Wedding: Matt & Alex | Weatherwood LLC, Montana | Columbia, Montana | Analisa Joy Photography

I am almost sad to be posting about this wedding because I have looked forward to seeing Matt and Alex’s gorgeous images on my screen each day. I enjoyed editing their special day because each photo seemed to be better than the next. This will go down as one of my all time favorite weddings ever. If I could throw together everything that I dreamed of shooting on a wedding day, these two managed to have it. Every detail was absolute perfection! Matt and Alex are college sweethearts who met in Montana and they decided to tie the knot back in the state that started it all. Their wedding day was a dream from start to finish and half of that is because of the love that these two share. It is very evident that they are the best of friends and that they are surrounded by so many loved ones. During their reception they thanked everyone who flew out to celebrate their big day and I loved that there were tables from all over the United States. Guests traveled from almost every coast because they did not want to miss watching these two say, “I do.” I have never been to Montana, but I quickly understood why people fall in love with this big open state. God’s creation is truly magnified and I was so thankful to be in the midst of it. It was a hard task, but I was finally able to narrow down my favorites and I posted them below. Congrats Matt and Alex!

In love with the Weatherwood LLC. Why can’t this venue be in California? It’s AMAZING!

Isn’t this the most beautiful bouquet?

In love with those robes!

Alex’s reaction to her groom’s gift was so sweet!

In love with this shot! She is the definition of bridal beauty!

How gorgeous are those bridesmaid dresses? I love the various shades of green!
Time to check in on the groom!

The groomsmen arrived to the ceremony on a red pickup truck.

Matt’s college roommate has a lot of titles.
He happens to be the best friend of both Matt and Alex, he was their matchmaker, and he was their officiant.

MARRIED!

This setting could not be more beautiful!!

A favorite of mine!

I love that she went barefoot on her wedding day! We could not have asked for a prettier golden hour.

I might frame this in my house! In LOVE!

What did I tell you about details perfection?!

One of my favorite details. Matt is from Jersey and Alex is from Louisiana. They had menus that represented the North and South.

So in California, I have so many clients in search of the perfect barn. Well, I found it and it’s in Montana. I’m willing to travel again.
When I walked into this barn my jaw dropped. Every decoration and detail looks like it came straight from a movie!
