Early in June, Sarah and Nick came home to Pittsburgh from California to get married.  They celebrated their wedding day along with friends and family at the beautiful St. Bernard Church in Mount Lebanon.  It was followed by a reception at the nearby Holy Cross Banquet Hall.  Nick is an officer in the US Naval Reserve and he chose to wear his dress white uniform for the ceremony – which really fit in with the bright sunshine and fantastic weather we had on that day.  Sarah was so happy – she’s smiling and laughing in almost every photo throughout the entire day.

Here are some of my favorite photos:

I love Sarah’s reaction (below) to Nick as he sees just how much lipstick got transferred during the first kiss (above):

Nick changed into a tuxedo for dinner:

The couple feeds each other a piece of cake.  Nick helped Sarah out by kissing the icing off of the tip of her nose:

The parents watch as Sarah and Nick share their first dance:

The parent’s dances were really lovely, with a lot of emotion.  Sarah dances with her dad:
