Wedding ~ Brooke & Derek ~ Top of the Market ~ Part One

I have SO many photos that I want to share from Brooke and Derek’s amazing day that I’m going to break my posting into two blogs.  We started out the afternoon at The Paramount Hotel - the suite Brooke was in was directly across the hall from where the men were getting ready.  I have to say that this bridal party was such a hoot to work with, check out the dude who ‘dropped trou’ for me out on the street!  The fireplace in the lobby was a great place to have Derek’s ‘first look’ with Brooke and then we headed out into the street for some play.  My awesome assistant, Jen Wade was already at the venue getting tons ‘o detail shots.  The whole bridal party then met down at the market for additional photo play and family portraits - we brought bubble gum for the group to blow bubbles at the bubble wall (thanks for that reminder Jen!).  On route to take the family portraits, we met Brooke’s dad on the street and the look on his face was so touching to me.  As we continued down the market, we were serenaded by an acapella group outside of Starbucks and happened to bump into my friend Stephanie that makes (and sells) amazing pottery.  She has a sweet motorcycle that she graciously allowed Brooke to hop up on.  We then headed up to the Top of the Market, which is such a lovely venue - the view out of the window in their library made for some fun ’showgirls’ shots.  The ceremony was tender, short and sweet - I really LOVE the expressions on Brooke’s face after they were announced as husband and wife!

Stay tuned for part two ~ the details, reception and the Beals Bowl-o-rama!!

    That was almost where we chose to get married too! :) Their pics around the market are so great and the text message picture was sooo sweet. Beautiful as always and can’t wait to see the rest!
