Tollehouse Beauty: Leigh and Eric: Married

So it's been awhile since I've posted.. between work and holidays and being a single momma my time has been a bit crazy lately. but I appreciate you ladies being patient with me! and I'm so so excited to share Leigh and Eric's wedding with you!! it was photographed by the amazingly talented Allison George Photography

I went to highschool with Leigh. She was a year below me.. but going to a tiny all girl catholic highschool.. everyone pretty much knows everybody. Her older sister was friends with my sister (her wedding will be blogged shortly - because they both got married a few months apart! how fun!!)

Leigh's wedding was truly a pleasure to do. Her entire group was so inviting and warm. Leigh gleamed with sophistication and elegance - and her eyes lit up when she talked about Eric.

((you know, i'll share something with you all. that's one thing i've learned to love about weddings.. i rarely ever know the groom or see the groom until i receive the wedding pictures, yet, i feel as though i have met each and every one of my brides' grooms. i think it's the way they talk about them. yup, that's what i love. the one thing that may be called a "behind the scenes" 'thing' when it comes to doing weddings. to most of you; i'm a stranger.. a friend of a friend..a "you did my cousin's wedding two years ago and i'd like for you to do mine" kinda deal. but by the end of the wedding day..i feel like i know you..and your family..and your groom. and the way my brides' eyes light up when i ask them about their groom.. it gets me every time. i hope to be able to have that 'feeling' or 'moment' some day. but until then.. thank you all for sharing those moments with me))
