Let us tell you, this bride and groom have it all figured it out – they know how to plan a gorgeous and intimate wedding that so eloquently told their love story, and amazingly {and most importantly} they understand what life is all about – love. And the crazy, unpredictable and beautiful ride that love takes us on. Enjoy a peak into Sara and Jed’s love story today, thanks to amazing photography by IN Photography.
One of my favorite moments would probably have to be hearing the vows that Jed had prepared for our ceremony. They were so beautiful, poetic, incredibly deep, and funny.. I had no idea that he was able to write like that! I also loved the few minutes right before our Planner came in and said “okay, it’s time!” We had our favorite songs turned up in the bridal cottage and my bridesmaids, nieces and I started spontaneously dancing! It was our own ‘pre-game’ pump up session! And then there was my Sister’s Matron of Honor speech sung to the tune of Taylor Swift’s Love Story.. amazing!
Jed and I are both avid mountain bikers. Mountain biking together was actually our very first date! So we really wanted to incorporate bikes into our wedding, but I wanted to make sure that our use of them was still classy and tasteful. The place card display idea came out of a decoration that my parents created for our Engagement Party {image inspiration here}. Stay tuned TOMORROW because we have the DIY details on how to re-create the Red Cruiser Bike Escort Card Display.
The table numbers were another way that we decided to incorporate our passion for biking in to the day. We’ve biked on a lot of trails together and have taken many a photo among all these trails, so we named the tables after some of the trails we have ridden. The front was kept clean with the table name and number and the back afforded a fun story and photo of us on that trail. Jed and I spent A LOT of time writing up the story for each of those tables that explained where the trail was located, why we loved it, or some fun memory made while riding that trail.
Additional fave details were glow sticks on the dance floor, and late night surprise of lemoncello icees served in mini glass milk bottles. People went NUTS for the glow sticks and were making jump ropes, suspenders, and who knows what else out of them. They were a LOT of fun!
