Keilee + Eli's Burkesville Wedding

From the Bride: For me, the details are the hidden gems in a wedding. There were several things that made our wedding special. For starters, we got married on the 4th of July! Not many people can say that. Secondly, and perhaps my most favorite detail of the wedding was the flowers. They were not only beautiful, but also very special to me because my amazingly talented sister Keistan arranged them all with love and I am forever grateful for her commitment and hard work on our wedding day. The flowers included all of my favorites: peonies, ranunculus, dahlias, and anemones. Thirdly, we had a donut bar which is amazing because who doesn't love donuts? We also had an American flag backdrop for the groomsmen photos that was over 30 feet long! It was amazing for pictures and everyone loved it. We also took communion together during the ceremony which was special for both of us.

For me, my favorite wedding day moment was when we walked out of the chapel after the ceremony and talked with each other for the first time as husband and wife with no one else around. For my husband, he said his favorite wedding day moment was when we sat down at the reception together and saw all of our guests mingling and eating together.
