Jimmy Choos, Vera Wang, a beautiful country club, and a gorgeous couple come together to make an amazing wedding!  Liz and Marshall came down from New York, New York to be married the week before Christmas at the Lakewood Ranch Golf and Country Club.  It is such a picturesque location and the Christmas decorations they had made it even prettier.  Dad had photographed the wedding of Emily and Steve years ago and it was wonderful seeing them as guests at this wedding as well.  It seems as if it wasn’t very long ago that dad was photographing their newborn son peeing on them and now he is almost two 🙂 . Dad also got to see Shane who was married here back in October.  Tell Nicole “hi” for us!

The band at the reception was one of the best dad has heard at a wedding.  They are called Powerhouse, led by Alan James.  If you are thinking about live music at your wedding, check them out!

Liz and Marshall both looked stunning.  They did a great job with the details and put together an awesome wedding.  It was wonderful to see how much love they have for one another.  Their entire day seemed to be filled with the excitement of what is ahead for them.  Thanks for having dad share in your day, and congratulations newlyweds!  You are going to have such a fun honeymoon!  First Colorado for some snow, then Mexico for some sun!

Awww, Emily and Steve, still very much in love:

The cake was from Publix:

One of dad’s favorites from the day was by the fire pit at night:
