Romantic And Rustic Wedding
Danielle and Rob are the most stunning couple. More than that, their relationship with each other, and their family and friends is incredible to witness in this romantic and rustic wedding! The day was full of gorgeous blush tones, lots of candles, an intimate ceremony in front an outdoor fireplace followed by a reception under the stars.
The coordination was provided by Tawnee, from Urban Shindigs, and to add to the beauty Danielle and her hubby made some rad DIY projects. Check out the palette beer bar! Get an up close look at all of the details in the full gallery here, captured by Brianna Venzke Photography.
First Look To Calm Nerves
What was your favorite moment of your wedding day? All the emotions I had before I stepped out and saw Rob for our first look. Here is a man I have been dating for over 7 years and the butterflies I felt were incredible. I knew this was going to be a moment I will never forget! We both had tears of joy! At first we were opposed to a first look because we wanted to savor the real emotions for the moment we saw each other as I walked towards him during the ceremony. However, with the nerves and how quickly everything happens, we decided it would be nice to see each other beforehand have a quiet happy moment together to talk and get a kiss or two in!
advice: hire a videographer
Any advice for Future Brides and Grooms? Enjoy every moment – I know people say the wedding flies by sooooooo fast, and it does, but every once in a while stop and take a look around and just really let everything sink in!! I remember almost every detail from our ceremony because I really absorbed the beautiful moment that was taking place! Oh and on that note, hire a videographer!!! This is the one thing most people say they regret!! It is a beautiful thing to watch it over and over again! We cannot wait for our children to be able to share in the joy with us one day!
first dance & first song
What was your favorite memory of the wedding day? Oh goodness where how do I pick just one?! I would have to say my favorite memory from our wedding day was our first dance. I had been looking forward to that moment during our whole engagement – from picking the perfect song that spoke to the both of us to actually holding each other in that much awaited moment. I always wondered what the happy newly married couple talks about when they are dancing – Now I know!! Even though all eyes were on us, it felt like it was just him and I in that moment, I didn’t want it to end. What Song did you choose for your first dance and why? Cinema – Jason Evigan – This song makes me melt! It’s incredibly beautiful. I played it for Rob and he instantly loved it as well.
self-serve beer bar
What was your favorite detail of the wedding day? Our self-serve beer bar! How awesome was that!! My dad and Rob need to go into a wood working business. It was awesome to be able to create one of a kind unique pieces for our wedding day. We put a lot of time and work into our DIY projects and seeing our guests enjoy them just as much we did was the best feeling.
