Jayden + Jamie's Youngstown Wedding | Stambaugh Auditorium | Youngstown Ohio Wedding Photographer

Today on the blog I'm featuring Jayden + Jamie's stunning wedding at Stambaugh Auditorium in downtown Youngstown! Jayden and Jamie are some of the happiest, most go with the flow type of people I've ever met. I knew this about Jamie when I first met her years ago while studying art and working at Youngstown State University. She would seriously just make me laugh every time we were together because she has such an infectiously joyful personality. When I met Jayden a year ago for their engagement photos I knew they were a good fit for each other. These are truly my favorite kind of couples. The ones you just look at and go, "good job at finding one another!" They're just so cute and perfect together!

Throughout this whole process they just wanted to have fun and make it as sweet and memorable as possible. Because their wedding and reception were both at Stambaugh Auditorium they didn't have to worry about traveling between locations or anything - they just hung out in one gorgeous building the whole time.  No complaining there! Especially when you see just how pretty it is...

I will never get over Stambaugh Auditorium's  ceremony room.

Jamie's dress was beyond beautiful. We had fun hanging it all over the place for photos!

The girls had a bridal suite in Stambaugh Auditorium to get ready in. Lots of memories are made here!

Go time!

Some of my favorite photos from every wedding. Mamas and bridesmaids helping the bride with the dress.

All those buttons!

Praying before the ceremony. <3

Let the ceremony begin! Yay!

Sorry it seems I have a giant dust in my eye... SWEETEST REACTION EVER.

The new Mr. & Mrs. :)

After the evening ceremony ended we had some time before the reception began to take bride & groom photos. We started outside as the sun had just dipped below the horizon and we wanted to use any remaining natural light we could. One great thing about Stambaugh Auditorium is you can't go wrong. The inside and outside both have amazing architectural elements and it really gives photos that wow factor. 

Time for the reception to begin! Have you ever seen more unique centerpieces? 

A stunning cake from Bake Me Treats (I'm a fan).

She got him! Haha!!

The Mother/Son dance was an emotional one.

Jayden + Jamie, thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of such an amazing time in your lives.
