Wedding Wednesday | Jess & Glenn 08.08.09 {Columbus, Ohio}

Remember Jess and Glenn, our dear friends that the hubby and I threw an engagement party for in July? Well, their August wedding photos are ready to share and they are absolutely gorgeous! My amazing sister, Jami, photographed their big day and Jess' father, Klaus, took some fabulous shots at the reception as well.

Jess and Glenn exchanged their vows at Goodale Park (where they started their very first date!) in Columbus with a very intimate ceremony - besides the bride, groom, photographer and Justice of the Peace, the only two guests were Ilario and I. We were so proud and blessed to be their witnesses on their big day!

I absolutely love the moment captured in the photo on the left, Glenn was gently getting the hair out of Jess' face. On the right, the exchanging of the rings - you can catch a glimpse of Jess' gorgeous yellow engagement ring, too! She bought her dress to match it :)
They had their wedding bands custom made in Europe when they got engaged, the design on hers is his fingerprint and vice versa on his. They are absolutely breathtaking!

Since the ceremony was outside, I suggested buying these adorable Tiffany Umbrellas, just in case. Luckily they weren't needed, but they were definitely a fun photo prop :)
The boys might have had a little too much fun with them. . .
This is my favorite! Jess, you are HOT, HOT, HOT!!
The whole clan in front of the gorgeous pond at Goodale Park.
Jess and Glenn continued their first date reminiscing by hosting their reception at the ultra chic Due Amici - the first place they had dinner together. I love this view of the head table.
A close up of the handmade paper bouquet created by Jess' incredibly talented graphic designer sister, Allison. She made Glenn's boutonniere, too. They were fabulous - such amazing textures and details!
Just a few of the dish options served at the reception - Insalata Mista with goat cheese, almonds and berries and Portabella Ravioli in a basil pesto broth. DELICIOUS!
The gorgeous bride and groom with his parents, George and Carolyn.
I couldn't get enough of Jess' nephew, Dirk, - he is the most adorable and well behaved little guy. I loved this moment of him and Jess' mom, Vivian.

On the left, Jess' super cute J. Crew sandals - love the pop of color - and the two of them on the right opening gifts (the one in the photo just so happens to be from us!).
I couldn't resist posting this great shot of my sister, camera in hand!
As you can see, it was a fabulous and intimate affair - we are so thankful that we could be a part of it. Congratulations again, Jess and Glenn - we love you and are so very happy for the two of you!!
