Ashton Gardens Wedding: Emily & Rob

Emily and Rob…. They’re just plain sweet. The second you meet them, you feel as though you’ve known them forever. It’s weird.. But in the best possible way. :) Two weeks ago I had the honor of documenting Emily and Rob’s wedding day at Ashton Gardens. And although the rain was unlike anything Houston’s seen in a long while, it could not deter this beautiful day from unfolding perfectly in front of 160 of their most loved family and friends. E & R – I hope you enjoy this sneak peek at your wedding day images as much as I enjoyed spending it with you. All my love! XOXO!!Emily and her girls did some final primping right at Ashton Gardens, which is always so lovely and accommodating. A huge thank you to the AG staff, and namely our coordinator for the day, Katelyn Kohli. Also, check out Em’s phenomenally gorgeous dress below!Pause. Rewind… I am pumped to fiiinally be able to show off some of Emily’s bridal images!E.. Seriously. Look at you!
Pause. Fastforward… Emily’s heart races in preparation for the first look. I think this picture is so sweet. :)Rob completing some finishing touches.I was so thrilled Rob and Emily chose to have a first look! You can read more about why I feel it’s the best decision you can make for your wedding day HERE. And while you’re at it, check out THIS post on creating the perfect wedding day timeline. :)I told you! They’re SWEET!!Take this, rain. Ain’t no thang you can do to stop E & R from bringing it with the cuteness…Thankfully, the bigger drops let up for a bit. And we were able to capture this set that makes me smile with every glance.So this is love…Rob and his team. :)Striking Stems created the most gorgeous bouquets for Em and her girls.And a ceremony by candle light was about to begin!The exchanging of rings. And in case your eye isn’t immediately drawn to him, check out this little man on the right. He was HYSTERICAL during the ceremony. All sorts of cute smiles. :)The kiss. As I always tell my brides and grooms… TAKE YOUR TIME with this kiss. ;) They did.Gahhh. Joy!Some reception details!Sort of stoked about this perspective…The first dance.Followed by all sorts of craziness!And they’re off! As Mr. and Mrs. Keener!!

Happy Friday, friends!!
