Meadowlark 1939 Elopement

Melissa and Cody’s sweet and intimate Meadowlark 1939 elopement ceremony was incredibly romantic. An impeccable wedding planner herself, Melissa of G&A Weddings planned their wedding day to perfection. Melissa wore bridal pieces fit for a queen. She adorned herself with her favorite Bella Belle shoes, Olive & Piper earrings, her grandmother’s engagement ring, and a cape to match. She looked perfect!

Cody’s reaction to Melissa walking towards him was sweet and telling. He embraced her with a large smile on his face. I love a first look between a bride and groom, even on a wedding day with six people, because it allows my couples to spend more of their day together. Often, weddings fly by quickly. Seeing each other early in the day is a gift of more time together to take in each moment of the day their marriage begins.

MHB Paper created an English-inspired invitation suite with hand torn paper and gold filigree. She also include an envelope liner with a hand painted rendering of Meadowlark 1939. Cake Envy designed a beautiful cake with paper flowers that tasted as delicious as it looked. She is a genius with her wedding cakes.

Melissa and Cody, thank you for asking me to capture your spontaneous elopement at Meadowlark 1939! I’m so glad I could share in this exciting moment, and I can’t wait to celebrate again for your reception this Fall. Congratulations!
