Married under the Willow Tree | Amanda & Patrick

Weddings

Aug 15

What could be more perfect than getting married under the willow tree in the yard where you grew up? Amanda & Patrick had the perfect summer day complete with family and friends as they said their vows in this beautiful spot. We even photographed part of their snowy Winter Engagement session next to this amazing tree!

From Yoga to Fireworks

The warm sun, soft breeze, and sounds of water lapping along the shore set the tone as the day began with yoga on the lawn. And the night ended with a bang as the crowd cheered and fireworks burst above the newlyweds.

First Look

There was an especially beautiful moment when Amanda made her way through the sunny grass to greet Patrick & their sweet pup Jax for their first look. Amanda’s dad followed for a “first look” with his beautiful daughter and dancing on the dock. It was amazing!

Wedding Day Fun

There was plenty of wedding day fun mixed in throughout the day along with yummy tacos, dancing, singing, laughter, and happy tears.

Congratulations Amanda & Patrick! It was such an honor to capture these images of your most amazing day! Wishing you all the best!
