Brittany and Bradley Sears- Rehearsal and Brunch

May 22 I got to see my cousin, Brittany get married. This seemed like it should not be happening because in my mind she should still be 5 years old screaming at my other cousin Dustin, hahaha. Anyway, her mom, Kelly, asked me a while ago to reserve that date so I could take the pictures for the rehearsal and bridal brunch. And I was like, "Of course I'll do it!" I hadn't been shooting long at the time so I was ecstatic.
I knew I was going to have a great time for 2 reasons. One-I was doing what I love, taking pictures, and two-I was going to be with family, which is ALWAYS a good time.


Brittany, the bride, and Bradley, the groom, showed up about 15 minutes late, but who is ever on time when it comes to anything to do with a wedding.

On the menu was some of the most fantastic BBQ I've had in a while. Along with the meat was some amazing potatoes, beans, out of the world coleslaw and delicious banana pudding. Oh darn, I'm getting hungry just sitting here typing this and if I'm making you hungry, I'm very sorry. :P


The decorations were beautiful. Lots and lots of colors. The theme was a country, down-home theme. It fit the couple to a T! Not only was the wedding party there, but lots and lots of family and friends. Everyone had a great time catching up and some even getting to know each other. Lots of great interaction from the soon to be blended family.




After we all got through with eating, it was time for the actual rehearsing. It was your typical "run-of-the-mill" rehearsal. It didn't last to long. I think they ran through it 2 times, and by the second time it ran very smoothly.


The next morning was the bridal brunch. It was the whole bridal party plus a few friends and extra family.

I have to say Brittany was a trooper for letting the world see her before hair and make-up were done. Most people wouldn't dream of having a photographer take pictures of them before it all begins. But I have to say, she is just as beautiful before the wedding as she was after. Thanks again for letting me be apart of your day.
