These are a few of my favorite things:

Their Spirit of Adventure Woven In

Bella + Jakob love to ski and they brought this into their day by having pictures of themselves at various ski resorts on each of the guest tables...cheesin' at 12 different resorts! As guests arrived, they grabbed their "lift tickets" to indicate which table they would be sitting at. It was such a special way to weave their spirit of outdoor adventure into the day. The couple also prioritized getting professional photos setting up their tent in their complete wedding attire. After the party, the couple camped at Kendall Mountain with their closest family and friends.

Running Towards Forever

Bella + Jakob were so clearly in love! This was evident in so many special moments throughout the day including Jakob surprising Bella with a necklace while she was getting ready AND even a special first dance song. One of the most tear-jerking moments of the day was their first look. Bella ran towards Jakob with so much joy, it was overflowing.

A Party on the Dance Floor

Bella + Jakob's crew knew how to have fun on the dance floor! The couple kicked things off with a dual first dance with Bella and her dad AND Jakob and his mom. Then, the dance floor immediately exploded with portable disco lights, pink blow up ponies and glow sticks. A blow up banana and hot dog even made an appearance. At one point, Bella + Jakob and their families and friends were all sitting in a line in pairs doing a choreographed dance to "Fishing in the Dark." Pure party.
