Surrounded by trees, loved ones, and laughter, this couple celebrated their love in the most meaningful way. Filled with joy, heartfelt moments, and unforgettable memories, their day was everything they had dreamed of and more...

How would you describe your wedding? 

"Our wedding was dream come true! Among the trees and all our loved ones, we couldn't have picked a better location to celebrate our love!"

What inspired your choice of wedding location, venue and overall vibe for your day? 

"As a little girl I've always wanted to have my wedding in trees and my wife made sure that happened! The Drive Thru Tree in Leggett CA was open and flat that the possibilities were endless. We were able to do anything we wanted! Not to mention the breathtaking spot where we took our wedding party photos and our wedding photos!!"

Looking back, what are the main moments from your wedding day that you'll remember forever?

"How nervous and emotional we were lol how we choreographed our first dance and killed it! How epic the entire day went and how beautiful we look together!!"

Were there any planning decisions or personal touches that made your day feel especially meaningful or unique to you as a couple? 

"Our vision was definitely brought to light by our event coordinator who is one of our dear friends. She made sure to make everything look absolutely stunning!! Putting our lost angels on a table for them to be with us and my wife's mom in a reserved chair the entire wedding. Being able to celebrate our passion and vulnerability for one another in front of everyone was beautiful all around."

What advice would you give to couples planning a wedding with a similar style or vision to yours? 

"We went for a boho theme in the trees. Just remember no matter if something wasn't exact or you didn't use everything you bought for it, you're there for one thing only and that's the love you have for one another. Cherish every little second you have in that moment because it will literally be over in a blink of an eye."

What made you decide to have a custom jacket created for your wedding day?

"We wanted a jean jacket for us to have, but to also have our baby have the same matching jean jacket. When we stumbled upon Beth Embroidery it was a no brainer. We wanted her company to design our forever jacket!"

What elements or details did you want to incorporate into your jacket design and why were they meaningful to you? 

"We wanted elegant flowers, forestry with mountains, our last name, our wedding date, and a bee and butterfly because they represent us!"

How did you find the process of designing and creating your personalised jacket? 

"The process was flawless! Beth was very attentive and very helpful in our design. She even added some flowers to fill in the gaps which made our jackets even more perfect!! Seriously thank you for making our jackets look amazing!!"
