Kirsten and Andrew’s wedding day was filled to the brim with meaningful moments. All throughout the day, their family and friends spoke to the fact that these two were better together, and that each one makes the other a happier and better version of themselves. Andrew surprised Kirsten with a bouquet of roses and card before seeing each other for the first time. Kirsten shared one of the most precious first looks with her father that I have ever witnessed, and her mother gifted her a custom handkerchief to use throughout the day as a reminder of her love. As someone who already got teary eyed during wedding days, having a daughter of my own has only made it easier for me to cry during special moments. Kirsten’s dad was so encouraging and sweet during their first look together, commenting on how perfectly Kirsten her dress was and saying how proud and happy he was of her. As her mother gifted her the handkerchief, she was at a loss for words and overcome with emotion. It is such an honor to be able to capture these moments forever in photographs!

Andrew was blown away when he saw Kirsten for the first time, and they shared private wedding vows that yet again had everyone shedding a few tears. The gardens of JX Venue and Stillwater downtown made beautiful backdrops for their bride and groom portraits and WOW- this couple is stunning! But more than just looking really good on their wedding day, Kirsten and Andrew share a love that is a testimony to their parents and grandparents loves. During speeches we heard numerous stories of how both Kirsten and Andrew’s families have impacted them and helped them become the people they are today. Their love is stronger because of the examples of their families marriages! 

There is so much more I could say about how beautiful this day was, but I am hoping the photographs can show it better than I can write it. Enjoy our favorites from Kirsten and Andrew’s Stillwater Wedding!

Andrew and Kirsten, thank you for including us in your wedding day. Cody and I know that your love will only continue to grow stronger as the years go on! Congratulations!
