I am reminiscing about our wedding day! Today Bjorn and I celebrate our one year anniversary and I thought it'd be quite appropriate to share some of my favorite photos...and to also brag a little bit about our wedding photographer (and my good friend!), Brett Denfeld from Brett Denfeld Photography!
Hurricane Joaquin decided to crash our wedding so I wasn't really sure what to expect when it came to pictures. Bjorn and I had planned to do a first look outside, with a beautiful view of downtown Fredericksburg in the background. Since there was a constant rain the entire day, we had to improvise a bit. We were still able to do our first look outside, but it was under a beautiful covered porch with gorgeous white balustrades and changing fall leaves in the background. I mean when I say Brett will find a way to make your photos STUNNING, she will really find a way even in the worst weather. Just take a look for yourself:
Beautiful, right?! I swear I think the rain helped make the pictures better than expected! And yes, that's me, crying during our first look. I cried a lot on our wedding day...and not because of hurricane Joaquin. I have always had a hard time holding back happy tears at weddings, so I knew waterworks at my own wedding was inevitable.
So enjoy looking at some of my favorite photos from my favorite day. Tell me which ones are your favorites in the comments below! And of course, go check out Brett Denfeld Photography to see all of her amazing work!

Blessed...and exhausted!
Still feeling so grateful for all who celebrated with us. BEST DAY EVER! Now we look forward to finally opening this bottle of wine tonight from one of my sweet friends. Isn't this the cutest gift idea??
Have a wonderful week, everyone! xo, Karoline
