Doug and Carol's Wedding day!

From the moment I sat down to meet Carol and Doug, I was instantly drawn into their story and relationship. They were introduced to each other through mutual friends,


and the rest is history.

Doug was beaming when I saw him at the church (Trinity Lutheran)



He greeted everyone coming in with a smile from ear to ear.



Carol was very excited to walk down the aisle and to finally call Doug her husband and to say that they're married.



She has the best laugh too..full of energy and happiness. They have such a love for their growing family and their whole celebration was focused on everyone just having a great time!

















We had an amazing sunny skied day with just the right amount of breeze. The park lodge where the reception took place (Black Creek Park) was so laid back and comfortable that it was more like a family reunion/picnic.





There were dozens of children running around playing games that they had provided for them in buckets like bubbles and Frisbee's. Little girls chasing little boys, rolling down hills, climbing trees...it was a perfect day!




















There was a beautiful toast given by family members and many thanks to the guests from Doug and Carol.


Dinner was a BBQ spread



and dessert was hosted by Abbotts... with all the fixin's.



One of my favorite moments was right after Doug and Carol got their sundaes. They were about to dig in when I suggested they feed it to each other since they weren't doing the traditional cake cutting. They loved the idea, and as soon as they fed each other, their faces scouled! We realized that they each fed each other their own sundae... so their first bite was that of the other's sundae...with toppings they weren't expecting. Everyone was laughing. So then they switched and everything was saved. :)









They shared their first dance in the lodge, and then the kids danced around the floor ~ it was such a wonderful celebration.









With it being picnic style, we had a wonderful opportunity to take some group shots with lots of requests too!









Congratulations Doug and Carol! Thank you so much for inviting me into your day...you're so blessed to have found each other to share your lives with.
