{ Mike and Desirea’s Wedding }

I am still in my constant catch up mode from last summer even. This house building thing totally threw me for a loop, but I will get caught up! Here are some pictures I took for my brother Mike at his wedding down in Destin, Florida in September. It was so beautiful there, and SO hot. I was happy to get to document this special time in their life. Congratulations! We love you guys!

Their wedding ceremony was preformed on a strip of beach they had rented for the night. It was nice to have a slice of the beach all to ourselves. Mike and Desirea built this bamboo alter, and Desirea did all the flowers. It turned out beautiful!

The whole Family-Mike, Desirea, Tayleigh, and Tori. Desirea also made the girls dresses. They were so beautiful and classy. I love that pink color. Desirea is so creative-I love having such a talented sister-in-law.

It was so hot there that day that by the time it was time to cut the cake, it was almost melted. I love the little twist they did on the regular feeding/smashing-of-the-cake. They were about to feed each other the cake, and the girls were all eagerly looking on as we were kind of heckling them about smashing it into each other’s face. They were about to, but then turned and let Tayleigh have a little cake. She was completely taken by surprise, but such a good sport about it. I think she secretly loved getting to taste the cake before everyone else.
