Lauritzen Gardens Wedding: Jess & Henk


We recently photographed Jess and Henk's wedding at the Lauritzen Gardens in Omaha, Nebraska. It was a beautiful wedding and both Shane and I enjoyed the time we spent capturing their day. In the brief amount of time we spent with Jess and Henk both Shane and I were impressed by the kindness, thought and care they both shared for others and they made it a joy to work for them.

Even though we are available worldwide and have lived throughout the US, there is a big part of us that now calls Nebraska home. Prior to a wedding, the couple or event designer will complete a wedding questionnaire for us. This questionnaire tells us the general expectations the couple has for us as well as the vendors they will be working with that day. Having a vendor list w/ names and numbers has always proven to be extremely helpful, but with Jess and Henk, I was pleasantly surprised that I had not only worked with many of their vendors, but they were also some of my favorites for the Nebraska area. So, we've decided in this blog to also share with you a few of the favorites that we've worked with for couples from the Nebraska area that Jess and Henk also chose on their wedding day:

Makeup Artist/ Hair Designer ~ Ann Luchsinger






Gown Boutique ~ Laura's Couture Collection
*** Also accompanies us as a selected Grace Ormonde Platinum List Vendor ***




Music ~ The Confidentials




Florist ~ Beyond the Vine
