Caitlin & Matt’s wedding was the ultimate display of love – and talents!

Her parents fixed up their backyard with a gorgeous arbor, amazing retaining wall, and the perfect fire-pitting place.  They added a little bridge over the gully to get to the reception tent.  Caitlin’s dress was handmade by a friend and the various floral elements were all put together by the family.  The food was all prepared at the house (and delicious I might add), the thank you box cookies all homemade, AND the beer and wine brewed by Matt!

The weather was perfect the afternoon they got married – the sun and leaves did their part to add to the gorgeousness, but this wedding would have been just as heart warming and amazing had it poured and all the leaves been blown away.

My favorite part was Caitlin getting ready in her parent’s bedroom, with their wedding photo keeping her company.  My second favorite part was the father daughter dance – just LOOK at how he holds on tight to his little girl.  *sigh*

Make sure you keep your eye out for the chicken wrangler – who was also making speak-easy style martinis at his table!
