Lizzie and Jesse were married on February 28 and let me say that this is probably one of the coolest weddings I have ever shot! Lizzie has been planning this gorgeous vintage wedding for months, and the whole day went off seamlessly. Originally the couple had planned to get married in front of a gigantic oak tree near the lodge, but in the end, with threatening rain, the whole ceremony had to be moved inside. But Lizzie, being the cool head she is, said “no worries!”.
The inside of the lodge had this gorgeous stone hearth, and Lizzie had family and friends run out last minute and buy pillar candles for the mantle for a candlelight ceremony. And let me tell you, it was absolutely stunning.
This is a LONG post, so sit pull up a chair and relax, because there were seriously so many things I loved about this wedding, I went a little crazy shooting.
Lizzie and Jesse, I am so proud to call you both my friends. Lizzie, i’m so proud that I have a friend that loves “antiquing” as much as I do!
Your wedding was gorgeous and I loved all the thought and detail you put into your day.
Love ya both!
Lauren

Lizzie MADE this! I know, she’s uber awesome. I told her she should make them and sell them!

My jaw dropped when I saw her dress. Lizzie had been describing it for months to me but nothing could prepare me for it. It looks ivory but it’s actually a rose color!

You know it’s going to be a good wedding when the bride wears purple shoes.

Bridesmaids gifts!

Gorgeous Bride!

A few ceremony details. “Creature from the Black Lagoon” was filmed here!

Meanwhile, outside the guys were hanging out. I love their driving caps!

Married!

First few moments as man and wife.

First dance.

And then it was time to get down! They sure knew how to party! They danced the night away!

Thanks to my second shooter, Charlotte, for coming and hanging out!
