I love- Florida, weddings, and backyards so you could imagine my excitement when Bryan + Katie asked me to photograph their backyard wedding in Florida!
Most of the backyard weddings I've shot have been in the yard of the home of a parent, a home where either the bride or groom has grown up and that's just so sweet and romantic to me! Although I am a fan of all kinds of weddings, there is something so sweet and laid back about a backyard wedding that I really appreciate and Bryan and Katie's was no exception.
Katie has an online vintage clothes store and she sourced a lot of really cool wedding details from local vintage shops, Etsy, and of course, all the amazing thrift stores that Florida has to offer for both her and Bryan as well as decorations.
Everything was perfect. The landscaping in this backyard was amazing. It was like a perfectly curated fern gully. I was in heaven. Tall trees, palms, spanish moss. I would absolutely live there if I could! I loved the hankies she had for guests to wipe their tears during the ceremony. They also had these doily bombs on the tables and on some of the trees. Did you hear me? They decorated the trees! How perfect is that?!
B+K walked down the aisle of vintage chairs to the end of a luscious backyard, had their first dances on the deck of the house, cut their cake in the beautiful screened in porch of the home Katie grew up in and ate all the southern goodness inside and outside with their closest friends and family. Doesn't that sound rad? It was!
I was lucky enough to have my husband working alongside of me shooting video at this wedding! Take a peek at their super cute video here.
Thank you, Bryan and Katie for letting us be a part of such a beautiful day!
