizzi’s three brothers were hilarious. They were making faces and laughing and just doing silly things all day and I loved it. The guests were also a blast, so it all equalled one really fun day.
The venue was the Lincoln Event Space. It was a bit strange. The surrounding buildings didn’t really look that great, but there was this fancy old building in the middle of it. From what I learned, it used to be the post office, which explains the architecture, but someone had bought it and turned it into a wedding venue. The cool thing about this place was that there was an upstairs with a lot of windows and light and a groom’s quarter. Then, downstairs it was dark and moody, with a bar, and the bridal suite.
Out of all the wonderful things that happened throughout the day, I enjoyed the dancing the most. This crowd was on fire. The floor was packed and people were bouncing off the walls. I kept in the middle of it and kept catching all types of hilarious moments. One of those moments was the bride’s reaction to when she dropped her drink.
I’ve said it so many times, but I am so blessed that I get to work with people like Fizzi and Dylan. They are pure joy and kindness and it makes my life so easy. I’ve got two more weddings that were just as much fun. I’ll try to post them soon!
