Silver Lake Lodge at Deer Valley Wedding: Chelsea + David

It was going to be the Best Day Ever.

From the moment David proposed to Chelsea and the wedding planning began, that was their motto. As she tried on dresses and he was fitted for his suit, as the colors were chosen and flowers discussed, as they tasted the food and picked out the wines, everything was meticulously planned to create the most amazing day they could imagine.

When the day finally came, all the last details fell perfectly into place. As the dress was buttoned and her soft curls fell gently on her shoulders, Chelsea’s smile could not have shone brighter. As the sun glinted from above and Chelsea walked down the aisle, David’s eyes could not have been filled with more love. They laughed and hugged and celebrated with their guests. They ate cake before because life is too short to not eat dessert first. They toasted to their loved ones with so much thanks for all the help in creating their wedding day. And of course they danced. They danced, and dance, and then danced some more, until sun was gone and the moon and stars sparkled in the night sky, and the band called last song…

It was the Best Day Ever.

Married: Chelsea + David

This wedding took place on a gorgeous day in June up in the mountains of Deer Valley. Chelsea and David worked very hard to add lots of personal touches and enjoyable elements to their day, and it totally showed! My personal favorite was the place cards… they wrote a different fun, quirky, or sentimental movie quote for every single guest! Well, that and the fact that they ate dessert first ;) Chels and David, thank you so much for giving me the privilege of documenting your wedding!! I can’t tell you how awesome it was to be a part of a such a meaningful and heartfelt celebration. It’s an honor to share an anniversary with you! Seriously the best day ever :) I hope that you guy had an absolutely incredible time on your honeymoon!! XO
