The best types of wedding parties are the ones that give me a run for my money during the bridal party photo time. When they’re having so much fun with each other that they can’t focus for one minute to take a photo, you know you’ve got a good group.

We headed over to GT Bray for the ceremony and watched these two say their vows right in between the crowds that gathered for a party nearby and the dog park full of pups just to our right, yet it was hard to hear anything else other than the tender vows shared between the two.

I couldn't take my eyes away from the cake and dessert tables, located right in front of a tank of SHARKS!

They even had TWO wedding cakes! This one is a total mystery...

The evening ended with tons and tons of dancing and I couldn't stop snapping away, catching all the fun from behind the camera (if I knew how to dance at all I'd probably be out there too, but for everyone else's sake, I'll stick to staying behind the scenes). 

So the day started with Courtney giving me a gift that immediately brought me to actual crying tears. Not like one little sparkle in the corner of my eye, like I cried and then laughed at myself because I couldn't stop.

When the wedding day includes LOADS of time for pictures and a first look with a horse named Yellow Fellow, you end up with an amazing day.
