Portraits By Lucinda Blog - Kansas City Wedding and Portrait Photographer: Ryan + Natalia

This wedding was so incredibly beautiful! Natalia did such a great job of adding lots of great details throughout the day. I love it when couples really make the wedding unique. You want your wedding to to reflect yourself and she did such a great job at this (see below in the pics).Natalia is one of the sweetest, fun people I have met. I absolutely loved working with her and her husband Ryan, when the day finally came it felt like I was more photographing a wedding for a good friend. Thanks Ryan and Natalia for having my photograph your special day!

Don't you just love these wreaths! I think it's such a cute idea to do the initials. Natalia is so crafty she made them herself! This is such a great cost saving idea. Wreaths are very pricey but if you get some fake flowers and do them yourself it ends up being really inexpensive and adorable.

I loved the chunky red jewelry she found for the bridesmaids. A great modern take on the traditional red and black wedding color scheme.

Natalia handmade all of these beautiful place cards. Another great way to personalize your wedding.

This little ring bearer was so adorable! He fell for the flower girl and made this note for her to ask her to dance with him!!

The Candy Bar - great way to pull in your wedding colors and create a fun place for you guests to load up on candy before the reception.

I love this ice sculpture, how often do you see that?

I highly recommend getting a photo booth, it's a great way to get a picture of all your guests and it's a take home gift they will actually take home!
