Mercedes and Jerry | The Pearl

Mercedes and Jerry were married at The Pearl in a beautiful outdoor ceremony!

The love birds met in community college. They love to eat out, travel, and frequent wineries (yes please)! Jerry asked Mercedes to be his girlfriend at Liberty Memorial which coincidentally is also where he proposed to her!! Ugh I'm a sucker for some sentimental moments.

There's nothing quite like when the bride's Momma see's her in her wedding dress, when she helps her get dressed and they get to have the most amazing moment together before more chaos ensues.

Adding to the first look moments.. daddy daughter and her bridesmaids. So so so sweet!!

Mercedes and Jerry decided on a first look, which is SO smart in that it allows for a lot more time together on your wedding day! They were able to have a very relaxing morning, much more time for portraits, and they didn't have any portraits that they had to do after their ceremony. They got to go right to partying with their friends and family! It was such a smooth wedding day and oh so beautiful to witness!

They were most looking forward to seeing their love for each other in their photos and I may be partial but I think we nailed that!

They pictured their wedding day to involve their family, friends, and with everyone having a great time.

This moment was so fun! The best man had Jerry put his hand on top of Mercedes hand and said "this is the last time you'll ever have the upper hand!" The whole room erupted in laughter, it was such a fun moment!

I was able to capture the most precious moment between Mercedes and her grandmother. Be still my heart!!

Mercedes and Jerry, I'm so honored to have witnessed the beautiful love between the two of you. We wish you nothing but love and happiness for years to come! Congratulations!!
