Whitney & aaron



You know when you meet a couple and they are just...fun? Like, pure fun? They laugh, joke, are friendly and just kind of the life of the party? That is Whitney and Aaron.  I know when I met them that it was going to be a fun and laid back wedding, which is my favorite kind of wedding.  Also, they got married just a couple of weeks before Christmas so the theme of the wedding was my favorite holiday of the year, with bright reds and golds and greens, which was just an added bonus!

Whitney used the adorable Cottage on Orange Street to get ready and take a few quick bridal portraits.  Aaron and his groomsmen wanted just some casual photos right before the ceremony.  Again, a very low key couple!  After the ceremony, we walked around downtown and stumbled on Concorde Espresso Bar's Christmas setup.  It was absolutely perfect for their theme.  Afterwards, of course the couple and their bridal party rocked out on the dance floor with Whitney even taking over the DJ stand at one point.  The whole wedding was casual, cool and collected.  Just like them!
