A Rustic Backyard Wedding

These two were married on October 15th, 2016 on the sweet southern porch of Shelley’s parents home here in my home town Halifax, Virginia.

I have so many sweet things I can say about Shelley and Eli. Y’all, I am not even kidding you guys and I promise anyone you ask around here that knows them will absolutely say the same. These two are absolutely PRECIOUS together. During their engagement session (you can find that here) I learned PRETTY quickly that Eli is the quiet one. So funny!!! But Shelley on the other hand is anything but that. They really bring out the best in each other.

All throughout their planning Shelley had so many lovely details. All rustic because, well, that’s true to both of their roots. When she told me they would be getting married at her parent’s house on their porch…my hear was SO warm and fuzzy!!! I mean, how seriously how meaningful is that!? And I KNOW her parents were more than happy to make it all happen for her too.

The day unfolded quite nicely. All of the details came together beautifully and I just LOVED her colors!!! I mean, you can’t go wrong with that gorgeous burgundy/cranberry color she chose. With lots of pumpkins and sunflowers here and there, these two said their vows and became husband and wife. Without a DOUBT I know that was the part they were quite honestly the MOST excited about the entire day. Becoming one.
