In the heart of Kansas City, Courtney and Jensen Knight chose a simple yet beautiful location for their elopement at the Johnson County Courthouse. A handful of cherished family and friends joined together for their intimate ceremony on a bright and sunny day!

Courtney wore a stunning off-the-shoulder gown, in a classic white. Her dress was complemented by a bouquet of beautiful white hydrangeas. Jensen wore a traditional black suit with a white boutonniere to match Courtney’s bouquet.

The couple didn’t have a bridal party. Which is common with elopements and also continues to grow in popularity for weddings of all sizes. With no wedding party, both of their mother’s signed the marriage certificate as witnesses.

It wasn’t about lavishness, but the sincerity of their love. It a brightly lit corner of the glass-walled courthouse, they shared their vows, surrounded by their closest family and friends.

After the ceremony we headed outside to capture some moments of the new bride and groom, as well as family and group photos. The Johnson County Courthouse is as incredibly beautiful building and photographs wonderfully.

I feel blessed to have been asked to capture this special day for Courtney and Jensen and I especially wish them so much love and happiness as they continue on their journey together as husband and wife!
