Deep Creek Lake Wedding: Ryan & Tyler

Sometimes Brian and I talk about what kind of wedding we would have if we had to do it all over again. It would likely be at the lake, in the backyard of a big house and we’d celebrate in a semi-casual atmosphere with beautifully decorated picnic tables and our friends and family enjoying a warm sunset and easy honky-tonk.

In a way, that’s exactly what Ryan and Tyler’s wedding day was. 🙂

Ryan and Tyler’s wedding took place on a Friday evening during the last week of September and we could not have asked for better weather. Their outdoor, lakeside ceremony and romantic candle-lit reception both happened without a hitch because of the beautiful conditions, and the overall beauty of the event that their group put together. Their ceremony centerpiece and dinner tables were all handmade by Ryan and her sister, and they were perfectly paired with soft pink wedding colors. Their ceremony and reception featured participation from family members, including Tyler singing a song to Ryan before dinner. And if all of that wasn’t awesome enough, the evening ended with cotton candy colored skies and a hopping dance party on the big stone patio.

Ryan and Tyler, you had one of the prettiest lake weddings I’ve seen…thank you so much for inviting me to be a part of it! I hope you and all the kiddos are doing wonderfully! 🙂

Get ready for all the lakeside pretty, friends! Oh, and Ryan also wore a pink dress. 🙂

Ryan’s daughter helped her get ready…such a sweet time for them…

Definitely one of my favorites from the day!

I found Tyler secretly putting together his wedding day gift for Ryan…:)

I love some good guys-hanging-out-being-guys pictures on the wedding day. 🙂

Time for the ceremony! Drenched in warmth and sunshine, and sitting right along the shore…

And this is just something you won’t find at a every wedding. Tyler’s dad took an opportunity to hangout with his grandson in the beautiful, relaxing environment that is the lakefront…

Ah yes, a favorite!

I asked them to be hand models. 🙂

Tyler didn’t want to see Ryan until she was in the aisle…

Ryan and Tyler included a sand uniting ceremony to help signify their two families coming together. Tyler’s best man played the guitar and Ryan’s sister sang while they took turns pouring sand…and it almost made me cry…

One of my favorite moments to capture on a wedding day! YAY!

Dock pictures!!

Favorite, favorite, FAVORITE! 🙂

The sun peeking through the trees…perfect!

Time for the party! They decorated the stone patio and backyard so beautifully…

These tables looked stunning! I had imagined this type of scene for a wedding and hoped I would get to capture it someday. And it happened. 🙂 (Just wait until you see the evening scene with the candles lit…)

Tyler singing to Ryan…one of the sweetest reception moments!

And then a first dance…lakeside. Ah, it doesn’t get much better than this!

They even added pink uplighting to the house! What a perfect touch!

The cotton candy colored sky set in…

The perfect weather and the table set-up and these candles…it really just worked so well, and was such a romantic scene…

FaVORITE, of course. 🙂

They even brought Duck Donuts with them from the other side of the state. 🙂

Ryan and Tyler’s wedding was also featured on Marryland Weddings.

Scenes and thoughts from deep creek

Well hey now! I thought for sure it had been more than seven months since I blogged last! Wish I could do it more…and plan to as soon as the new JFP website comes out.

I’m not sure I’m starting anything consistent here, just sharing some random thoughts and scenes from Deep Creek on this random Wednesday…

Jessica is amazing and she made us feel so comfortable! Having her capture our wedding was like having my best friend with me for every moment! Jessica's photos are fun, whimsical, and sophisticated!

We are not a stoic couple and did not want posed (or trying-too-hard) photos! Jessica was able to capture our personalities and the elegance of the day! I can't stop looking at our photos!

"Jessica is amazing!"

The best decision I could have made for my wedding was hiring Jessica Fike as a photographer! I was in a wedding prior that she was a photographer for and seeing how organized and easy and strategic she was to work with is what convinced me! She makes you feel so comfortable and helps teach you how to pose and smile and look so natural! She keeps you on schedule throughout your day and captures so much emotion in her photos. She is worth every penny plus more!

" the best decision."

Big Fun
