It was so much fun to work with JoVanna and Dave. From their fun engagement session with their dog Curly to getting some great pre-wedding shots in Shelter Gardens. Dave cracked me up when he started jamming to "You Got The Right Stuff" from good old NKOTB. JoVanna had the DJ play some oldies like Hippy Hippy Shake. Gotta love em! They tied the knot at the Unity Center of Columbia and celebrated at the historic Tiger Hotel.

A couple members of the wedding party decided to get silly
much to JoVanna's delight.

Rosa and Wes were wed at Les Bourgeois blufftop bistro in Rocheport. The pre-ceremony preparations took place at the School House Bed and Breakfast. Rosa and Wes weren't thrilled about being photographed but by the end of the evening they were asking when the photos would be ready so I think that is a good sign! Thanks guys for allowing us to document your big day.

The flower girls were entertained by the pond outside the Schoolhouse.

The bridemaids gave us their best Charlie's Angels pose.

Crista met Kurt while studying abroad in Australia. Little did she know she would end up marrying an Australian and making Australia her permanent home. When it came time to plan her wedding though, she decided to celebrate with friends and family in her home town of Jefferson City, MO. Crista's great taste and attention to detail was evident from her custom made gown and bridesmaids dresses to the themed reception tables. Even the Salon she chose (Bella Capelli) was beautiful and lent itself to some great pre-ceremony portraits.

There were so many fun spots in the salon that I just had
to give the shoes their own photo shoot.

Crista realized she still didn't have something borrowed or old. Her MOH offered to lend her the fun cocktail ring she had been wearing. Crista then asked if it happened to be old, only half serious, and her MOH replied, "Yes, it was my Grandmothers!" So there ya have it, MOH to the rescue.It is good to laugh and enjoy yourself on your wedding day!

Also couldn't resist that staircase.

My favorite from the day.

You can see where Crista gets her looks from!

(Okay, Dad had a part in it too ;o)

We had some fun at the Capitol.

Each table was named for a place special to the couple (some in the US, and some in Australia). The Jefferson City Country club flew both the American flag and the Australian flag to welcome the guests.

They danced their first dance to Kermit the Frog. How adorable is that?
