“He looked at her the way all women want to be looked at by a man.” – The Great Gatsby

^^I don’t mean that in an annoying, cliche way. I mean it in the zero hesitation, hearts full of the Lord kind of way. Rachael and Sean were glowing. Even on day 1 of their marriage, Sean’s every glance and move conveyed his intention of not only leading Rachael, but adoring her. I don’t think I’ve ever seen love like I witnessed at this wedding. Not just between the bride and groom, but among the families and friends, too! Love was just oozing all over the place! I can only hope to have captured an ounce of how full my heart felt photographing such a beautiful day.

Sean and Rachael, I can not express how special it was to be a witness to your love and commitment to each other, and to share such joy with you and your families on your wedding day. Thank you so much for entrusting your memories to me.

Rachael and the girls got ready for the day at her parent’s home in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. 

Rachael’s wedding shoes are actually the shoes her grandmother wore on her wedding. So special!!

Rachael and Sean were married at St. Joesph’s Cathedral of Sioux Falls.

Sean and his buddies were some serious dancers! We’re not talking guys that can carry a beat, these boys were swingin’ girls all over the reception!

Did I mention that the Cathedral is beyond stunning? Well, now I did.

As I took this picture of Rachael by herself in Mary’s grotto, Sean said, ‘Oh my gosh, Rachael, you’re the most beautiful woman God’s ever created!’ If you know Sean, or have read anything I said above, he meant this with the utmost sincerity and it was sooo sweet to hear him say!!

So I’ve mentioned a lot about how beautiful and sweet and lovey this wedding was, but I should probably mention how FUN these people were to spend the day with. We were about to move onto the guys’ photos and the girls were like, ‘oh, actually we need to get one of us holding Rach real quick!’

^^ hehe handsome, kind, AND fun!!

The Minnehaha Country Club was such a beautiful setting for the reception! 

Therefore what God has joined together, let no man separate. Matthew 19:6
