Intimate and meaningful. Everything about Elizabeth and Patrick's wedding day seemed so personal and completely focused on the fun, yet relaxed, connection between this sweet couple. Close family and friends were there to celebrate a long-awaited day that was obviously a meaningful occasion for all involved.

Congrats Elizabeth and Patrick!

Questions for the Bride & Groom!

What was your favorite moment of the day?

Elizabeth: Getting to drive away from the church, knowing, "we are finally married!"
Patrick: The moment right after we got married, when we were standing in the bridal room, goofing off, waiting to go into the reception.

What is your funniest memory?

Elizabeth: When Patrick and I cut the cake and we were walking off and he stepped on my dress and broke the bustle. It was actually hilarious!
Patrick: When Elizabeth's brother, Frank, who was a groomsman, gave me fist pump coming down the aisle, and then all the other groomsmen did the same.

What was your favorite detail?

Elizabeth: Practicing with my dad in the back of the church right before we walked down.
Patrick: Maybe it's not technically a "detail," but seeing Elizabeth for the first time.

If you did a "First Look" and saw each other before the ceremony, why did you do this and would you do it again?

Elizabeth: We did all of our pictures, including the "First Look" first because we wanted the wedding itself to be quick, easy, and stress-free. That way, we didn't have to bother trying not to run into each other, and neither us nor our guests had to wait hour(s) for us to finish taking pictures. I would definitely do it again!
Patrick: What she said.

If you could change one thing about your day, what would it be?

Elizabeth: Found someone to make sure everyone in the wedding party was there on time!
Patrick: I would have made everyone not stress so much!

What was your favorite wedding purchase?

Elizabeth: As cliche as it sounds, my dress.
Patrick: Our wedding bands.
