Sarah and\u00a0Matt truly had the definition of a perfect wedding at the Barn at Finley Point in Polson Montana. It wasn’t too hot, nor too cold; they got to visit some of their favorite places on earth whilst enjoying their wedding day (Sarah grew up visiting her grandparents’ place on Flathead Lake, which is just a hop and a skip away from the Barn at Finley Point); and they enjoyed it all with the people closest to them.<\/p>\n

Their day started out with their first look in Ronan by a favorite barn of Sarah and Matt’s – and some “bushwhacking” through fields (we had permission, don’t worry!), which ended up being pretty memorable (I think most of us had wheat kernels in our shoes by the end of our trek!), and stunningly beautiful. (Can’t beat the gorgeous Mission Mountains set off perfectly by a beaming couple!)<\/p>\n

Soon it was time for Sarah and Matt to walk down the aisle and say their “I Do’s.” Willow leaves and a pond framed their ceremony, and friends and family smiled and laughed along with Sarah and Matt as they spoke their vows to one another. They kissed to a chorus of cheers and walked down the aisle again, this time as beaming newlyweds.<\/p>\n

Not long after they sealed it all with a kiss, we bopped on over to Sarah’s grandparents’ place on the lake to make some images at one of her favorite places – and they were both brave enough to jump into a canoe and paddle out onto the lake a bit. Worth it!<\/p>\n

We rejoined everyone at the barn for a tasty dinner, some heartfelt toasts, an abundance of donuts and candy, some fantastic dancing, and fun photobooth shenanigans.<\/p>\n

Soon, the sun slid behind the clouds, leaving the warm light of the dance floor and peals of laughter spilling out into the dark Montana night.<\/p>\n

Sarah and Matt! What an amazing day for you two! I just loved every second of your wedding, and had such a wonderful time photographing such a special day for you both. Your friends and family are the sweetest, as are you two, and it’s a complete understatement to say that I wish you all the best this world has to offer! And here’s to being back in Montana again soon! :)<\/p>\n
