The Wright-Weber Wedding

Say that ten times fast! Yesterday we spent the day with Kyleen and Ben.
It was an absolutely gorgeous day for the first part of June! Kyleen started her day at Botanica getting ready with her 8 bridesmaids. She had 4 hair stylists on site to help the ladies with their up-do's and everyone looked absolutely stunning. They completed their make up and got dressed wearing gorgeous strapless floor-length purple dresses. Kyleen wore a beautiful strapless gown herself with intricate beadwork and a layer of organza that fit her perfectly.
She chose to see Ben before the ceremony and had a portrait session with photographer, Marcia Morrison and her assistants. With not much time to spare the couple then headed to First Baptist Church in downtown Wichita for the ceremony. The church glowed with the altar nearly surrounded in candles. The flower girls were a big hit, walking a few steps and then stopping to throw rose petals. They were adorable in white sleeveless gowns with a bright purple sash. After the ceremony the couple were sent off by their guests through a cloud of bubbles!
The reception was held back at Botanica. The entire reception hall was filled with fresh flower arrangements at every table. The couple took a few minutes for more formal portraits with Marcia and then were introduced into the room. After the bride and groom cut the cake and toast to each other, Kyleen donned a white apron sporting an embroidered "Bride" on the front to 'christen' the chocolate fountain! They fed each other chocolate dipped strawberries- and the biggest strawberries I'd ever seen to date just for your information!
It was a very nice day for Kyleen and Ben, they had a chance to relax at the reception with many family and friends. Kyleen dedicated a song to her parents at the dance for their Anniversary the day before her and Ben's wedding and to thank them for all the work they had done to make their day so special.
Thanks Kyleen and Benjamin for letting us also spend the day with you, we've enjoyed getting to know you both very much!
Thanks to Marcia Morrison for the great photos for our blog post!
