We are so excited to share Jen and John's beautiful outdoor wedding today. Not only is this wedding beautiful, but I love how Jen and John made each detail so special to them - they made their “big party” so personable and special for every guest. Some of my favorite moments from getting ready and the ceremony? The first look with Jen’s father and the special “Maid of Honor” and “Best Man.” Join us tomorrow for details from their reception and the fully gallery!

So while we work on refining all of these wonderful plans, we are over the moon to share some of your favorite moments on the online journal since our launch, just a few short months ago! Starting at the very beginning, engagement inspiration, today we are sharing our most clicked, pinned and liked inspiration from proposal stories, engagement sessions and inspiration for capturing this exciting season! Are any of these moments your favorite?

A personal note from Katie: To live a life worthy of an elegant legacy, means to live a life in grace. And in creating that legacy, some days will require more grace than others. The hard, difficult days that cloud the skies and perhaps your heart may span beyond a few pages and may consume a few chapters of your life. Those chapters, are still part of your legacy.

Originally our wedding design was going to be very soft and elegant with lots of blush pink. With the change in venue, we went with something more relaxed, natural and colorful. I love a big, colorful bouquet full of garden roses and different flowers. I felt like the colors and greenery complimented our the dessert and natural surroundings. The inspiration for my bouquet was actually from one of your photo shoots. I just fell in love with it! Also, for the relaxed feel we went with a blue suit with no tie for Jim.

Katie and Nathan's day was filled with thoughtful details inspired by the colour palette of Nita Lake and it's surroundings. Bringing the outdoors in, tables were adorned in foraged greenery, moss and gorgeous florals. The bride's lace gown paired with the flowing blush bridesmaids gowns, and the groomsmen's dapper grey suits.

Yesterday, we shared with you the portraits from Silver Cup Artist Alison of Juniper Designs' beautiful Generation shoot, and today, we are sharing the details, video (above) and link to full gallery of images captured by Amanda Watson Photography.
