Sparkling Love.

Mariah and Connor’s wedding in Three Forks had everything, it was one of those days that was packed with emotion, sparkle, and pure fun from start to finish.

Mariah did first looks with her mother and father, grandma, bridesmaids and made each one felt incredibly special. The bridal party brought such good energy all day long, and the bride even surprised the groomsmen with a good old-fashioned Smirnoff Ice “icing” moment that had everyone cracking up!

The bride and groom decided to do a first touch, where they exchanged their vows to each other around the doors of the beautiful barn.

The ceremony felt like a fairytale. Bubble machines were going as they walked down the aisle, and the arch was completely covered in fresh pink flowers that were just breathtaking.

One of my favorite memories from the day was tucking bobby pins into Mariah’s veil to help it stay in place, she was dancing while sipping water in between photos during that time. She was just glowing and so joyful living in every moment.

Mariah looked like a literal princess. She wore a tiara, had a dress covered in diamonds and it was totally her vibe. Even the welcome brochures (well, really glittery fan-style programs) were pink and shimmering and so true to her style.

Their first dance was the most beautiful that I’ve seen yet. It was clearly rehearsed and choreographed with so much love that the whole room was watching them. They also did an anniversary dance that brought tears to my eyes as there was a couple there that had been married for 60+ years. Later in the night they did a dollar dance that was so much fun and had everyone involved… even me!

Dinner was a build-your-own mac and cheese bar that was chef’s kiss delicious, filled with pulled pork and endless toppings. And for dessert, they had a gorgeous custom cake and cake pops for everyone to enjoy.

At the end of the night, I cried hugging Mariah. She was such a joy to work with from the very beginning, to the end. And get this, she loved the planning process so much that she’s now diving into the event industry herself.

I’m so proud of her and so grateful I got to be part of a day as vibrant, heartfelt, and fun as theirs.
