Rebekah Burrus and Ronald Martin were married on October 10th, 2009 at the Magic Chef Mansion in St. Louis, Missouri. The historical house provided an intimate atmosphere for the family to prepare themsleves before the ceremony.

Surrounded by her bridesmaids, Rebekah excitedly added finishing touches to her look.  The rebel in her, added polish to her toe nail as something blue.  The lighting in the mansion was perfect for photos and was not over looked by Artistic Soup Wedding Photography of St. Louis, Missouri.  Rebekah posed playfully in the doorway of the private room upstairs awaiting a pre-arranged meeting between her and her husband to be.

A long stair case added to the anticipation of meeting her groom at the bottom.  With his back turned, he waited for his stunning bride to reach the base of the steps.

The ceremony that followed allowed Rebekah and Ronald to express themselves through self composed vows.

On the Magic Chef Mansion grounds, plenty of beautiful architecture provided opportunities for creative photography by Artistic Soup.  The evening light added a romantic feel to the union.

After the ceremony the reception followed at Moulin of St. Louis, Missouri. The couple stayed classic with their choice of a black and white cake.  The family and friends celebrated the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Martin enjoying along with them the bouquet toss and garter toss.  Artistic Soup Wedding Photography had the honor of photographing the heart felt event.

Wedding: September 6, 2009

Two dynamic artists…an interior designer, Sarah, and a graphic designer, Alex, after over a decade of sharing creative thoughts and being best friends officially united on a beautiful day in September with their closest family and friends at the Missouri Botanical Gardens’ Chinese Garden http://www.mobot.org/

With a thirst for beauty and creativity, prior to the wedding Sarah and Alex carefully scouted every inch of the Garden and the Artistic Soup photographer enjoyed after the ceremony artistically capturing them, their family and friends in these special areas.

The Third Degree Glass Factory http://www.thirddegreeglassfactory.com/ was the reception venue and with its colorful urban edge made for a perfect creative stage to celebrate their passions – art and each other.

Liz and Cody who will be married June of 2010 selected Creve Coeur Park for their engagement session location and the park offered a perfect natural backdrop for their session. The unique walkways and paths, the beach and sunset beautifully highlighted the couple’s playful and loving connection with one another.

Artistic Soup Wedding Photography is grateful to have such wonderful couples to work with and so many wonderful locations locally. Liz & Cody…Thank you and we look forward to photographing your wedding next year.

Courtney Brown and Lucas Coffin were married on June 6th 2009.

The young couple’s fairytale wedding took place at the Larimore Plantation House http://www.larimoreweddings.com/.

The expansive plantation dedicated for weddings was large enough for the groomsmen to be photographed in all of the interesting outdoor signature locations of the venue while still allowing the bride and bridesmaids to be photographed  in the plantation house before the ceremony.

On a horse drawn carriage, Courtney’s smile lit up the start of the ceremony as she was brought to her husband to be.  After the “I dos” were exchanged, the guests waved while the wedding party stood on the balcony of the Larimore House and threw rose petals sending the couple off in style.  A  perfect photo moment.

A special gift of an original song written by the groom added a personal touch to the couple’s day.  Courtney and Lucas danced to their song for the first time as husband and wife under sparkling lights.

Artistic Soup Wedding Photography was honored to photograph this fairy tale wedding and be a part of the union between two such special individuals as Courtney and Lucas.
