ast week, Stephen and I celebrated AND photographed a very special wedding to us. My cousin Dina married the love of her life this past Saturday in BigFork Montana and we felt extremely honored to not only have witnessed the ceremony, but also had been able to photograph the wedding. 
 
Our family and a few friends stayed the week at my Aunt and Uncle's home in BigFork Montana. We spent the week preparing for the wedding and simply relaxing on the river. Dina and Tim arrived a few days before the wedding and I had some time to talk to Tim about the first time he met Dina. He told me the story of how he first saw Dina. He told me that the first time he layed his eyes on Dina he knew he was in love. After dating for a few years, Dina and Tim went their separate ways. As fate has it, they reunited years later to find that they truly had fallen in love and it was time to finally tie the knot.  
 
The wedding was intimate with only family and a few friends on the Swan River. After the ceremony took place, we wandered through the beautiful pine trees for a quick portrait session before dinner.  
 
Dina and Tim, we cannot be any happier for the both of you. You both are an extraodinary couple and I have no doubt God has many blessings in store for you. Hopefully many babies soon :) Dina, as your cousin, I feel so grateful to call you family. You are like a sister to me and it means so much to have documented your wedding day. I am so happy you have your true love and life only gets better from here. I love you.  
 
I am a bit obsessed with the flowers by Cara Finch at Mum's Flowers . She is an amazing florist in the WhiteFish area!
My Aunt Mary made Dina a broach bouquet with some new broaches and some old. If any brides are looking for someone to help create a bouquet for them, my Aunt Mary is the BEST!
Dina made her own wine labels and everyone at the wedding was given their own bottle of wine. mmmmmm!
Tim, you are so handsome!
Could this ceremony spot be ANY more perfect? Gorgeous.
I was salivating looking at the dessert table before the ceremony even took place. YUM!
I had to snap a photo of this little deer that kept coming back to the house for some juicy apples.
Maybe one of my favorite photos from the day. As my Uncle Mark announced Dina and Tim as husband and wife, I caught this adorable reaction from all of them.
I LOVED Dina's birdcage veil and her bolero from Anthropologie. Dina's something borrowed was my necklace that I also wore for my wedding! It was so special to see her wear it :)
The scenery ANYWHERE in Montana is stunning.
Dina, you are beautiful.
The sun peeked out right in time for some beautiful rim lighting.
After the portrait session, we headed back for a small intimate dinner. Congrats Dina and Tim! Love you both!
And last but not least, Winks wore a special outfit for the wedding.
