Imagine being married on your own family land with perfect fall colors accenting the beautiful landscape. Radiant sunlight shone through the woods and reflected upon the babbling creek. It was indeed a stunning wedding day in Port Matilda, PA for the most deserving couple – Mr. and Mrs. Earnest! [Side note: coolest last name ever!]

I had the pleasure of meeting up with the bride, her family, and the most attentive coordinator the day before the wedding. Even though our meeting was short, I was immediately impressed with everyone’s thoughtful preparations. Abundant joy and love in the air! And add some DayQuil in the mix too. 😛

I adore the many ways in which Mr. and Mrs. Earnest personalized their ceremony – writing their own vows and performing the unity sand ceremony. Also, their uncle officiated the wedding!

Throughout the evening, I couldn’t help but aww out loud whenever Rowan and Aiden grabbed for their parents’ attention. Aiden is going to be such a heartthrob one day! 🙂

Toward the end of the night, we gathered around Mr. and Mrs. Earnest with sparklers in hand and the excitement builds with each new sparkler lit. The glow and happiness on their faces mirrored the shimmering light. What a picture perfect send off to our happy couple!

Allie & Ben – Congratulations!!! I am so excited for your new chapter. Thanks for having me there to witness and document such a blissfully beautiful beginning. And I totally listened to the “Beauty and the Beast” soundtrack while editing your photos! Haha.
