They say that it’s good luck if it rains on your wedding day. If that’s true, Wes and Jennifer are two of the luckiest people on earth. Their wedding day was hampered by a continual drizzle forcing plans to be changed for the pictures (originally slated for outside the Nelson) and for the reception (originally slated for a the rooftop at 909 Walnut). Luckily it did not change their laid back attitude and fun-loving personalities.

Details:

Ceremony location: Our Lady of Sorrows

Florist: Village Gardens

Reception location: 909 Walnut

Caterer: Above and Beyond Catering

A quick phone call revealed that the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art will let you bring wedding parties inside for pictures. The only hiccup was that we had just 30 short minutes before the staff had to set up for an event. We made every second count and ended up with one of our favorite pictures of the year – you’ll have to make it to the end of the post for that bit of awesomeness.

The man with the tie in the background is actually a piece of art.

We’ll ask our couples to do some crazy things at time but this one wasn’t even our idea. Any couple that will pose with naked mannequins is ok in our book!

After the museum, the wedding party headed to JP Wine Bar for some hot pictures and a little vino.

And a little fun…

Wes and Jen stole a few moments alone.

The party at 909 filled the lobby with food, drinks and people.

This is a priceless image where everything came together perfectly. It’s sure to have spot in our Best of the Best 2008 posts (coming your way in January)!

Wes and Jen – Thanks for being flexible and not letting the weather ruin your day. We had a great time running around Kemper shooting as if our lives were ending and then kicking back at JP.
