Heather & Kelvin . A Capital Plaza Hotel Wedding . Topeka, Kansas

It was an emotional, heartfelt, sweet, sweet wedding day, like a huge hug, where everyone was utterly beside themselves and delighted to see Heather and Kelvin get married. Tears were common, and sentiment ran thick as everyone gathered and prepared for their ceremony.

With clouds covering every inch of the sky, they saw each other for the first time in their wedding attire just outside of the Kansas Capitol building, and the joy that this day had finally arrived was evident in both of their demeanors. Together they and their loved ones took photos, and then they returned to the Capitol Plaza Hotel for their ceremony and reception.

Taking every moment they could, they loved, hugged, and thanked their guests, and then they commenced to party like, I don’t know… they just got married?! Kelvin and Heather’s reception was a multicultural one, uniting his Nigerian culture and her rural Kansas upbringing. It made for a delightful convergence of customs that, though different from one another, pointed towards a common feeling: jubilee.

Thank you, Heather and Kelvin, for letting me be a part of your day, and I wish you the best moving forward in life… married, and, if you don’t mind my saying so, stinkin’ gorgeous.
