Mariah and Justin’s boho wedding was one of a kind. Every little detail was unique in its own way.
Mariah and Justins wedding started out with so much excitement. By the time of my arrival, Justin joked he had already had a pot of coffee. You could see the anticipation on his face. He was all smiles as he waited for the ceremony to start.
My favorite part of the day was when Mariah helped prepare her mom for the wedding. You could see her holding back tears as she smiled at her beautiful mother; such a genuine moment.
Mariah’s necklace is her ‘something borrowed’ which is her sister’s set of pearls that their mother bought her as a teen. Her wedding dress was even handpicked with her bridal party. Her flowers were made by Bessies Florals and they went above and beyond!
The wedding went seamlessly as everyone celebrated their love together. The Tamarack provided a beautiful backdrop for all the photos.
Gail at Mia Bell Originals was the master behind this incredible design. I am always amazed at how she can take Brides’ dream designs and make them magical! The thoughtfulness behind this design shows in each and every photo.
I hope you enjoy<3
