The sun was beginning its descent, a gentle breeze pervaded the thick summer air, and massive oak trees overlooked the people milling around waiting for something amazing to happen. And then it did; Dave, dressed to the nines in a tuxedo and dress shoes, teed off and commenced his wedding reception at Oakmont Country Club with a perfect drive that landed effortlessly on the picturesque fairway. I have to reiterate that he did this in front of 200 people…in a suit and jacket… seriously impressive. Okay, so Melissa and Dave getting married was pretty amazing too and I cannot say enough good things about their day…but of course I will anyways.
One of my favorite parts of any wedding is the people involved. I truly believe that the couple sets the tone for the day, and this was obvious when it came to Melissa and Dave. From the beginning, Melissa embraced Abbey and I like old friends and made us feel comfortable, which was great because we pretty much spent every minute of the day with her.  I love that Melissa and Dave’s guests had a great time together and merged until there was no distinction between family and friends, just one group of people celebrating two amazing people. These two deserved a spectacular wedding and they certainly got it! Hope you two are enjoying this post on your honeymoon 🙂
