Millie&#8217;s dress was made by her mother, using the skirt from Millie&#8217;s grandmother&#8217;s own wedding dress. (Millie&#8217;s mother used the skirt for her wedding, too!) The groomsmen added a bit of playfulness to what would have been traditional pocket squares, instead opting for fun &#8220;fair ribbons&#8221; saying: first place, second place, third place and participant. Hilarious! The amazing cupcake sculpture (it can only be called a sculpture because it was truly a work of art) was created by Millie&#8217;s father, and the cupcakes were made by Millie&#8217;s mother. Absolutely stunning!<\/p>\n<p>Such a special day, full of so much love, put forth by wonderful friends, family and the couple themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks so much for having me photograph your day, Millie and JD!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kristinepaulsenphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/Great-Falls-Montana-Wedding-Photographer_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
