We held our collective breaths — and prayed nonstop — that the rain would pass in time for Amber and Daniel’s outdoor wedding and reception. We watched the rain fall that morning, moving the planned bridal brunch picnic inside, and we watching it rain again that afternoon, keeping some of our portraits under cover on the elegant front porch at Honey Lake Plantation, near Tallahassee. But then the clouds parted just forty-five minutes before the ceremony began, and the sun shined down on them as they exchanged their vows in the alfalfa field overlooking Honey Lake. Then they danced with their guests late into the clear, star-lit night.

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Dorn! You are every bit as beautiful on the inside as you looked on your wedding day, and we wish you the happiest of marriages (and the happiest of honeymoons, starting tomorrow)!~ Laura
