On the morning of the wedding, Brooklyn got ready with her closest ladies in the bridal suite and Colton got ready with his crew in the groom’s suite.

Pre-Ceremony

The couple chose a rustic aesthetic and brought on vendors that could execute their vision.

The ceremony was held in the field and culminated at a wooden arbor draped in fabric and florals.

Before the ceremony, the bride did a first look with her dad and brothers.

Then the couple did a first touch and read their private vows to each other.

Ceremony

Colton walked down the aisle to “Don’t Stop me Now” by Queen, followed by family and the wedding party, who walked down the aisle to an instrumental cover of “A Thousand Years”. Brooklyn was escorted down the aisle by her dad to an instrumental cover of “I See the Light”.

The ceremony was short and sweet, built on their Christian faith.

Cocktail Hour

While the guests went to cocktail hour, Brooklyn and Colton took photos with their family, wedding party, and their formal couple portraits on the side lawn and by the barn, perfect for their rustic wedding.

The couple wanted to do a room reveal while everyone was still at cocktail hour to see how their vision came to life.

Reception

The reception started with the unique intros of the wedding party, followed by the newlyweds coming in to “Best Day of my Life” by Imagine Dragons.

The couple went straight into the first dance - “Chasing Cars” by Snow Patrol, followed by the mother son and father daughter dances.

When dinner was over, the father of the bride, maid of honor, and best man delivered heartfelt toasts to the couple.

Afterwards, the couple cut their cake, did a one song photobomb, and then opened the dance floor.

While everyone danced, we snuck out for some golden hour photos, and then returned for the bouquet toss.

Grand Exit

After the couple’s private last dance, they walked out through cascading bubbles to end their night, backlit by cold sparks.
