Kristen & Josh Eighner | September 20th, 2014

---

Kristen & Josh have been together as long as I have known the two of them. I first met the two of them in college, and instantly recognized the love they had for each other. So when they decided to become Mr. & Mrs. Eighner , I was not surprised, but delighted that it was official! Josh’s family farms, so we met at his family farm for their engagement session, along with Middlefork Park. They brought along their sweet yellow lab, and we had a blast!

Their wedding day was even more fun, as their wedding party was a hoot to work with! Kristen and Josh opted for a first look, and it left so much time for us to relax for pictures! They were married in Paxton at the Lutheran church, and the reception was in Cissna Park. We began the day with some winds, but luckily not a drop. Kristen began her descend down the aisle towards the man of her dreams, and then it got dark. As Kristen and Josh became Mr. & Mrs. Eighner, the heavens opened up outside, and it poured. The couple kissed, and the rain stopped immediately. The sun came out, and we didn’t see a rain cloud in sight the rest of the night. It was perfect.

I hope you all cherish these photos of your big day. To Josh and Kristen Eighner, thank you for including me on the biggest day of your lives!
