When you look at the images from Melissa and Ryan’s wedding, it’s hard to not fall in love with the gorgeous old mansion that sets their stage! Whether from the textured walls to the beautiful old furniture and frosty windows, everything gives off a sort of timeless class and elegance, which carries over into the wedding itself. Timeless old beauty, juxtaposed with the freshness of new conjoined life. Classic.
Looking back on their day, Ryan and Melissa both agree that seeing each other for the first time during their First Look is one of their favorite memories. The anticipation they both felt and the joy they shared during that time together was enough to make this photographer’s heart beat a little faster. 🙂
