Petre Wedding

Bride and groom exchanging vows in Old Christ Church

What moment were you most looking forward to seeing in the photos/video? My father walking me down the aisle, looking at my husband for the first time and in the church, and my mother who is my rock making sure her baby girl looks like a dream! -Laura

We love a good ole' traditional ceremony at Old Christ Church in Downtown Pensacola. We often get the chance to photograph there and we love every second. From the tall windows to the historical feel, every part of it feels like a fairytale.

What moment were you most looking forward to seeing in the photos/video? Our first look, our first dance, all the photos with family-Moritz

Moritz was nothing but smiles through their first look before the ceremony. It was intimate, special and the perfect moment along before all the wedding festivities began.

How did you two meet? (Tell us all those little details!) In NYC through my best friend Beth

Tell us about THE dress! What made you fall in love? I asked the designer if I had to represent your line, weighing 100lbs at 5'2, which dress would you put me in? The moment I saw it, it was mine!

Laura's dress fit her like a glove. It was timeless, romantic and perfect for the vibe of the wedding day.

What was your first dance song, and why did you choose it? A thousand years because I know I will be with Moritz this lifetime and many more!

A thousand years definitely holds a special spot in my heart. Every time I hear it, it sends me down memory lane of my own wedding. The joy on Moritz's face was so special.

Describe what you felt when you saw your bride on your wedding day: I was still in disbelief I was getting to marry the woman of my dreams. -Moritz

Describe what you felt when you saw your groom on your wedding day: How handsome of a man, I am the luckiest woman in the world to be marrying the man of my dreams! -Laura

What was the most emotional part of the day for you? Our vows and first dance with my father and husband! -Laura

Father/daughter dances get me every time. It's always something so emotional, not only for the bride, groom and family, but also for me. Sorry not sorry for all the tears rolling down my face behind the camera.

What was the most emotional part of the day for you? Our vows -Moritz

What is ONE moment of your day that you will always remember? Our first look, the dance, and the sparklers.

Laura and Moritz were so sweet throughout the wedding day. From their first look, to their intimate dances together, the day was absolutely PERFECT and we are beyond glad we got to photograph them.
