Utah Wedding Photography - Molly + Dustin - Pierpont Place

Molly and Dustin had their wedding at the very hip Pierpont Place on May 14, 2009. This was a non-stop action packed wedding and so very modern. I just love how the seasonal lilacs got mixed into the arrangements and the icy gray suit Dustin was wearing. You may remember their engagement pictures in Park City. I had so much fun being part of their wedding day. Friends and family can view this entire event and order prints HERE.

Occupations: Dustin: Student/ski bum, Molly: urban planner

How the couple met: through Dustin’s younger brother Wade…who ironically was Molly’s Homecoming date in High School

How he proposed: Dustin secretly flew to Portland (where Molly was living), called her & told her to drive to a secret spot (he gave her the address so she could put it in her GPS in her car). When she arrived he was waiting there for her along the banks of the Willamette River in downtown Portland…He got down on one knee and the rest is history.

Bridal shower/Bachelorette party: Vegas with the girls…it was mild fun.

Bachelor party: Tool party with the fellas…
