Engagment Pictures - Kara Vorwald Photography

Oh yes, it is true, we love wedding pictures. Couples in love always get our hearts to pitter patter a little more and keep us in the romantic mood for what we do. So when Kara Vorwald sent us a recent shooting, we were giddy with excitement in sharing with you her marvelous work. The butterfly on the bouquet is so sweet; we are definitely in awe!

Alyssa & Matt were a great couple to work with and their wedding was lovely. I feel like I say this at every wedding I work but it was so much fun.

When I first got to the venue and began shooting we noticed that a butterfly had randomly set on the bride's bouquet. It was so beautiful and literally sat there the whole day!

The day of the wedding had also called for rain and we had been planning on an outdoor ceremony. Literally minutes before the ceremony began the sun peaked out of the clouds and provided the most beautiful lighting. It was a lovely fall wedding.

What are we up to this week?

Jan 6 | 2014 Wedding Trends, Part 5 | by Cynthia

We have to confess that this week will be a rough one. The weather alone is not keeping hearts warm since temps are below zero for the high, so we think that we will be working on the outdoor photo shoot, inside! Here is a sneak peak at our Pinterest Board: http://www.pinterest.com/WeddingsInIowa/winter-snow-photo-shoot/

The lack of posting for the last two days was due to funerals in the WeddingsinIowa.com family. My son lost his battle against brain cancer last week, and was laid to rest Saturday. The day before his funeral, I learned that my father passed away from a long illness with Alzheimers. Not the best start to the New Year to say the least. Your support and caring notes have been very comforting and my family and I appreciate them more than words can say.

Our 2014 Wedding Trends continues today with one of our ultimate favorites - Gold.

We are always looking for a way to add this shiney metal to any of our events since we think the warmth and elegance that is lends always dresses up any Wedding. We are thrilled to know that our efforts are among the many! Gold can be found everywhere for 2014: dresses, linens, decor, stationery, even dessert has a touch of this luster.

We couldn't be happier!
