Salt Lake City, Utah Wedding by Duston Todd
We are continuing down the path of mini wedding festivities with a doozy of a wedding. If you are all about sweet family affairs and intimate backyard details, you will most likely fall head over pretty heels for this. The trees, the lanterns, the lovely maids all in a row…we just can’t get enough. You can find the full wedding day from Duston Todd Photography in the gallery. Happy gazing!

From Duston Todd:
This was a beautiful backyard wedding and reception. The late summer sun and flowers were truly abundant throughout the day. There were also a ton of charming details and DIY decor: ribbons and lanterns in the trees, lovely food, and grandma’s house (literally) as a backdrop. The bride and groom were much more interested in a relaxing and soothing summer evening event. When I asked if they wanted to dance or cut the cake or bouquet toss or anything on the traditional/formal side – it was the least of their priorities. They really just wanted to soak up the ambiance, visit with those they love and remember the moments of it all. (and i thought that was just perfect).
From the Bride:
We wanted to keep things organic yet with a vintage feel in the outdoor garden setting. The flowers and table centerpieces played a big part, along with the long flowing ribbons we hung from the large oak trees. Lighting was key as well – we hung large glass chandeliers in the trees, bistro lights above the patio, and rustic barn lanterns were placed all through out. Alpine Event Rentals did an excellent job providing fresh and up-to-date lighting options in addition to their classy tables and chairs.
The cocktail tables had vintage hand blown glass bottles which held single stem flowers. Each table a little different. Florals consisted of ivory anemone with ink blue centers, peach parrot tulips, ivory peegee hydrangea, old fashion peach garden roses, tiny grey twigs and organic cotton branches etc. accented with votive candles. All flowers were loose and airy looking. Earthy vintage looking.

LOVE the veil, the setting & pretty much everything else : )
How did you do that photo collage? I love that idea and would love to do it for our wedding!
Yes! How did you make the collage? It's fantastic!
SAMCG--the photo collage was pretty simple. There are a lot of free photo-mosaic software packages online you can download. I used one called AndreaMosaic--you just upload your pics in a folder, pick the image that you want to be the basis of the mosaic, and how many pics you want to make up the collage and it creates it for you. We had it printed on canvas at a photo shop.
I'm doing it! I love it! Thank you!
P.S. I love everything else about your wedding too! Just beautiful!
How classy and beautiful. Especiallly her dress!
thank you so much for posting a wedding that is also part of the LDS tradition -- it's hard to find! this is a gorgeous wedding all around.
When I saw that first photo, I said "Oh my God" right out loud. That is everything I love all in one place.
Congratulations to the couple!
Just read the story. That is your grandmother's house? Will she adopt me? Those trees are magnificent. She must love her home.
Wow, the scenery in the first picture of the ceremony is beautiful...such a romantic place to get married! I love all the DIY details and hanging chandeliers.
Just in case anyone is wondering, although her dress is a Penelope, it is a copy of a beautiful Anne Barge gown that can be ordered from any salon carrying Anne Barge.
I was so excited to see this post, since I'm friends with the couple! I live in California far away from them and i'm so happy that I got to see their beautiful wedding photos!
