Vintage Grace

Keera and I met at a wedding that we worked together earlier this year. Her video work blew me away and she is the sweetest person on the planet.  So imagine my delight when she contacted me to work with her on her wedding. Keera and Jacob were married in a small ceremony on her parents property. The intimate gathering of close family and friends on the back patio and field were the perfect touch for this couple’s love of simplicity. Keera’s favorite flower is the iris and getting to add these into her decor was something uniquely different and we were so excited with the results. A rich palette of gold, blue and neutrals decorated the day and as the evening set in and the air grew crisp her black leather jacket added a touch of flair. These adorable memories were captured by Christian Gideon Photography  A perfect ending to a perfect day.

Luxury Lodge

Dipped in fields of gold where the buffalo roam is the serene lodge of Buffalo Lodge Warm and embracing it was the perfect backdrop for Hannah and Tyler’s memorial wedding day. “The emotions flying around were hands down the strongest.. I’ve seen.
These two have a fairy tale romance, from knowing each other since they were little kids and Hannah always having a crush on her big brother’s best friend (writing MRS. Hahn} as little girls do. Who could have imagined her dreams coming true 15 years later.
The way Tyler looks at her is indescribable.
… I know that a love is more powerful than anything on this earth.”-Monphotography   Oh, how we love and adore this couple who both lost their fathers. A tweed jacket from each dad draped over a chair on each side of the aisle captured the missing but not forgotten loved ones. An Amazing and powerful day. Congrats to you both!

Misty Mansion

A little misty dew didn’t dampen this day. The Lovely Alena and Austin had the wedding of their dreams. Wanting a small getaway wedding was out of reach with a large extended family. So a compromise of a small intimate ceremony and reception with only imitate friends and family followed by a large ball with everyone invited.  Dancing way into the evening was the perfect blend mixed with down times of yard games, Antipasto bar and dessert bar of her’s and his. The personal ceremony made special with a ceremonial blanket made by the grooms mother and sprinkled with petals and herbs by mothers added a unique touch to this perfect day. Congrats to this beautiful couple.
