laurel + neil :: married

it was blue skies and sunny- the perfect day for a wedding. laurel + neil said their vows with nothing but smiles on their faces. they danced. they laughed. they played “the newlywed game” for all their guests. it was hilarious and once again only added to the personal touches that were so thoughtfully strung throughout the wedding. which reminds me…

she handmade all their details…with paper products. every delicate flower, bouteneirre, bouquet was made out of paper. such a simple, yet unique and beautiful idea.
