Paul + Saren

8.14.21

These two and their families basically grew up together. They'd been friends since they were little and their lives were on different paths until the found each other again. Hearing Saren's dad talk about how much their grandfathers would've loved seeing them together left no dry eye in the house. Neither one of them ever thought that they'd end up together, but we're all so very happy they did!!! We absolutely love these two, and if you keep scrolling, you'll see why.

Saren and her ladies prepped at downtown's gorgeous Hyatt Regency hotel. This group was full of smiles as Saren started feeling more and more like a bride on her wedding day. And doesn't she kind of look like Miranda Lambert?! She says she gets it all the time! 

The guys and gals gave us time to get these gorgeous outdoor shots before the ceremony. We had no idea this hidden gem was hidden in the heart of downtown! 

From first looks to a special prayer before the ceremony, Saren and Paul were surrounded by love every second of their day! It was so sweet to see. 

Their ceremony was at the historic First Presbyterian Church in downtown Wichita. It was such a grand space, perfect for their beautiful ceremony!! 

Saren and Paul chose to celebrate their unity by having guests wave ribbon streamers as they walked by - these always make for such great shots! 

Fun fact about Paul: before his wedding day, he did NOT like having his picture taken...Saren told us before the engagement session that he was not a fan, BUT after spending some time with us, he actually admitted he had fun AND wanted to do even more photos with Saren after the ceremony!

It's always great for us when we know we won over the groom and we think Paul might even have a future in modeling ;)

After the ceremony, their guests were invited to eat, drink, and dance at Botanica's Lotus Hall - and Events and Design by Ashley knocked it out of the park with decor elements that complimented the space perfectly. Their DJ even incorporated some cool fog canons to welcome the couple in with style! 

It was truly a night to remember with these two. Just goes to show that you can make all the plans that you want for your life, but sometimes life has even better plans. 

Thank you to all the vendors who made their day amazing, and a special thanks to Saren and Paul for choosing us to capture these special memories for them.

We couldn't have asked for a better couple!!
