I just adore Kelsey and Chad. I kinda have a crush on them. They’re absolutely the cutest couple, they’re gorgeous, so fun to be around, and even more fun to photograph. I think their wedding was proof that you can have a casual, but still fabulous, wedding. The first time I talked to Kelsey and Chad they talked about how they wanted everyone to be comfortable at their wedding. Their having a great a relaxed time was their priority, and they made that happen. The wedding was held at the Barn (Vive la Ranch) on a gorgeous and cool November day. Shooting a wedding is exhausting no matter how great it is. But after their wedding I was so pumped (obviously I’m a child of the 90’s, forgive me) from such a great day that I was still full of energy. Anyway, I’ll let the pictures do most the talking.  This dress orginally had a bow on it. Kelsey altered it to have these vintagey little lovelies on it. She had a matching hair piece as well.

Now I gotta warn you about this first look. Its so much sweetness that you may not be able to handle it. I think most girls dream about a guy that adores them as much as Chad adores Kelsey. His expression from seeing her for the first time was absolutely priceless.

 Only followed up with an amazing kiss and expression! I could not have posed it better myself. I love when my couples get completely lost in eachother and don’t even seem to notice I’m there. Favorite!!And Kelsey’s reaction… ya know I love me some crying pics.

You just can’t get married at the Barn without a picture on the swing. Love it!Ooooh how I love this picture!!! And aren’t we loving the purple cardigan?? Such a fabulous touch and it fit the feeling of the wedding perfectly.

I’m just in love with the style of the wedding party! So unique and so striking!!

You can’t talk about this couple without talking about Addy. She’s probably one of the best dogs I’ve ever met. She helped her “daddy” walk everyone down the aisle, then sat and watched the wedding quietly. But weddings are tough, even for dogs, and Addy was pretty tired by the time the ceremony rolled around. At the Barn there’s a pond with a couple swans that live there. Well shortly before this picture, Addy had just about snagged her a swan for dinner. But luckily Chad yelled after her to stop and she immediately turned around and came and sat down. So she may have been pouting in this image. 🙂 Either way it makes me laugh.  

The favor for the guests was apple butter and jalepeno jelly. How cute is that?!

I dont know what it is about this image but I stinkin’ LOVE it!!! I seriously could have posted many, many more pictures but I had to stop myself. I can’t gush enough about this wedding and this couple. Kelsey and Chad, I wish you guys all the happiness in the world! And I expect to be invited over to your back porch for bbq and wine. 😉
