Hillary and Matt’s outdoor wedding in Lake Ozark, MO was just our style… an intimate backyard gathering of close family and friends, unique handmade details, and tons of gorgeous natural light for photography! With antique lace tablecloths, handpicked wildflower centerpieces, and vintage suitcases, this wedding felt like something out of an Anthropologie catalogue. The day also had a twist–guests thought they were invited to a wedding reception, as everyone thought these two had already tied the knot on an island… but surprise! They decided to have the official ceremony with everyone present at the party to hear their first “I do’s”. Family and friends were overjoyed!

Hillary and Matt had a travel themed wedding, which is fitting, as they are currently living in St. Maarten in the Caribbean fixing up (and living on!) a boat they hope to sail in the spring. I absolutely loved their idea for a “guest book” where they had people leaves messages in a bottle, that they would shatter and read one year later!
