From the first day that we met Katie and Joel, we knew that this would be a wedding we did not want to miss. With such glowing personalities and light-hearted spirits, this couple made the wedding and reception a joy to shoot. Between the exchanging of vows, Opa’s wedding speech, and a delicious ice cream bar, we loved being a part of your special day. Katie, after reportedly stealing his friends, you stole Joel’s heart and we wish you the best of luck in this new life together!

Thank you to the new Mr. and Mrs. Van Abbema for allowing us the pleasure of sharing in your wedding day story.
