dk photographic: Kelly and Tony

Kelly and Tony

A chilly, rainy day certainly didn't dampen the celebration. I've been looking forward to Kelly & Tony's day for quite a while. I think it was a day full of good things.

A gorgeous dress?

...with an amazing belt. wedding photos columbus ohio

a beautiful bride....

a handsome groom...

A pink ribboned boutonniere, a subtle thing that means so much.

Every pew bow had a beautiful accent. This one was my favorite.

I love this photo! Her dad offering one last word before the doors open on a new phase of life. It's the kind of photo that makes my heart happy.

Don't they look happy?!

The day also held a bit of tradition. The dog is "Bucci" and Tony's dad has a photo with Bucci on his wedding day. I love that it was so important to Tony. He and his dad clearly have a special bond. He asked his dad to be his best man which always makes my heart melt.

I have done a lot of O-H-I-O photos in my day: bridesmaids, groomsmen, couples, party guests but this is the first one where I've ever included a Michigan fan. You can see how happy she is about it. This makes me chuckle every time.

We made a little stop at Bar 23 (where they met) for....

well, you know how bridal parties are... :)

The intros at the reception shows the whole Michigan-Ohio State rivalry in a big way. It was dueling fight songs!

Ohio State

Michigan

Doesn't matter. The crowd enjoyed it all.

The rivalry even made its way to the groom's cake!

A "Tony" face. I saw him make it several times during our engagement session. Glad I got to see it on the wedding day, too.

First dance!!

Now... I know you can't really see Kelly's face but her dad's face is so happy, I couldn't resist it.

After the father/daughter, Tony danced with Kelly's mom and....

Kelly danced with Tony's dad.

I think Kelly got the last word in the OSU-Michigan rivalry department with her Michigan garter... Although, Tony did toss that baby to get rid of it. LOL.
