Hello again, blog followers! I’m excited to share some photos from Kati and Kyle’s Salvage One wedding with you today. This is one of my favorite venues in the city, and I’ve been fortunate to have worked there many times. These two were so incredibly laid back, making it an absolute joy for me to follow them around all day! I’m going to start with one of my favorite portraits from inside Salvage One.
I started off the day with Kati, her friends, and her family as they got ready in their suite at the Hotel Conrad downtown.
Meanwhile, Kyle and the guys got ready in their own room at a different hotel.
Back to the girls! I absolutely loved this Jenny Packham dress that Kati wore.
We headed to Salvage One for some portraits, and I loved this sweet moment when Kati’s father saw her for the first time.
Time for the ceremony! Jasper, the ring-bearer, was wide-eyed as he walked all the way down the aisle.
One of my favorites from the first dance:
Time for the dance party! Rachel from Toast and Jam did a great job keeping the dance floor packed all night.
Congratulations again, Kati and Kyle! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your wedding day. I wish you both nothing but the best!
