Weekend Catch Up!

My weekend started on Friday (apologies for no blog post) where I woke up bright and early to head to the gym and run a thousand errands out and about! Friday night, Kyle and I had both of our families come together for dinner, so of course I spent the entire day trying to get the house together as well as dinner prepared. I don’t get to do this very often, but I am glad I had the motivation to decorate a little bit as I’m planning to have some photographers over this week to hang out. šŸ™‚ If you are a photographer and want to join us at my new place, email me at info@stephaniemessick.com. Would love to have you!

As everyone in VA knows, we had a terrible storm Saturday. For an outdoor wedding, it was a little difficult to conquer but we took on the challenge and succeeded! In fact, this was my very first wedding out of all the ones I’ve ever done where it was consistently raining the entire day. So it does not happen very often. The most important thing was that my bride and groom did not let it stop them from having one heck of a celebration! Haha! I’ll be sure to share their story and photos this Wednesday!!! šŸ™‚

Here are some sneak peeks from this weekends’ wedding/engagement! I have such GORGEOUS couples!!!!
