Catherine & Joshua Say I Do | Rocky River Vineyards | August 15, 2015

Janel & I met Catherine at our bridal fair last August. Catherine came into the studio with Joshua to meet both of us since he wasn't at the show.  We all knew instantly that it was a good fit.

Both Catherine & Joshua were calm and put together the day of their wedding. It was nice to see the certainty that they had about their marriage. The bridal loft was the perfect place for Catherine to get ready with her 3 bridesmaids and her mother.

Joshua arrived at the vineyard shortly after we did. He had a great group of guys that kept me laughing and supported him through the day. Naturally the boys were ready far before the girls so they had time to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather before the ceremony began. 

How many bridesmaids does it take to get a bride in her dress? In this case, all 3!!

Catherine had such a sweet bond with her mother. & Catherine is very much a spitting image of her too.

Even though Catherine and Joshua didn't want to see each other before the ceremony, we were still able to get a few First Looks in! Catherine's dad was so sweet, giving her one last kiss before she was to become Joshua's wife. Catherine's brother had the widest eyes and teared up a little bit seeing his big sister all dolled up.

The beautiful barn became the set for the ceremony. The vineyard didn't fall short on awesome details from the wine barrels to the corks and even wine bottles for us to use. 

Beautiful bridesmaids cheering Catherine on.

Handsome groomsmen to keep Joshua in line.

Butterflies could be seen everywhere on the sunny day, absolutely beautiful. & How gorgeous are their rings?!

After dating for 6 years Joshua & Catherine became husband and wife in front of all of their closest family and friends. 

It's not often that we have such an exquisite train and veil so we had to show it off a little. 

When the twinkle lights came on in the vineyards at sunset we knew we had to sneak the couple away for a few golden hour photos.

The cake was just as delicious as it looked. I was wondering who would be the one to smear cake but both Joshua & Catherine fed each other nicely. Catherine's sister serenaded the newlyweds during their first dance. 

Thank you for letting Head Over Heels be part of your big day. You are an amazing couple and we can't wait to share the rest of the photos with you. Leave Mr. & Mrs. Morrison some love!!
