After the ceremony was over, we removed my birdcage veil…
bustled my dress…
made this thing legally binding…
and while our guests and bridal party headed to the cocktail hour…
…we took family photos.
This was the point when I was soooo glad that we did a first look, because family photos take FOREVER, yo!
My parents and siblings.
Mr. Powder Puff’s mom and brother.
Mr. Powder Puff’s dad and step-mom.
I loved that our formal pictures were so casual and natural-looking. I may be a bit biased, but these are some of my favorite family photos that I’ve seen in a long time.
My family.
Mr. Powder Puff’s laaaaarge family!
Finally the family portraits were finished, and we could head over to get our cocktail on!
Yes, the fun actually begins over there.

I agree, those are great family portraits! They’re natural and sincere! You look beautiful!
love the family portraits powder puff! i love how casual and fun they look- not typical family portraits! That’s definitely the look i want when we do ours next summer!
Your family is so cute and you look so happy!! Love it.
Aww… the pics of you guys w/ your minister are so sweet!
wow, you look a lot like your mom and mr. pp bears a lot of resemblance to his brother! Cute shots…I love how relaxed they are!
@LatteLove: I get that a lot! And yeah, Mr. PP’s brother is the spitting image. The groomsmen were calling him Mr. PP’s twin at the wedding!
That’s so cool you were able to get a picture with you pastor. Your family portraits are so natural and happy too.
i mean, his expressions towards you both are really sweet…
I second LatteLove, I’m loving the family resemblance. Your first family pic is so cute!
I can’t get over how great you look! And all of these pics look great - I can’t get over the endearing photos with your pastor!!!
i can’t believe how similiar mr. pp and his brother are! and i am also a fan of the pictures with your pastor. so cute!
Looks awesome!!! I love your “posed” family portraits. I think it’s because they’re outside. I’m going to see about doing mine outside my church….it’s out in the country next to nothing so I’m sure they would make some great photos.
Gorgeous photos, gorgeous couple, gorgeous bridal party, gorgeous family. As always!
Wow, Mr. PP does have a large family! I’m thinkin I’ll forward our photog your family photos, they have a more casual feel that I’m looking for!
