John & Melissa’s Wedding | The Mansion in Butler

John and Melissa were married on September 15th 2018, with a ceremony at St. Ferdinand’s Church and a reception at the Mansion in Butler.

I loved their engagement story: They were at a family picnic with Melissa’s family when John decided to put a ring in a water balloon during the annual balloon toss. They were about to win the toss, too . . . and then the balloon popped all over Melissa! Still, even though she was soaked, she felt like a winner. He proposed to her right there in front of her family—as well as her three best friends that he had arranged to bring out.

That story totally matches the two of them. They are so much fun—and so laid-back. They even had the best meal I’ve ever had at a wedding—bar none! They had Olive Garden, Pizza, and Chick-Fil-A! How amazing is that?

I also adored the venue they chose for their wedding. I love the Mansion in Butler! Anytime I get to photograph there, I can feel my creativity let loose! We made sure to take full advantage of the setting with an outdoors first look and then some amazing photographs at the golden hour and sunset in the woods. I love how they turned out!

Thank you, John & Melissa, for a fun wedding and the best wedding meal ever! I hope you had an amazing time in Kauai. Thanks also to my second shooter, Manny, for your help getting some beautiful photographs.

Cody & Caitlyn’s Succop Nature Park Wedding

Succop Nature Park Wedding Krystal Healy Photography

Cody and Caitlyn were married on September 8th 2018, with a ceremony and reception at Succop Nature Park in Butler, Pennsylvania.

A Rainy Succop Nature Park Wedding

These two are amazingly calm and collected—even when Mother Nature seemed to be conspiring against them! They had hoped to have their ceremony outside in front of the willow tree and lake, but the rain forced us under the pavilion instead. It was raining all day!

But that couldn’t stop Cody and Caitlyn. They were up for everything I asked of them, including a first look with umbrellas in the rain. We even did all the photos outside, despite the weather! It didn’t matter to them, because they knew what was really important about their wedding day. They had their flower dog, they had their family, and they had each other. That was all that mattered!

The ceremony was one of the best parts of the day, hands down. Everyone’s faces were wet—and not just from the rain. There were MANY tears of joy.

And it wasn’t just Cody and Caitlyn that handled the weather like champs. The girls all had beautiful white gowns that complemented Caitlyn’s SO well. Together, they braved the weather to stick with their friends. And the groomsmen helped out by carrying the cake to the pavilion with an umbrella to protect it from the rain! There was so much love through this wedding.

Cody & Caitlyn, thank you for being willing to adventure out into the rain and create some truly memorable photographs! I especially loved the night shot in the rain! Thanks also to my second shooter, Angie, for being so amazing! It was such an honor to be your rainy day wedding photographer.
