A Dreamy Backyard Wedding in Leavenworth, Washington
An Intimate Wedding in the Heart of Leavenworth
Come dream along with me and reminisce on one of the sweetest, most down-to-earth weddings I’ve ever had the honor of photographing. D & B’s backyard wedding in Leavenworth, Washington was the perfect blend of adventure, intimacy, and heartfelt celebration.
A Ceremony on a Local Trail
When they first reached out to me about capturing their day, I was already sold. Leavenworth is one of those magical places that feels like stepping into a postcard, and I knew they were planning something special. But when D shared that the ceremony would take place on a local trail, followed by a backyard reception at their home, I could barely contain my excitement. Knowing how adventurous and deeply connected these two already were, I had no doubt this day would be unforgettable.
A Joyful and Love-Filled Morning
The morning of their wedding, I arrived at their home and was immediately swept into the beautiful chaos of celebration. Every friend and family member had a role and was joyfully stepping into it. From frosting cakes to stringing lights to sharing stories of D & B’s many adventures and accomplishments, the entire space buzzed with laughter, movement, and so much love.
Why Backyard Weddings Feel So Special
There was something incredibly grounding about the way the day unfolded. It didn’t feel rushed or overly produced. It felt like community. Like love rooted in real life. The kind of wedding where every detail was meaningful because it came from the hearts and hands of the people who love them most.
Dancing Beneath the Stars
Watching these two promise forever beneath the trees and then dance into the evening in their own backyard, surrounded by the people who helped shape their journey, was the kind of magic that stays with you long after the lights go out.
