Wedding: Diana and Eric at Stumptown Mennonite Church

April 07, 2015  •  1 Comment

I have been looking forward to photographing Diana and Eric's wedding ever since I met them during their engagement session. We got connected via Diana's cousin Carrie Beachy, who is a good friend of mine and whose wedding I photographed a few years back. Eric and Diana make a wonderful pair and were completely themselves in front of the camera! They absolutely adore one another and they are a delight to photograph. Their spring wedding happened to be on one of the coldest days at the end of March. It even snowed that morning! Both the ceremony and reception were held at Stumptown Mennonite Church, located between a wide span of farms and fields in Bird in Hand, Lancaster County PA. Though the wind gusts kept us from exploring the outdoors, the natural window light inside the church made for some beautiful images. Many congratulations to Eric and Diana on a gorgeous, meaningful wedding day!

Love the excitement happening here! Normally I don't shoot with a window as backlight, but I love how these turned out.

And on to the reception! They did a fabulous job with the centerpieces and the teal, yellow and gray color combination were the perfect trio for a spring wedding. The tables were decorated with sea glass and guests took home mini jars of jelly beans as favors.

A toast from the best man!
