Erin + Dallas | St. Louis Hyatt Regency Wedding

It’s funny how I always seem to break into a new post by talking about the weather! ha! It just so happens to be a really pertinent detail of this day-slash-entire-weekend! Hurricane Isaac had made its way to the Midwest and we were expected to have high winds and lots of rain. Luckily for us and this sweet couple, we got a little bit of everything. However, despite its gusty winds we were able to get fantastic photos! And that makes this photographer really happy.

Meet Erin + Dallas! I was so impressed with the look & feel of this wedding that I had to feature it on my blog. With a planning background, Erin was able to team up with Sabrina Torti from Proposing Dreams to create this fabulously sparkly + romantic event. Before all the crazy planning (am I right girls?) can take place, a proposal had to happen. Sweet Dallas wrote her a song.While singing it.Playing his guitar. (ahem – love!) The last few lyrics ended with a proposal. She said yes, and the rest is history! I loved how the hotel venue had circle patterns throughout and even in the curtains…which they carried into the invitation suite, those gold sequin discs and theme! I’m sure that was planned! And I love that.

We started our day at the hotel with some getting ready images and then had the first look on the rooftop. It really was special. Most of my couples like something a little private and intimate, but standing just a few feet away inside stood their closest family + friends watching every moment. Ryan caught the cool reflection shot. Heart! We headed down to the Arch (the perfect silver metallic to pair with the golds) for portraits and then back to the Hyatt for the ceremony and reception. What a really cool day. I think I’m going to be using some of the ideas for my own parties. Look out – my next party is SO having donut skewers.

Congratulations Erin + Dallas!
