A slight fairytale themed wedding at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church + LiUNA

A preview of Brittany and Joe Burian's November wedding.

Brittany and Joe met on the Facebook dating site. For the first date, they went on a walk at Quail Ridge Park in Wentzville. ​

Joe proposed in Florida at Discovery Cove during a dolphin swim! Marea, a dolphin there, swim over with a little white boat bout, that said “Brittany, will you marry me? Brittany said "yes!", and finally noticed that her parents and brother were in disguise in the beach area.😂 ​

Joe and Brittany have a hard time describing each other and just one word. There were a couple words that we noticed repeated themselves that the both used to describe each other, such as patient, loving, and goofy and a beautiful smile. Perfect words to describe these two! ​

We started the day with getting ready at the two separate hotels. Then we all headed to the zoo for multiple first looks with Brittany's Dad, brother, uncle and finally her groom. ​

Brittany's dress was amazing! It was a Mia Grace - Disney Fairy Tale Wedding Allure Collection – Cinderella 2022. Complete with long cathedral vail, furry shawl, and long elegant gloves.  

We highly recommend doing a first look before the ceremony to help settle any nerves you might have. This can also be helpful if you don’t have much time in between the ceremony and reception to get formal pictures finished. ​

They had a traditional Catholic ceremony at our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church.

After the ceremony we went to forest park for more photos but the wind had picked up and it was even colder then earlier. Everyone toughed it out for a few photos but then Brittany called it and they piled into the warm bus and went on to the reception.

The reception was at LIUNA in the Sunset Hills area. ​

The hall was decorated in all of Brittany and Joe's favorite things! Each table had a unique and handmade centerpiece that showed a small window into the couples lives, displaying their many hobby and interests. These two have SO MANY hobbies, interest and TV shows/movies and things that they love. Harry Potter, Star Wars, Disney, Stranger Things, Animals (Brittany has three horses and a snake), and Aquariums. ​

Brittany and Joe had a choreograph first dance. It was incredible!​

Another thing we recommend is having a choreograph first dance. It's a great way to keep your guests entertained during your first dance! ​

We loved getting to know these two and had a wonderful time photographing and filming their wedding!

Congratulations and Best wishes!
