Karen + Ryan are one of the sweetest couples you will ever meet. They are both so genuine and easy going, but most of all they are completely in love with each other. We were lucky enough to photograph their rehearsal dinner at the Hard Shell in Midlothian as well as their wedding at Willow Oaks Country Club. 

Their rehearsal dinner was filled with drinks, laughter, advice, and lots of yummy food. Everyone was filled with excited and well wishes for Karen + Ryan. One of my favorite parts about photographing a rehearsal dinner is getting to hear the speeches from parents and loved ones. Sometimes it can get really emotional, and it is such a beautiful thing to witness such raw emotion and vulnerability.

The joining of two families is a really amazing thing, and this rehearsal dinner was the perfect start to Karen + Ryan's wedding weekend.
