Carla & Adam's Wedding | Harrisburg, PA



This weekend I hit Harrisburg for Carla & Adam's wedding, and had such a great time. It was the first wedding I've shot where I didn't meet the bride & groom until I walked into their hotel rooms the morning of the wedding! Carla's uncle is actually the one who found me, and put everything together -- when I met him and his wife Mary on Friday morning to check out the ceremony and reception sites, I knew it was going to be an awesome wedding.

Carla and Adam turned out to be a totally sweet couple with an incredible family. The whole day was so relaxed and ran so smoothly, and the weather was absolutely gorgeous. In fact, it was so beautiful, it's taken me 2 long days just to sift through the photos to put together this blog! Anyway, here they are.....

The dress, the flowers, and the bride:





Her shoes were fabulous!





Next time I have to get all fancied up and wear makeup, I'm calling Carla for advice -- she did an incredible job!





Taking the curlers out of the flower girls' hair was a process! Here are Carla and her Aunt Mary trying to untangle them from little Lauren's hair.... Poor kiddo! Luckily they were able to fix her 'do and she came out looking adorable.





Meanwhile, next door....





Adam looked a little nervous in the morning, but by the time the ceremony was starting he was all smiles.





Carla's dress was gorgeous and really suited her...









I love the way the light is hitting her veil and gown here...





The ringbearer made it down the aisle like a champ!









The ceremony took place in a little park behind a family member's house, right in front of a flowing creek.





During the ceremony, Carla's flowergirls made good use of their leftover flower petals by throwing them on Carla's train (great idea, ladies!). The petals went along for the ride as Carla & Adam greeted their guests...









How cute is this little guy in his vest and tie?!





This shot just makes me happy.





The pint-sized guests ran the show at their cocktail hour (not to worry, that's water they're all chugging)!





The cake-cutting got a little wild (this was one of the calmer frames).....





The couple who caught the bouquet and garter were too cute!









Congratulations Carla & Adam! It was so much fun being part of your amazing day... And thanks again to their Uncle Ron who totally embarrassed me with his sweet little speech as I was leaving that night -- you guys are a wonderful family! I'll keep an eye out for you at the Penn State tailgates this fall!
