I have a lot of favorite things to mention about this wedding starting with the bride and groom, Andrea + Matt.  The next thing I loved, being able to venture out to a cabin overlooking the river and taking some getting ready images for the groom.  The countryside in Cuba, Missouri was breathtaking.  The Calvin Klein tuxes from Men’s warehouse complete with another favorite, suspenders.  The blush pink flowers, the blush pink glass all over the reception tables, the coffee bar, the cigar bar, the gorgeous stone chapel and the strawberry wedding cake.  Oh, and how could I forget to mention the throwing of lavender after the wedding ceremony.  That is definitely up there in the top three.  I love lavender and it’s intoxicating scent.  So, it’s safe to say, Anne and I really enjoyed traveling to Cuba and taking this adventure, hanging out with an amazing and fun wedding party and witnessing the wedding between two amazing people.  Seriously, someone pinch me, I love my job.
