Real Wedding: Stephanie and Nathan, III
I heart today’s real wedding. And in a big way. It’s casual, while still seemingly formal. It’s budget, while capturing a completely expensive style. It’s all about the romance, the beauty of the day and the absolutely fabulous couple.
If you are just now joining us, Jennifer over at Alders Photography sent us this affair, and I am in love! It took place this past May at Sailboat Cove in Paradise, Missouri…

This was a really personal and intimate wedding. It is also a “low budget” wedding…the bride found the chandeliers, lanterns, and table decorations at flea markets and consignment stores and dressed them all up with home-made crystals. They also had a fun DIY photo booth with props borrowed from their four nieces. It just goes to show that you can make personal decisions without breaking the bank. So while this isn’t an example of an extravagant and expensive wedding, I think it’s the perfect example of a detailed, personal, and unique wedding.
I love the hanging chandelier from the trees! I also love how there is so much green and nature. Beautiful wedding!
her dress, her bouquet, her necklace.... sheer perfection! pam
I always love chandeliers hanging from trees so beautiful and unexpected!
what an incredible wedding :)
Wow.....looks amazing! I love the chandeliers, she looks gorgeous. What a great couple! Beautiful pics too!
The key is picking a location that doesn't need much work! The spot we were in was a picnic area-Tons of natural greenery and shade. Also, it was not the same high price as renting a wedding/reception location. It only cost $75 to reserve the area- and then $5 a car for parking- all in all I think the location was only around $400.
I had my heart set on that chandelier from day 1 =)
Thanks ladies for the lovely and unexpected compliments!
Cool. We are planning a wedding there in October. I can't wait!
Very nice wedding photos!
