This past Sunday, Tassie and TJ tied the knot in Polson, Montana. It was so special to be a part of their day. Tassie is my husband’s cousin and has always been such a good friend to me. The preparations started at the salon and the girls finished getting ready at Tassie’s aunt’s place – who happens to be my mother-in-law :). This may be my favorite picture I’ve taken in a while: No kidding, this image is from their first look. Completely candid. And yes, I cried during their first look. It was so touching. The cute couple pre-ceremony: And the whole crew. What a handsome bridal party!

They pretty much made my heart melt during the ceremony:

The priest who married Tassie’s parents said a special blessing for their rings:I thought it was really great how they intentionally only put the ring on each other’s finger half-way, allowing the other person to put it on all the way as a symbol of their mutual commitment to each other.

After the ceremony we made a pit-stop at a local burger place called Richwines Burgerville (my favorite burger place). Smart couple as the bride and groom rarely get a chance to eat at the reception.

They did it!

The reception was beautiful in true Montana style. TJ & TJ, I hope you are having so much fun on your honeymoon. Love you!
