Rustic Country Themed Wedding {Kelly Farm, Buckley, WA}

What a whirlwind of sweetness!  I was so thrilled to be asked by Brad and Nayeli to capture their wedding celebration at an amazing new venue–The Kelly Farm.  Located in Buckley, it was tucked just off the road to Crystal Mountain, a route I know well…  As this ridiculous summer weather rolls on day after sun filled day, we were fortunate to find a bit of shade, perfect for portraits.  Brad was the smiliest groom I have ever seen, and it only grew wider and more twinkly every time he caught a glance of his perfect bride.  Nayeli was truly radiant–surrounded by her lovely friends and family, she eased through the day with complete grace.  I love calm and happy bridal parties!  As she emerged from the Bridal cottage with her Father, the mariachi band sounds lifted into the country evening.  I was on sensory overload with the beautiful floral designs, the rustic handmade touches, topped of with Brad’s family ranch brand burned into log rounds atop each table, perfect.  The couple and their family danced on into the night with unabashed happiness and vigor, which may or may not have been fueled by tequila… my kind of party!  Congratulations Brad and Nayeli!! The best of times are still ahead, and I’m pretty sure you’ll know how to manage… : )

A Little Bit Country {Rustic Farm Wedding, Elma, WA}

Am I dating myself with the Donnie & Marie song reference?  Probably.

Following a dramatic lightening storm, the clouds parted, the rain abated, and the sun shone widely on the Smith Family farm as Heather and Michael said “I Do.”

Heather had the most meticulously planned details, I just LOVED the handmade signs and the burlap covered hay bale seated ceremony site, complete with birch trees lining the aisle and creating an entrance.  Perfection!

Everywhere you turned were more adorable touches.  It was such a perfect day…weather, food, locale and people–what more could you ask for? Congrats you two, thank you for allowing me to capture your day!!
