Nestled among rolling hills, forests, and open prairies at Prevailing Winds Lodge, this neutral colored wedding is proof that it can be anything but boring. With hues of grey, taupe, white and lush organic greenery, to the beautiful laser cut chair signs and table numbers, this is the perfect mix of simple earthiness and gorgeousness. From the sweetest emotional moment of the groom when he first saw his bride to those golden light portraits captured by Emily Schmidt Photo, they are are nothing short of perfection. 

WEDDING DATE:  07/29/17 
 
HOW DID YOU MEET?  We went to high school together. 

HOW DID YOU KNOW HE WAS "THE ONE"? I knew he was the one when I could be my complete self in front of him and I could still tell he loved every part of me. 

TELL US ABOUT YOUR PROPOSAL:  We were in Florida visiting Nathan's family and we had a day planned to go to Disney, so Nathan proposed in front of the castle at Disney.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR DRESS: I loved that it had such pretty lace details and the little bit of sparkle on the straps. I loved how it fit me perfectly. 

DESCRIBE YOUR WEDDING FLOWERS: The flowers had gorgeous greenery mixed in with white and pale pink blooms. 

WERE THERE ANY PERSONAL TOUCHES OR DIY ELEMENTS?  My dad and I made the arch together, I painted the signs that we had out, we put together the treat bags at the tables that had M&M's in them, and I printed out the programs, chair reservation cards, and place cards.

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE MOMENT FROM YOUR WEDDING DAY? Our generator kept cutting out the music, but all our friends and family kept singing the song and dancing.
