London Town and Gardens Wedding | Mike & Judy | Father’s Day Summer Wedding

July 29, 2015

Oh man… I knew from the moment I met Mike & Judy that this gorgeous summer wedding at London Town and Gardens was going to be a really special one. I feel like that for every wedding I shoot, but something about Mike and Judy made me sure that their wedding day was going to be all about not only the love they share, but also about the unconditional love that bonds a family together. These two got married on Father’s Day and even though it was one of the hottest days of the year, everyone was ALL smiles the entire day.

The sweetest moment of this wedding was not only witnessing the way these two look at each other (seriously the sweetest, just wait until you see the pictures below!), but also happened when the DJ announce a Father Daughter dance for everyone to join in on. It was truly just like Mike & Judy to include their guests in this special wedding reception tradition, and as I snapped away with tears welling up in my eyes, I couldn’t help but think of how special these pictures would be 10, 20, 50 years down the road.

This Father’s Day wedding was just FULL of heart! From the tearful First Look to guests hanging out and playing corn hole for hours on end with the stunning Historic London Town and Gardens as their backdrop, Mike and Judy had such a beautiful day… and I’m so excited to share these images!! :)

And then after the first kiss, they just looked at each other and laughed because they were just that full of excitement/”we’re actually really married” feels.
