Mike and Calli’s Moorhead Backyard Wedding

Mike and Calli were married at the home of a family friend this past Saturday.
Their wedding day, originally planned for September 2014, was moved up spontaneously to avoid the stress of planning for a whole year.
And good for them! Their day was beautiful, heartfelt, romantic and joyful in every possible way.
I’m officially in love with backyard weddings!

The Real Bridesmaids of Moorhead?

I kinda have a MAJOR THING for neighborhoods.
They are just so…friendly!
This image of the groomsmen skipping down a normal street…perfection, in my eyes.

After a rainy, drippy 12 hours, the sun and blue sky started peeking through.
Right in time for their outdoor, backyard ceremony!

A beautiful foot washing ceremony:

Prayers of blessing…

And then, MARRIED!!!!

How special to get EVERYONE at your wedding ceremony in one photo?

Hugs for Grandma…

The wedding party tried to keep them on solid ground, but love gives wings, you know…

Ooooh, I love that photo! 🙂
After the wedding party left, we had a delicious amount of time for bride and groom portraits.

This beautiful oak tree with a swing appeared out of nowhere,
And I wondered, what did I do to get so lucky?!
