Ben and Raquel | Married!

So. I had been excited for Ben and Raquel's wedding for quite a while. Ok, I'll admit it, I was REALLY REALLY excited for their wedding!! Not only was I going to be able to travel to a new place, but I was going to be a part of their special day. And that was something to be quite excited over. :)

Ben and Raquel's wedding was the perfect representation of the two of them. It was relaxed, rustic, slightly non-traditional, and all-around FUN. The weather was absolutely perfect for their ceremony and the warmth of their guests warmed us throughout the reception when the weather turned a bit chilly.

Congratulations, Ben and Raquel!
Enjoy!

The dashing groom.

He couldn't wipe that smile off his face all day. :)

Raquel's reaction when she was informed Ben was right outside the window. 

Popping bubble wrap to get their minds off of nerves. It worked!

Father's First Look

And Ben's first look! I was SO stoked that they opted for a first look. It was such a sweet moment.

She got there...

...and he saw her.

His face says it all.

The ceremony.

Beautiful singing by Raquel's family 

And they were married!!! 

All the girls had ear cuffs. It was awesome.

Then my favorite part of any wedding - the bride and groom shots.
