What was the Inspiration for your wedding day?
Rustic, chill vibes, casual
How and why did you pick your venue and or wedding details:
We loved that we could have a good portion of our guests can stay right there at Noon Lodge and that we could have our Welcome BBQ and coffee mornings around the fireplace there. We loved the look and feel of the cabins room & the firepits outside.
What special details did you include in your wedding or reception??
Beer wall/bar
How did you make your wedding day special and make it about the two of you??!
We wanted a relaxed woodsy venue with chill vibes. We included specific music we love, drinks we love (beer, wine and margaritas), created a camp type atmosphere in which people could hang around the firepits after the reception/dancing.
Most memorable moment (s) of your wedding day?
Groom: First look, seeing bride walking down aisle, being with all our closest family & friends all weekend,
Bride: Walking down the aisle to my groom! First dance and having that “alone” time with just the two of us dancing.
What was your favorite part about the wedding planning process?
Being able to design what we wanted, putting all the pieces together how we wanted it to be,
Any advice for those planning now?
Make sure your wedding day/weekend is what you want not others. Be in the moment on your day, take it all in.
