a formal forest affair
“can we always be this close, forever & ever?”
– taylor swift
Susan + Danny may have tied the knot last summer during their sweet, intimate bayfront backyard ceremony, but there was certainly no lack of love at their big celebration this year! The couple perfectly paired the rustic feel of Running Deer Golf Club with a sleek, chic, and classic vibe throughout their day. From a tree planting ceremony among the timbers to woodland details juxtaposed with mixed metals, a vintage-inspired dress, and a little bit of glitz, not a detail was missed! Susan + Danny – I’m so happy you were able to ring in your first year of marriage with the epic party you originally planned. Cheers to many more hikes together on life’s beautiful journey!
