Shanahan/Sachs Wedding: Krystal & Michael said I do!

I spent three days photographing Krystal's and Michael's wedding weekend. Between the slew of toasts and my own private moments with them individually, I walked away feeling these two are loved in a very big way. The rehearsal dinner, held at Cherry Hills Country Club and attended by a hundred or so of their nearest and dearest, was where I and others enjoyed the majority of toasts. There were plenty that had lots of laughs, a few incriminating pictures of the groom as a toddler, and it all ended in tears with Michael toasting their parents and then his bride. I went home that evening reliving a few in my head and laughing out loud! A few months earlier I had asked them each to describe the other and learned he's the boisterous one and she the more reserved partner. But I had a feeling they were hiding something from me and soon found I was right! They are each so much more than the dichotomy presented that day. Together they are warm, amazing friends to those around, grounded in their roots and grounded in life, loving counter-parts, and all-around good people. They encompass the saying by truly being the salt of the earth.

I would usually now describe the wedding details, but I think this time I'll allow the slideshow below to speak for itself. All I can say is I have never seen a party quite like it! Thank you Krystal and Michael for iniviting me to enjoy it all along side you, camera in hand, documenting this weekend that you will surely look back on with a smile on July 4, 2059!

Much love,

Laura
