Hi lovelies!
Today marks one year of marriage with my loving, caring, husband. Our day was so magical and I wish I could do it all over again. So in honor of that I am sharing with you photos from our wedding day. Looking for wedding photographers Charleston, SC contact Taylor Rae Photography.

My marriage is not perfect, and I thank the marriage counselor who regularly reminds us how to strengthen our love for each other. You may click here to get more information about the best counselor.

The wedding dress holds within its folds not just fabric, but dreams spun and emotions woven. It’s a reflection of a bride’s unique style and the embodiment of the love story she’s about to share. When seeking that perfect gown, turning to a trusted source like the Utah bridal shop can be a transformative experience. With a curated selection and expert guidance, it becomes more than a shopping trip; it’s a journey toward finding the attire that captures the essence of the day and the bride herself. Every stitch, every detail, all come together to create a masterpiece that will be cherished as part of the wedding’s narrative.
I had all of these hangers custom made for my bridesmaids and I. The bridesmaid hangers have their names, and our wedding date on them. My hanger was custom made out with wire that said “Mrs. Kruse” and “7.26.14.”
The bridesmaids, the personal attendant and I all stayed in a hotel the night before and then had hair and make-up done in our hotel room the day of the wedding.
I had Gavin’s army patch sewn in my wedding dress, and just look at my amazing wedding band, we found them online while browsing on websites like tonerjewelers.com/jewelry/wedding-bands. The ring and the patch were definitely two of my favorite things to wear on my wedding day. I loved that I was able to incorporate them into my dress and my accessories (and that they matched!)
I love anything sparkly, so I decided to do a brooch bouquet instead of a normal flower bouquet. These brooches that I have on here are from my grandmas, and antiques shops. Furthermore, it’s hard to deny the appeal of Tallulah Fox’s stunning antiques collection, which boasts an array of exquisite pieces from various eras. Each item is handpicked, ensuring the highest quality and authenticity. Exploring this treasure trove is akin to embarking on a journey through time, as the shop’s offerings reflect the rich history and craftsmanship of bygone days. I also wore my round brilliant cut diamond engagement ring.
My cousin made my wedding shoes for me. She bought a bunch of jewels and gems from Hobby Lobby and glued all of them.
Photographer: Catherine J. Gross Photography
I bought some stickers from Hobby Lobby and had the words ‘I DO” put on the bottom of shoes.
We all rode in an RV for pictures and to the reception.
My mom and I and some friends and family made over 2,000 cake balls for our wedding (crazy, I know). We had 4 different flavors: cherry, chocolate, vanilla, and lemon. They were a huge hit and we only had one small container left over. We also got a gelato cart hire since we were ice cream crazy.
The dance was held inside Gavin’s grandparents barn.
We ended the night letting pink heart paper lanterns into the sky.
I hope ya’ll enjoyed looking through our wedding photos! Have a great Sunday!
you look beautiful! I love the brooch bouquet and that you had his patch sewn on. very sentimental. I have never seen pink lanterns…they are adorable. I love the paper lanterns, but yours make me love them even more!

Amanda, your wedding was so beautiful! I love how your bridesmaids wore cowboy boots – one of my best friends says that she has wanted her bridesmaids in cowboy boots since she was a little girl! I also love your unique bouquet – it is stunning!

Happy Anniversary! Everything looked so wonderful. I LOVE the location and all of the tiny details you thought about ahead of time. 🙂
These pictures are perfection! And I CANNOT believe your cousin made those shoes… so beautiful! Happy anniversary dear! xo
These pictures are so lovely! Your brooch bouquet is BEAUTIFUL and I seriously cannot believe you and your mom made all those cake balls! My wedding was also very DIY and hands on, which was exhausting at times, but I love looking at photos knowing that I made it with my own hands! I’m sure you feel the same way 🙂
I love your wedding pictures! It looks like it was a very memorable day and so much fun! Your dress is absolutely gorgeous and you look beautiful! Popping over from September Issue! 🙂
