film inspired vintage wedding: sam & adriana

sam  is a videographer and adriana a budding photographer, so you can only imagine the creative feast for the eyes their wedding was!  the natural beauty of the rustic property decorated by adriana and her team of crafting warriors culminated in a beautifully magical backdrop for what was truly a special day.

sam & adriana’s engagement picture session was my most popular post on this blog to date, so i was a little nervous about trying to “top” that with their wedding.  but there’s something about a wedding that evokes so much emotion and draws out so much pure love…looking back on these pictures, i “feel”.  which is all i can hope for.  i hope you see and feel the day right along with me, even if you weren’t able to be there in person.

recognize the movie poster sam is re-enacting below…?

though sam now makes movies himself, his love for the movies started at a young age where he attempted to smuggle himself along on a date night by hiding in the backseat of the car while his parents were getting ready to leave.  so it only made sense that the reception would revolve around the couple’s shared love for the movies, from the “ticket stub” seating chart to the outdoor theatre complete with candy and popcorn, no detail was forgotten.  there were so many personal touches as well, including hundreds of bundled love letters on each table that adriana’s grandparents had handwritten to one another dating back over 60 years.  it’s amazing to see the legacy of love and faith that both families have left for their children…what an incredible example for them to build their marriage on.
