VENUE: ARTIFACT EVENTS | CATERING: COCINA FUSION | DECOR: FLOWERS FOR DREAMS | BAND: BLUEWATER KINGS

Literally two of the most perfect humans on the planet. We had such a good time with these two genuine, kind-hearted, organized people. We loved every minute of their day, from the sweetest first look, to the gorgeous ceremony, to the dance floor that was boppin’ all night. We just know these two are going to have the best lives together. They are surrounded by wonderful people, and they couldn’t be more wonderful themselves. One for the record books.

Congratulations, Courtney + Matt! We love you!
