I met Paul while working in Alaska for the summer. I was freshly graduated with my art degree and thought, "what should I do now??? ... hmm... think I'll move to Alaska for the summer!" Part of the way through the summer he started working part-time at the little one-hour-photo/rafting-photography-tourist-trap as me. He was a ball of energy and positivity and I immediately knew we would get along great! He met his gorgeous and talented actress/singer/yoga instructor (trifecta, right?!) girlfriend while he was there the year before and they were inseparable! We kept in touch after that summer and I saw him once or twice the following year or two in Kansas City when he played/sang at a local dueling piano bar (did I mention that he is also an amazing musician?). * Shameless plug: check out www.paulseiz.com *
And was I ever surprised -and very excited- to get a text from him one fall night asking what I was doing the following April! When I asked him why, he said something to the effect of "matrimony" and "we need a good shutterbug" :) To which I replied "OMG yay! OF COURSE! I'd love to!" ...or something like that. Lucky for me, Brooke is from Kansas City where I was planted at that time!
The early April day was warm and sunny, the venue was beautiful, and what a phenomenal and fun couple! The wedding party was playful and hilarious. And, in good Paul fashion, he donned a plastic splash guard for the cake smashing and a headlamp to find that pesky garter! The two of them sang several duets and they and their guests nearly danced through the floor that night :)
And so, it being a little over a year since their "matrimony", here is a sampling of the pictures from their wedding. I'll try not to stick too many in here, but there are so many great ones to choose from!
