Emily and Thomas had visions of an elopement that evolved into a small backyard gathering on family property. It was one of those perfect summer days where even the air itself felt good. Their families came together to create DIY details, including the flowers, and Emily's brother officiated the ceremony, during which many joyous tears were shed.

Everything felt incredibly peaceful and easy. The day was full of magic, whimsy, and genuine love as the sweet couple gathered with all their favorite people. The perfect backyard evening cooled down to just the right temperature, and countless laughs were shared on the dance floor. To this day, my heart feels so full when I look back on this special wedding.
