Emily + Alex’s Wedding Day

Emily + Alex had a stunning day from beginning to end—the sun was shining beautifully through the windows at the conservatory illuminating the most gorgeous floral arrangements. They had a great time getting ready with their friends and family, having a toast with their wedding parties, and enjoying the start to a magical day.

After getting ready, Emily + Alex shared their vows overlooking the lake during a beautiful outdoor ceremony surrounded by family and friends from all over the country. It was heartfelt and intentional as they wove their faith into their celebration.

E+A are such a sweet couple and everything they created for their day was filled with beauty and love. They were at ease in one another’s presence and made each other smile and laugh.

Alex + Emily were surrounded by a wonderful wedding party. Their friends and family were invested in their celebration and it showed!

We had a blast with these two and their people all day long, but especially on the dance floor with the LED light sticks! For those who didn’t want to dance, they mingled outside on the covered pergola and enjoyed a drink. The twinkle lights came on as the sun set and the fresh air of a summer night rolled in.

Diana + Richie’s Wedding Day

Diana + Richie created such a beautiful winter solstice wedding day that incorporated all the things that make them happy. The sun made the conservatory nice and warm as it shone through the windows.

D+R shared their first look as they walked down the aisle together in front of their guests. It was such a unique and beautiful moment to witness as they walked into their wedding ceremony hand in hand. Their vows were heartfelt and emotional—from joyful laughter to happy tears. It was all made even more romantic with a string quartet playing beautiful songs beside them.

Throughout their portraits, you could feel the love that Diana + Richie have for one another. It was a chilly winter day and these two cozied up to one another happily (plus Diana was wearing an epic fur coat to keep her warm). As a couple who love the outdoors, their portraits around the lake at blue hour were special as they explored the woods surrounding the frozen lake.

Friends and family were ready to celebrate Diana + Richie whether they were speaking during the ceremony or partying on the dance floor. Cloud Nine DJ had an epic playlist all night that kept guests moving on the floor with LED light sticks.

The covered pergola was ready to go for winter with heaters for those who wanted to take a break from dancing and work on a custom puzzle made from Richie + Diana’s engagement photos. There was also Every’s Ice Cream set up throughout the evening which was a delicious treat!

• We adored the idea of combining a first look while walking down the aisle together—this was unique and personal idea for Diana + Richie that helped them to feel comfortable at the start of their ceremony.
• A petal bar was such a good idea! When Emily + Alex walked up the aisle together, their guests tossed the flower petals around them. It was beautiful and their smiles said it all!
• As the sun was setting on the summer solstice, Emily + Alex shared a toast with some ice-cold beers before enjoying some private time together outside by the lake and the woods. Diana + Richie bundled up on the winter solstice to explore the woods around the frozen lake with lanterns which made for a perfect quiet moment for the two of them.
• As the night went on, Emily + Alex had a snack bar open with different kinds of popcorn and other goodies for their guests to enjoy. Diana + Richie had an ice cream cart from Every’s Ice Cream for guests to snack on.
• Both couples had great DJs, an epic dance floor, and LED light sticks that were such a cool addition as it got dark outside.
• The mingling outside on the covered pergola as the evening went on was great whether it was on the summer solstice or winter solstice. It’s the perfect spot with a view for the party to continue outside complete with heaters in the winter.
