Jannusch/Holmes Wedding

We just returned home from a great wedding of a great couple- Amber and Jeff. Amber's Maid of Honor and sister, Linsay, booked us last year at a Bridal Show as a gift to her sister! We were also able to work with Tyffany and Jeff of T&J Studios, so that was fun.

The day started about noon at Charisma Salon in west Wichita with Amber getting an updo with her mother and bridesmaids. Her hair was all curls with a custom made tiara intertwined. She also had her make up applied and it looked great! She headed home to continue getting ready where she was most comfortable. Amber wore an awesome dress by Bonnie she found in Minnesota! The bodess wrapped around her with gathered material and sequin accents boardering each panel as they criss-crossed across her and draped down the back of the train! Her neklace, earrings and bracelet were custom made in Minnesota to match the dress and were absolutely STUNNING. Matching straps around her ankles on her shoes finished this custom made look!

The guys spent time donning their tuxes and hanging out at the Best Man's house with Barry and Jeff tagging along documenting their good time!

The two soon met downtown in front of Hotel Oldtown for the first time and had a photo session there with their Bridal Party. They wasted no time in heading east to the Firestation where Jeff works to get photos on the Engine and in a field behind the station. Then it was time to move on to Nativity Pines for the ceremony and reception.

The ceremony was held outside and the weather was just great. Not too hot and a light breeze to the couple's backs as they stood in front of nearly 200 family members and guests and exchanged vows. It was a very nice ceremony with the Pastor detailing how their lives together were similar to a rescue that Jeff would execute at work.

After family photos, the couple were introduced to their reception where they promptly cut the cake (decorated to match the beadwork and pattern of Amber's dress!) and shared their first toast. Dinner provided by Corporate Caterers was great and after the formal toasting, the tables were moved to make way for the party people! And party they did!
It was great to see so many firefighter friends we had met over the years from our "other" job and get to know new one, Amber and Jeff! Amber and Jeff, thank you for having us along for your most important day, we truly enjoyed ourselves and it was a pleasure getting to know both of you. Have a great time on your honeymoon to St. Lucia, we are all so very jealous! Don't you need a good videographer to document that for you? :) Take lots of pictures and video.
