Addison Intimate Jewish Wedding | Dallas Wedding Photographer | Karen+Michael

When Karen and Michael told me there was going to be a total of 11 people including them at their wedding, I knew I was going to love it.  Their intimate wedding was full of raw emotion, tears, joy, and laughter.  Even I couldn’t hold back my smiles and tears during their toasts.  I was touched and blessed that Karen and Michael said photography was one of their top priorities, but also excited they had so many other amazing details and personal touches!  Karen had a gorgeous Vera Wang dress with a sophisticated built in sash, beautiful New Orleans inspired floral with Spanish moss from Fleurs De France Floral, delicious New Orleans food by Two Sisters Catering (the chicken was mouth watering!), and of course a ceremony with Marty from Love Notes Weddings is always full of surprises!  Karen and Michael included many of their Jewish wedding traditions including the breaking of the glass and the Yichud.  After their intimate and sweet ceremony, we headed over to Celestial park in Addison for some beautiful and romantic portraits.  Christen at Salon Lucien did such an amazing job with Karen’s braided hair I just had to include a close up.  All prettiness aside, I really enjoyed all the stories shared after dinner and the chance to document these lovely moments.  We ended the night opening some gifts from Karen’s sister, which turned out to be gorgeous Korean fine art, some lovely dancing, and a backyard romantic portrait.
