Amber and Derek had a gorgeous wedding last week at Lionsgate Event Center in Lafayette. Although, have already been rockin’ this marriage and parenting thing for the last 10 years. They have 4 beautiful children and they were so excited to have the wedding they always dreamed of. For starters, the weather was gorgeous. Amber and her oldest daughter Maya got ready together in the bridal suite. Lionsgate has such a pretty getting ready space. It is full of great decor that has so much character. Amber surprised Derek by having his friends from the Marines join him before the wedding and help him get ready. He was pretty surprised! Amber and Derek had a first look with the whole family which was so much fun! The girls were on one side and the boys were on the other. It was so great to see Hobie and Justin’s reactions to seeing their mom all dressed up! Amber frequently reminded me that usually they only see her with the classic “mom bun”…which she rocks by the way! She looked stunning and they all new it 🙂

The family photos we took before the ceremony  are some of my favorite EVER! The kids were so excited and sweet. We had a great time. One of my favorite parts about this wedding was that they released butterflies at the ceremony! It was a first for me and it turned out great! The whole rest of the day there were butterflies flying around 🙂 I am so lucky that I got to capture all the moments of their wedding! 10 years down…and forever to go! Cheers! -Janae
