A Summer Weekend Wedding


When you think of a wedding you generally think of white dress, walking down a short aisle, an often stressful one day event. This was far from the case with Isabel and Dan who chose to celebrate their union by creating an entire wedding weekend filled with laughter, games, and camping with their closest family and friends.


Isabel and Dan got married at Green Mountain Camp in Dummerston, Vermont, on a beautiful summer day in June in 2019. They wanted to have an ultimate wedding weekend with all their wedding guests and came all the way from Texas to get married in the serene woods of Vermont.


To start their celebration we took engagement photos the evening before their wedding in a field just up from the campground. This was followed by a delicious barbecue camping style rehearsal dinner.


The following photos are of I & D's Engagement, the Field Day, the Rehearsal Dinner and BBQ, the Ceremony, the Newly Weds, and Dinner and Dancing. I think not much else needs to be said as looking at these photos will tell you just how joyous of a weekend it truly was.
