Nicole + Paul :: Hitched

Posted on October 15th, 2008 by Kate. Filed in Weddings

I love this couple. I love this couple. I love this couple. Like, seriously, I think we are going to have to be friends and stuff. Cowboy game watching parties, anyone?

Honestly, I could write about Nicole and Paul all day long. They are just the coolest, and their family and friends already inspired another blog post…

Really, I could have posted 200 images for you to look at…that’s how much energy their photographs have. However, I chose a few of my very favorites, and added a slideshow for a little bonus. I hope these frames “take you” to the party. It was such a moving event, in every sense of the word, and credit is due to the Vertals, Dalals, and their rowdy friends!


For some reason, I just love this. A cheeseburger juxtaposed with cufflinks is just so, well, Juxtapose Photography.

Just, you know, the essentials…

Love this one of the girls praying before the ceremony.

The flower girls were just everywhere that day. Mom and I had such a blast covering them!

Can you feel the nervousness in this frame? It makes me want to chew on my fingernails.

Ohmygoodness, I am just freaking out over this frame of Paul and the Holy water.
I’m not Catholic, so I got a bit of an education at their rehearsal!

The lovely Nicole and her dad make their way into the sanctuary.

Oh! I just adore the way he looks at her!

And the way she looks at him…and the way he looks at her…swoon.

This just makes me want to grab Bobby and kiss him. Way to go with all that chemistry!

Stunning. Just stunning.

Later that evening, we headed to the reception at the Grand Hotel in Downtown McKinney.

Did somebody say PAR-TAY? Who doesn’t love an good wig?

Nicole and Paul had the best reception entrance I have ever witnessed.
They choreographed everything and rocked it out!

Get this party started!

Paul’s mom (who I am totally adopting) danced all night. No joke.

Paul and his new mother-in-law have a little fun on the dance floor.

Not sure what is going on here, but I have my suspicions. ;-)

Bring out the belly dancing scarves and the AMAZING Lebanese music!

The most hilarious bouquet toss I have seen yet involved a high toss from Nicole and a chandelier.

One for the books!

Nicole’s mom is so adorably expressive. She was a ton of fun to watch!

Thanks Mom, for being a rock star second shooter that evening, and for this shot as the couple leaves.

The holy water pic is awesome. Love the lighting in that one.

Kate! You did a fabulous job! The pictures are beautiful…I especially LOVE Nikki’s face after she threw the bouquet and, of course, her showing off her best asset (no pun intended). Nikki and Paul make an amazing couple and you captured the love they have for one another in the most beautiful and, I must add, classic way! YOU ROCK, Kate!

Kate,

I will definitely never forget this day. This was such an amazing and fun wedding to be involved in and you really caught all the emotions perfectly. It was wonderful meeting you and hopefully I will get to party with you again at another Dalal wedding as it seems that you will probably be photographing all of them. =)

Great pics!! Oh, and the SAME thing happened at my wedding this weekend with the bouquet toss!!

Mary T. Oct 21st, 2008 at 10:55 pm

That one of the bouquet in the chandelier needs to be your juxtapose wedding logo! Stumbled on your blog, love it. Mary T.

So… when do we get to do this again? I have a few wigs here collecting dust. Kate, you and your mom did such an amazing job. You have officially been adopted into the family. The pictures are fabulous and there are too many to comment on. You captured every moment beautifuly and purely. Which should help those who can’t remember some of the evening. =D
