Genuine hands on a bride’s back make me melt. Every. Time.studio lb sioux falls icon lounge wedding photographer 15

What I love about Sioux Falls is its variety of wedding + reception venues. Icon Events is GORGEOUS, which was clearly a perfect fit for Joe + Brittany’s reception. :-)

Wanna see the ‘glow’ of being a newlywed? Here you go! Luke + Cori opted out of a receiving line so they could snuggle with each other just a little bit more on their big day! (I didn’t mind one bit.)studio lb black hills wedding photography 11

Now, I’m not one to usually share photos of speeches/toasts, but the way Cori looks at Luke just makes me go *awwwww* :-)studio lb black hills wedding photography 14

Me during the reception: “I’d love to steal you guys for a couple minutes if that’s okay.”

Them: “Okay!”

BAM! Gorgeous light and a quiet little moment for them to soak in the fact that they’re MARRIED!!
