Travis & Alicia Sittin' in a Tree...

Hey World!!
I am SO excited to show you guys what I have been up to!
Cuisine Unlimited (go ahead, click there....you know you want to) hired me to shoot an amazing vow renewal party.
Travis and Alicia have been together for 15 years and wanted to celebrate their love, marriage, and children with their closest friends and family.
Let me just tell you, these two KNOW how to throw a party...see story below.
I absolutely loved these two (Alicia is beautiful AND sweet...double whammy).
So here's the story:
Travis and Alicia were married in Memory Grove on July 2.
To celebrate 15 years of wedded bliss, they had an intimate gathering at their home.
The catering by Cuisine Unlimited was beautiful and delicious.
Original wedding photos were on display and a special "love mix" was playing over the speakers.
Everyone was chatting and eating and laughing and drinking.
It was wonderful.
About an hour and a half into their party, they surprised their guests with a SIGHTSEEING TOUR BUS!!
Think about that, a sight-seeing tour bus to take your friends and family around downtown SLC....heeeeelllloooooo!
THAT is a party!
I was excited to be shooting this event before, but THIS...this was just crazy!
I had such a fun time!
Everyone was so sweet and you could just feel how much this group of people cared about each other.
OK, moving on.
We all load onto the bus and Alicia starts handing out single red roses.
(You'll understand why later)
So the bus takes all of us to Memory Grove park, everyone waving, laughing, and taking pictures the entire journey.
It was so fantastic that these two lovebirds could renew their vows in the same place they made sacred promises to each other 15 years earlier.
So sweet.
Their ceremony was perfect.
Alicia had her "bridesmaids" with her...all holding single red roses
Awe.
Their beautiful daughter had written one of the sweetest poems I have ever heard and their guests were invited to say something to the couple before they said their vows...and I must admit, I got teary eyed once............ok, twice.
And in traditional wedding fashion, they sealed their vows with a kiss.
I *LOVE* love!
THANK YOU Alicia, Travis, and Cuisine Unlimited!
Here's to 15 years...and many, many more!

Shoot ya Later :)
