Weddings of friends make weekends full of joy. Photographing this sweet and simple wedding day in Ames (loyal forever true!) was no exception. Brian and Rebekah planned their wedding in 5 months, but you’d never know it. Rebekah oozed grace and calmness as she prepared to marry Brian, while the boys were full of goofy giddiness. The couple opted out of a first look, making the moments just after their ceremony holy and marked by such tender love… so keep an eye out for that moment. ;) And a dance party followed like you wouldn’t believe! Grandparents, old friends, cousins, and past roommates celebrating joy and life and autumn and a Cyclone football win!
