Ryan & Sarah were the most precious couple. Their wedding day was simply beautiful and I loved the country setting and vintage feel of the day, but most of all I loved seeing the LOVE that Ryan & Sarah share. It was evident throughout this amazing celebration that they have a love that is strong, contagious and they were surrounded by loving parents, grandparents & friends. It was indeed a day filled with Love, Laughter, Happy Tears and most of all JOY!
Ryan & Sarah actually met each other through a mutual friend and it seems that Ryan had to pursue Sarah for a little while before she finally agreed to go out with him. LOL! But, she finally did give in and go out with him and I am pretty sure that went well, because they have been creating their love story ever since. Last Saturday they started a new chapter as Man and Wife and now get to spend a lifetime together creating a wonderful life filled with amazing memories along the way.
Here is a glimpse into their perfect day!!
I loved all the beautiful details of the day, but I especially loved the display of photos of Ryan & Sarah that were pinned to shutters. This made a perfect backdrop and I know everyone loved seeing all the fun photos of this adorable couple.
Oh my goodness... isn't Sarah beautiful! I love her big beautiful eyes and her dress was simply gorgeous.
Something old, something new, Something borrowed, something blue
(something old & borrowed) Sarah's Bouquet was a surprise for her from her parent's and was hand made just for her, and the entire bouquet was made with brooches. Many of the brooches were from Sarah's Great Grandmother and some of them were from her Mother. The bouquet had several photo charms hanging around the base of it, so that when Sarah held the bouquet the charms dangled and were showcased. Each of these were filled with special family members that have passed away on both Sarah and Ryan's side of the family. Amazing!! It was indeed the most beautiful bouquet that I have ever seen and I for one will remember this for my own daughter's wedding one day.
(something new) Sarah's Shoes were another surprise to her and these were custom painted and included Ryan & Sarah's name among other important little details throughout the shoe design.
(something blue) Sarah's Mom also had a blue James Avery Charm attached to the garter that Sarah was going to wear in the wedding as a surprise for Sarah too. Now she can always wear her something blue on her charm bracelet for years to come. Love that!
Awww... the Bridal Party! They were so much fun and you could tell that they all have an amazing friendship with each other which made the day that much sweeter.
Family is priceless and I loved seeing the love, support and encouragement that both Ryan & Sarah's families showed that day towards their children. Many many amazing moments between them were captured and I hope that they cherish the memories of these moments forever!
The ceremony was filled with many wonderful tender moments. I loved the Ring Bearer and Flower Girl, they were adorable and the sign that Ryan's nephew carried was simply precious.
One of my favorite images from the ceremony is this one of Ryan and Sarah lighting the unity candle and the flame burning bright. Just LOVE it!
The dances were filled with tender moments and a little fun all mixed together.
and... the BIG send off! Ryan and Sarah were sprinkled (ok maybe tossed) with birdseed as they walked through a loving tunnell filled with many friends & family wishing them well. and... the BIG send off!

The photo in the middle of this last set of images is of Ryan holding Sarah and Sarah holding a sign that says "Jen Se Vzali" which is Czech for "JUST MARRIED" Ryan's grandfather "Stanley A Liska" is Czech and this adorable sign was another unique surprise for them.
