Christina & Dave celebrated in one of their favorite places in St. Louis: the Missouri Botanical Gardens. Christina’s mother volunteers with a lot of the garden work at both the Missouri Botanical Gardens and also other grounds around St. Louis such as the Jewel Box where we photographed a wedding the next day. It was so fun having all the connections during our stay in St. Louis for the weekend. They were so sweet to me showing me all the best places around the gardens and giving me so many pointers and great spots around this side of Missouri. I’ve been to St. Louis a lot but never have I seen this side of the state in this way. I think it’s all the love and romance flying around (smiles).

Congratulations to you both. I hope you had a wonderful time celebrating being together before your big day.
