Julie + Aaron Wed by Amy! Post 1

I posted Julie and Aaron's rehearsal day photos last week and I am excited to share their wedding photos. Julie's family has a beautiful farm in Smithfield KY (check out all the animals in the rehearsal day post) and the girls got ready there. Their ceremony and reception was at the home of the world famous Kentucky Derby, Churchill Downs.

This is post 1 of 2.

Kara from Kara Leigh Photography was my second photographer for the day.

I love her belt detail.

The girls enjoyed mimosas while they got their makeup done in their matching bridesmaid t-shirts.
I thought Julie's earrings were so cute. They were a gift, handmade from a friend.

Julie's brother and sister-in-law were peeking in to watch Julie get ready

Julie's mom Carol loves Julie so much and was so filled will emotions all weekend.

Julie had her Dad put on her necklace

If you are a race fan, you will notice this sign is different that what is usually between the spires at Churchill. This is because they were filming a movie the next week and all the signage had to be back-dated to 1973. Very interesting :) Even more cool is our own marketing maven, Rachel was cast in the movie as a "High-class fan"
