nick + jessica: reception photos | jen mcken, photographer

By June 19, 2013 No Comments

While Jessica was having her make up done, she made the comment: “I’m going to dance my face off tonight!”. I kind of giggled because I knew she was the type of person that would do just that…..and let me tell you, she kept her word!

Reception photos are some of my favorite photos! Friends and relatives come together to celebrate the couple and as Jessica says…..they dance their faces off until the weeee hours of the night! This crowd was so awesome…and so fun!!! I apologize for the image overload…..but it’s a smorgasbord of images…and these aren’t even half of them!!!

And for all of you first-timers….incase you  missed the other blog posts I ran earlier last week:

They rode up to their reception in the car and the sun was beaming behind them!! I love this picture!!!

Being officially announced…..I love their expressions!!!

A few of the heartfelt toasts!

I love this picture…..just look at how he is looking at her. Every time she would laugh….he just soaked it in. He just adores her…it’s so apparent! <3

Cheers!

I stole them away to get a few shots around the barn/reception area……such beautiful photo-ops!

Cake time!!!! Although I didn’t eat a piece……I can say  how FREAKIN AWESOME it smelled! And anything with raspberries and strawberries gets a thumbs up from me!

The kids got a kick out of the balcony area…and so did I…it was awesome up there!!

The first dance!

I love this!!! 🙂

I told you…….they danced their faces off!! <3

Oh heyyyyyyy!!!

Nick and Jessica…have an AMAZING time in Italy. <3 <3 <3
