Sweet and pure.

Jul
Just in case you weren’t aware (or are living under a rock), it’s hot here in the Midwest. Like uncomfortably, everyone melts, not even ice cream or a cold pool helps, hot. BUT, there is something so magical about the beautiful glow from a late sunset. It’s warm. And, dreamy. And, delicious. It’s everything that this engagement session from Benfield Photography is.
Sometimes DIY details can be a bit overwhelming – except when done right, of course. Jessica and Paul really took the time to make those DIY elements truly personal with homemade jelly favors for their guests, a quilt guestbook, and self-designed (and assembled) paper goods.

With their ceremony and reception held at Stables on the Hill, the natural elements really played a big part in the backdrop and decor. A horse-drawn carriage carried the bride in for the ceremony, wildflowers complimented the outdoor venue, and the couple planted a tree in honor of their making a new home together. Plus, they provided a little fun for the guests with a face painter – and yes, the adults even took part.

There is nothing sweeter than a truly honest and genuine couple. The love on their wedding day, and happiness is obviously clear throughout the entire day. From the tears to the joy. Katie Day did a fabulous job of capturing the spirit of this Arkansas wedding.
