Kathryn + Shawn. Summerfield Farms Wedding.

You guys are in for a serious treat today! Kathryn and Shawn have turned out to be one of my favorite couples and their wedding day was SO fun! In addition to the gorgeous design, personal details, and perfect fall weather, there were so many happy tears, so many smiles, and an incredibly fun dancing crowd. Some of my favorite things were :

– Kathryn + Shawn’s first look… Shawn had written in a journal that he gave to Kathryn after they had a few moments together. She asked, “Should I read it now?”. Shawn gave her the go-ahead and she opened it, read a couple of lines, and promptly closed the book saying “Nope! No. Can’t do that right now… There’s french and I’m crying already…” It was precious the way they both tried to dab her tears without messing up her stunning makeup!
– Shawn’s entrance to the ceremony to the “Imperial March” from Star Wars
– When Kathryn made it to the end of the aisle and Shawn promptly planted a kiss on her lips! Kathryn pushed him back and gave him a laughing “not until the end of the ceremony!!”
– The “mutual weirdness forever” details, based on the quote “We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.” by Dr. Seuss. So perfect for these two!

And finally, a little bit of history from Kathryn “Well initially we were sort of set up by one of Shawn’s ex-housemates. We were both vegan at the time (Kathryn, is no longer, she loves cheese too much) and this housemate decided we just HAD to meet. Eventually we did meet (after missing each other several times) at a Friendsgiving event held at Shawn’s house. We both also worked for Whole Foods, though when we met Shawn worked at a different store than me. After meeting one another nothing really happened. Then Shawn changed stores to the same one I was working at. Shawn also lived in a house with one of my closest friends from Whole Foods so we just sort of started hanging out more and more and eventually Shawn confessed his crush on me to our mutual friend, Liz (who is now one of our bridesmaids) and the rest is history!”
