Wow, I have so many things I want to say about Norvin and Dawn, but instead I will try and let the photos do most of the talking.

You may recognize these lovebirds from their engagement session a few months ago.  Since then, Norvin left to work on a huge ship (he is a Merchant Marine) and came home 10 days prior to the wedding!  Dawn is such a trooper!

The day started at the new Marriott Courtyard in the NTC Liberty Station.  As soon as I walked in, this is what I saw.

Then of course, there are the details!

Her dress was custom made!

 

The stunning bride:

This really shows the difference in men and women.  Here is the couple just a few minutes before the ceremony.

 

The ceremony at The North Chapel.

 

 

 

 

The off to the Reception spot!  I’m loving these lanterns!

And of course, the ring shots!

A quick shot during dinner!

I spotted this stairwell that leads to the top of a building. It overlooked the reception perfectly.  I think it was nice for them to take a second and look over at what they created!

The groomsmen making their speech!

First dance.

Another shot from the top of the building!  Breathtaking.
