 This cute cabin is the Bridal Studio at Millcreek Barn!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anna had this tie tack made for her dad 🙂  They danced to that same song at the reception, and of course, I teared up.  Ever since having kids, I tear up at every Father/Daughter dance, and now every Mother/Son dance 🙂   (wait.. I’m tearing up now typing this and thinking about it… ok moving on!)

 

 Anna made her gorgeous bouquet (and did all of the flowers)!  She was an amazing DIY Bride!!

 

 Ummmmmmmmmmmm BEAUTIFUL!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Seeing each other beforehand….Erik taking deep breaths before seeing his beautiful bride…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 We had some fun with iPads.. (this first one was Anna and Erik’s idea!!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anna’s father made this Cross for the ceremony

Her grandfather’s Bible from 1941 was used for the ceremony reading – his parents gave it to him and it went to WWII with him.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Instead of a Unity Candle or Unity Sand, they planted a tree!  This is the first time that I have seen this, and I love it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Oh just some drawings.. of Erik’s ring… because ANNA MADE IT!!!  How awesome is that?!?!?!?!  😀
