Any time we shoot a wedding headed by a Stardust Celebrations coordinator, we know it’s going to be a very unique event. Their expert coordinators are so detail-oriented, and they always find innovative ways to make each couple’s wedding fit their personality.
Stardust’s Jenny Cline did an amazing job doing just that at Heather and Jeff’s wedding. Their theme was “Forever Young,” which is perfect not only because their new last name is Young, not only because Heather teaches young children, but also because they are both fun-loving and carefree, just like two kids in love! To keep with that theme, Heather and Jeff worked with Jenny to make sure their wedding was fun for all ages.
Here are a few of our favorite shots from the day:
Heather and Jeff handed out kazoos for everyone to play during the reception. You know we had to get a cool ring shot with those!
I know how cliche it is to call a bride radiant, but honestly, that is just so fitting for Heather! During the reception Jeff told a story about the first time he met her, and he said that when she looked at him she just beamed, and she had this warmth and energy just radiating from her. Because of that, “You are my Sunshine” is a special song for the two of them because Heather is the sunshine in Jeff’s life. Isn’t that sweet??? I thought this photo really portrayed Heather’s “radiance” and brightness.
When it comes to the ladies, you always gotta show off the shoes!!
And we can’t forget the guys, of course!
Another cool detail – look at all those fun socks!
Heather and Jeff decided to take group photos before the ceremony, so they had a quiet private moment together before we began taking the formals.
Heather was very adamant about wanting to get photos of the church tower, so we decided to one up her and get the photo with her whole wedding party in it!
“The kiss shot” with a little bit of a twist
After photos Heather and Jeff took some time apart to prepare for the ceremony. Jake got this amazing photo of Jeff praying with the officiant just before the start of the ceremony. We love the emotion that they are sharing together.
Did I mention that there were a TON of kids at the wedding? It definitely kept things interesting! We caught this shot of one little wedding guest taking a quick snooze during the ceremony.
We love love LOVE their faces in this shot. They have just been pronounced man and wife, and their reactions are priceless!
After the ceremony, we got a few more photos of the new couple as the sun was setting.
There were so many neat details at the reception, I couldn’t pick just one, so I had to do a collage! Clockwise from top left: a shot of the cake through the window of the country club, the signature cocktail, the sun setting through the foilage, the placecards tucked in a patch of grass, a small framed note reading “You are My Sunshine” that Jeff left for Heather at their table, and the Coyote Ridge Country Club. 
The first dance. We love our flare!!
And finally, a new twist on the traditional grand exit – BALLOONS!
