favorite wedding photos [bridal party]

In effort to not upload 100 photos in one post, I am breaking our wedding day down into categories:)

Bridal party is up first! Why? Because they looked awesome, and they are wonderful. We have been so blessed with the greatest friends ever, it was such a blessing to have them there on our big day!

The girls wore dresses from Anthropologie, the prettiest store in the whole world. Their necklaces are knock-off J Crew. The girls did their own hair with the help of our very talented friend Donielle, who did my hair.

The boys wore suits from J C Penney, they were super on sale, which is awesome.

Flowers were by Deanna Dillender

Photos by Cara Dee Cecil of Cara Dee Photography. She is incredible, I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a wedding photographer:)

The girls were:

Shannon Henson (matron of honor)- Shannon and I have been friends since high school. She is one of my very best friends. We were roommates for my first 2.5 years of college.

Jen Brzinski (matron of honor)- Jen and I have been friends since our freshman year of college when we started first year together (now called college life). We were roommates for a year and a half.

Shannon Simonds (bridesmaid)- Shannon and I have also been friends since our freshman year, we also met in Young Life. I really should have just made a precursor all the girls with they are one of my best friends, but it’s true:). Shannon and I were roommates for 2.5 years or something like that. Its hard to remember:)

Megan Vogel (bridesmaid)- Megan and I have been friends since I came to UK. She was a year above me, and she became my teammate for YL at TCHS when she married Steve. We had a lot of fun leading together, especially at camp. We were made to lead cabins together. She told me the day after the wedding that her and Steve were going to have a baby! Surprise! I love it.

Randi Owens (bridesmaid)- Randi sadly had a medical issue and could not make it to the wedding. We both cried a lot about it, and I am still considering photoshopping her in our pictures. She and I lead YL together at TC for lots of years, and we  were roommates the past 2 years. She married Clinton in May and they moved out to Colorado. Boo. Too far away. She’s pretty wonderful.

Holly Webster (bridesmaid)- Holly and I have been friends since she was a freshman at UK and I was a sophomore. We have been roommates the past 4 years I think (is that right?!) And we have had a blast living together. Holly got married less than a month before me making it official that all my bridesmaids were married. I love it.

Katie Howard (bridesmaid)- I met Katie when I got placed on the Tates Creek YL team my freshman year of college. We were co-leaders for a long long time and she is one of my closest friends. She just drove up to visit me in Batesville, which is so sweet. We would get lunch together regularly when I lived in Lexington, so I’m in withdrawal a bit. She also let me live with her the week before my wedding, which means she helped me craft and watched girly wedding movies with me all week. So sweet.

Leah Henderson (bridesmaid)- Leah is so wonderful. She is my new sister-in-law. I knew I hit jackpot the first time I met her. I could not ask for a better sister-in-law. I kind of want to move in next door so we can hang out every day. I think she would like that too, because her and Ryan are about to have twins in the next few months! I can’t wait.

Coen (ringbearer)- Coen is my new nephew (Ryan and Leah’s son). He is adorable. He made it down the aisle perfectly. And he is only 3, though he looks about 5.

Savannah (flowergirl)- Savannah is only about a year and a half old, which makes it incredible that she walked perfectly down the aisle holding Coen’s hand. Savannah is Mark and Darci’s daughter, who are in the Miller family, who are basically in the Henderson family. That’s the best way to explain. Mark and Darci are incredible and some of my new most favorite people.

The groomsmen won’t get as big of an intro unless Scott wants to add a little later.. but they were:

Ryan Henderson (best man)- Scott’s older brother

Mark Miller (groomsman)- One of Scott’s best friends growing up

Sean Boyce (Groomsman)- One of Scott’s best friends and partner in ministry

Josh Bohl (groomsman)- One of Scott’s best friends and partners in ministry

RP Proctor (groomsman)- One of Scott’s best friends from Cinci

Evan Grossman (groomsman)- One of Scott’s old YL guys, who is now in college

Garret Price (groomsman)- One of Scott’s old YL guys now in college

Scott Gilfedder (groomsman)- My brother:)

now for pictures! Thanks Cara Dee!! They are perfect.
