And, her dad.

Kira’s maternal grandma was her flower girl… and grandpa, the ring bearer.

Kira and Zach took a moment for each other and exchanged little notes.

Lavender throwing… I wish I could capture the smell. It was divine!

I cannot say enough about ‘sweetheart tables.’ Love them! And this one was wonderfully decorated.

There were few speeches. Bride’s father had a small gift for the newlyweds.

Radisson Paper Valley wedding - Appleton, WI - Kelsey & Kody

Kelsey and Kody's wedding day was definitely a family oriented celebration. A good number of the bridesmaids and groomsmen were Kelsey's sisters and brothers (she's one of seven siblings!), and Kody and Kelsey's daughter was the most adorable, well behaved flower girl! A cousin, nephews, and many great friends made up the rest of this fun loving bridal party. A perfect complement to the fun loving couple.

Bridal details...

Kelsey and Kody took a moment for each other ❤

The majority of after-ceremony photos were taken at the Bubolz Nature Preserve

We grabbed one more reflected shot at the limo :)

The reception...

Father/daughter dance can be so touching, especially, when the mom is watching it. 

Trying to catch the few sparkles, we snuck out for a few pics right outside the Raddison Paper Valley hotel. 

Thank you Kody and Kelsey for making me a part of your wedding day! It's been fun!!
