Laura + Joel . married!

They agreed not to get each other gifts.

But from the minute she opened the box Joel had sent for her and opened the locket inside, I’m not sure Laura stopped smiling the rest of the day and well into the night.

Laura and Joel were married on a sunny Saturday afternoon at Trinity United in their hometown of Smiths Falls. Laura and Joel’s childhood homes just happen to be a stones throw away from each other, which made it extra-easy for me to spend some time with both the guys and the girls. I started the day with Joel and arrived just as he was putting on the finishing touches, when I got to Laura’s, she was all ready to go – there was just one more small box to open.

A short rickshaw ride would whisk them away from the ceremony and then it was off to Perth for photos at Stewart Park (where we had some time to kill while another wedding ceremony was taking place). Dinner and lots of dance were at Code’s Mill. Thanks for an an awesome day Laura and Joel, and congrats again! Here are just a few faves from the day.
