If you saw the first post about Mia & Keith’s wedding day, you have more than likely been anxiously waiting to see part II today. I’m jumping into the second half of the wedding day, the part where Keith promised to love Mia forever, the part where hundreds of family and friends were ready to celebrate their new marriage. I can’t begin to explain how ecstatic I am about the bride & groom, and their wedding day. I am sure we will be on the same page once you see the details that were put into this wedding reception: extravagant, intriguing, & classy, the reception was phenomenal - something that I don’t even think photographs can demonstrate. I think you will be equally floored. Everything from the name cards to the centerpieces, table arrangements to the cake toppers… the art that Mia & Mrs. Mauer created was simply glamorous.
I want to begin this post with a few of my favorite wedding day images ever to date. There was something that was absolutely magical about these moments and I had a hard time not tearing up over their sincere interactions with each other.
Dearest Mia & Keith, my heart is still leaping when I put myself back in this place with you on your wedding day. I hope you will always feel the way you did in these moments!
I think this was one of the best moments of their lives, and their faces tell all.

We quickly learned that Keith is really good at admiring his beautiful wife. :)
This is our favorite favorite.
That is one pretty striking bridal party.
Someone had requested a jump shot, and I will just say that their verticals were quite impressive.
The following are shots of the reception that I can’t stop talking about…
This is one of the two variations of centerpieces. Lemons in the vases with a white & yellow floral arrangement.
The fancy cupcake tower. Now this is what a cupcake tower aught to look like!
How absolutely perfect is this cake topper!? Keith coaches college football & Mia is crazy about him!
Mr. Heckendorf’s best man speech.
The second type of centerpieces were amazing.
Macy & Marlo Mauer teamed up to deliver a very cute speech to their sister and publicly welcomed Keith to the family.
“Yay!” for best friends.
I ran with this little idea. Summer night, green grass, lemons, and diamonds… how could it be wrong?
Stay tuned for one more little post including images from the dance floor and the candy bar. Brides, if you haven’t been already, plan to get inspired!
