LET LOVE

FROM BRITT’S EYE VIEW

Katey met Jonathan during the very first day of anatomy class. The two had both arrived early, hoping to start the semester off on the right foot and rather than hitting the books, the two found each other. As the semester rolled on, the first test arrived and when Jonathan scored a much higher grade, Katey decided she’d hitch her boat to his, and the two were inseparable since.

As the two grew in love, Jonathan felt it was time to make things official and get a ring on Katey’s finger. He wanted to plan the perfect day that Katey would always remember, so he came up with “Spoil Katey Day.” He got her a manicure, pedicure, massage, shopping spree, everything a girl could dream of. At the end of the day, they arrived back at Katey’s house where he had arranged a photo collage of the two of them together over the years, just as Katey was going to turn around to thank him, she found Jonathan down on one knee asking her to spend the rest of her life with him. She of course said yes, and the planning soon began.

While many girls dream about that perfect Cinderella wedding in the castle, Katey’s dream of her perfect day was a little different. Her perfect day revolved more around special family moments that would honor all the loved ones in her life. She had always hoped to tie the knot on her parent’s farm, so when the time came she knew exactly where she was going to host her dream day. Not only was the venue significant, but also she chose to honor her grandparent’s love by tying the knot on their wedding anniversary.

Besides choosing to create a day centered around family and love, Katey’s vision was also one where everyone could come as they are and enjoy the loveliness of true love. She wanted to create an atmosphere that was fun and fancy-free, where everyone felt at home, and that’s exactly what she got.

The day was perfectly styled with whimsical floral, sweet vintage touches throughout the entire day, and most importantly the feeling of true love in the air.

Wanting to do something special and unique during the ceremony, the two decided to plant a unity tree. They planted a tree at Katey’s parent’s home and sprinkled dirt from each of their hometowns around the tree’s base so that the tree had a piece of each of them.

As they stood together planting this new tree, they took a moment to pray over the future of their marriage and looked forward to visit the tree as it grew alongside their own new life together.

B RA NDON B URTON P HOTO GRA PHY

When Sterling popped the question he did so in the perfect way for Danielle. She arrived at home and found a note on the garage with her first clue, this led her on a scavenger hunt throughout her house that ended her up at her dream proposal to the man of her dreams.

Once she had the ring, she knew she wanted to create the perfect rustic and vintage soiree, full of one-of-a-kind details and vintage charm.

Hosting her wedding at the beautiful Clauren Ridge Winery, Danielle wanted to incorporate the wine theme into her ceremony so the two included a wine box into the special occasion. Both Sterling and Danielle had their parents write them letters that they enclosed in a box along with a bottle of wine, so that they two of them could open them and read the letters on their five year anniversary.

Of all the special moments throughout her day, the moment that stood out the most was that second when she walked through the doors to the top of the aisle and saw before her all her friends, family, and the man of her dreams.

Working with Brandon was one of Danielle’s favorite wedding vendor relationships. He helped ease her wedding photo anxiety and helped bring out her true self in each and every one of her photos.
