Amanda + Josh {Wedding}
I met Josh and Amanda just a few weeks prior to their wedding day. As soon as I met Amanda at our consultation lunch, I knew she was going to be a gorgeous bride. Any time I had a question, she was always so pleasant and thoughtful. I met Josh shortly after when I drove down to Shidler/Pawhuska to check out the church and reception area. He warned me from the beginning he was not all about taking pictures, so I appreciated the warning. :) He was very nice to chauffeur me around from one location to the other.
Decor
The church was small, but packed full of friends and family excited to share their special day.
I loved the decor. Rustic themed, they incorporated all things country. The wood pieces hanging at the end of the pews were adorable.
Pre Ceremony
While Amanda was getting ready to head to the church, I headed to the lodge to snap a few photos of Josh getting ready. The men were in good spirits laughing and joking. It’s always nice to walk in and everyone is just having a good time.
The bride anxiously waiting for the ceremony to start :)
Isn’t she just gorgeous!?
Ceremony
Amanda’s little girl Rowdy :)
First Look
I love his expression – like he just saw the prettiest woman in the room ;)
Reception
The food was A-MAZING. Most of it was wrapped in bacon! When in doubt, wrap it in bacon. BACON NEVER FAILS.
Look at that spread! There was a reason the food was so delicious. Not just anyone can get The Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond, to cater your wedding except for Josh :) Let me take a brief moment to express how AWESOME it was to be in the lodge where she films her cooking show. I did my best to play it cool…so much so, I didn’t even introduce myself by name. She only knows me as “the photographer.” Way to go Cristal.
My mouth is watering…maybe I shouldn’t have blogged these food photos on an empty stomach.
Tiffany Poe is the mastermind behind this beautiful wedding cake.
Beautiful Bride
I love this photo. Kinda steamy ;)
My favorite moment: cutting the cake
Josh delicately feeds Amanda her piece of cake…
From this photo, I don’t think Amanda plans on doing the same lol.
BAM!
First Dance
I wish Josh and Amanda nothing, but happiness. Shooting your wedding was an honor and I thank you for giving me the opportunity to capture your special day. It gave me a chance to get out of the city and see parts of Oklahoma I had never seen. I had so much fun!
