The day was the best of the two of them: Southern charm and Italian class.  Her Dad wore spurs and his Grandmother flew in from Italy.  The aura of elegance surrounding every part of George and Heather’s day was perfectly fitting for their relationship.

They met while working together at Al Fresco, the BEST Italian restaurant in Newport News (Zach and I had our rehearsal dinner there before our wedding in 2009!).  As the relationship grew they traveled together to Texas and Italy to meet their families and I LOVED that they documented each place they’ve been at their reception.

George and Heather, thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to capture your day.  You two are are just the sweetest!

Heather you are stunning!  And then we snuck outside for a little kissing in the rain!  Magical.  Grandma had some moves!  She flew in from Italy for this!  Love this one of Courtney and her man!  I was her recruitment counselor and she was secretly my fave!Beck and Rachel!!  Loved seeing y’all!  The guys got some serious air time!

Appropriately ended with cigars.
