Earthy and Hippie Backyard Wedding

From Victoria Selman Photographer: “Kevin gazed at Courtney as she walked barefoot down the aisle in a vintage 1960s gown down the front yard of her childhood home that her dad built when he was 26. When she hugged her dad and turned around, Kevin whispered to her, ‘You’re perfect.’ Every single piece of Courtney and Kevin’s wedding was so intentionally planned, right down to the wooden ring box of collected memories from their 4 years together – handwritten notes, plane tickets, newspaper cutouts, loving cards, you name it. And literally don’t get me started about how Pickles their weiner dog (best man) ran around the yard in a blue bowtie all day. This wedding should basically be titled The Chronicles of Pickles on His Humans’ Wedding Day. Seriously these earthy, hippie wedding vibes are everything.”
