I suppose if you are the superstitious type, a Friday the 13th wedding is out of the question. But for Jenna and Mike, there couldn’t have been a better choice! It just so happens that these two lovebirds first met on a Friday the 13th. Although we heard them tell their story during our consultation, and some more during their engagement session, nothing compares to the play-by-play Mike’s best man gave during his toast! Having had the opportunity to watch them interact with one another, we know for certain they are absolutely in love with one another. The way they tenderly hold each other’s hands, make goofy faces/noises to get the other to laugh, and the huge smile that Jenna has on her face when she’s with Mike are just a few indicators we’ve picked up on.
When talking about their plans for their wedding day, they both said they wanted it to be fun, intimate, and to have a party feel. The Warehouse at the Cork Factory Hotel was the perfect space for the cocktail hour reception Jenna had envisioned. And there is no doubt that their family and friends had a wonderful time celebrating these two becoming husband and wife! Here are a few of our favorites from this special day!
Cheetah heels!
Jenna’s bouquet was ENORMOUS and beautiful too!
With or without the makeup, Jenna is a truly beautiful woman.
Jenna chose to do a first look with her dad just before seeing Mike for the first time. It was so incredibly touching!
All of the planning in the world doesn’t truly prepare you for how you will feel when all of the pieces come together and you are wedding day ready! Jenna and Mike each approved of the other’s look!
Being surrounded by loving and supportive family and friends who only want the best for you as a couple is such a blessing! This bridal party was also a lot of FUN!
Jenna and Mike asked their grandparents to be their flower girls and ring bearer. They did a fantastic job!
The new Mr. and Mrs.!
Oh, how we have missed the beautiful sun!
The fantastic staff at the Cork Factory transformed the ceremony space into Jenna’s cocktail reception, complete with a mac n’ cheese bar!
Jenna and Mike took the traditional garter and bouquet tosses to a whole new level! So. Much. Fun!
Jenna and Mike, it was a delight to capture these moments for you and your families. We couldn’t be happier for all of you (Oscar too)! Many blessings for a lifetime to love and rescue dogs 🙂
