Jeff and Joelle were married at her parents property on a perfect summer day. The kind where it's warm but not too warm, and the light seems to fall beautifully everywhere. The backdrop for their "I do's" was a beautiful clearing in the Forrest behind her parents house with rustic log seating plenty of wild flowers and the most beautiful arch! Vintage details decorated the area and candles and tiki torches lit the path. It was truly magical.
Their wedding was full of sentiment and detail. Joelle carried her mother-in-law's purse and Jeff wore his dad's boots. Both were touching tributes to those who could not be there physicaly but I'm certain we're there in spirit.
Joelle's dear friend made each bridesmaid a custom bracelet. They were so delicate and beautiful!
When I look back at their wedding I remember the laid back fun atmosphere the most. These two love each other and those around them with such authenticity and ease. Some of their friends and family danced into the night. Some sat by the fire gazing up at the stars while others played lawn games. As I packed up my gear I could hear the laughter and see the smiles. It warmed my soul. Happy belated Anniversary you two! I hope you find time to focus on each other during these busy baby days.
