We met for their first look at a beautiful, secluded overlook in the late morning.

After their first look we went hiking in beautiful dappled light so they could have quiet time together before meeting family for their ceremony in the woods.

They had a family friend officiate their ceremony and Laura was walked down the path “aisle” by her father.

Their family met us where their ceremony would be and brought along some folding chairs for everyone to sit on.

After the ceremony they had drinks and snacks while we took family photos and group photos. We even took individual couple / family photos for their guests so they had update family portraits! Because there was enough time and few enough guests, it was easy to make time for this and made a nice gift for each couple and family who came along.

After their ceremony we drove back to the houses they had rented where they had cakes and lunch and opened gifts and popped champagne. They signed their marriage license, too, and took polaroid photos.

Their invitations were all hand written. They alternated who wrote which line so that each invitation was written by both of them.
