A DIY Chico Wedding: Mitch and Amanda

Amanda and Mitch are down to earth people. The kind of people who think of others first. They have known each other for years and together, watched many of their siblings and close friends get married: Unsure when their turn may come. This last fall, Mitch totally surprised Amanda by asking her to marry him while they were visiting friends near Seattle. Amanda was so excited! And together, they started planning a fun wedding, centered around the people that mean so much to them.

And you could tell, people love them. The wedding day was about the people. It was about celebrating and enjoying each moment, as it unfolded. Their were so many details, most of them handmade by Amanda that gave the day a very personal feeling.

And we were honored to capture that. We loved seeing how happy Mitch and Amanda are; how much they adore each other. We loved capturing their friends and family. And at the end of the day, we know we are blessed to be a part of another really special wedding day.

Congratulations Mitch and Amanda. So excited for what lies ahead. You are wonderful, wonderful people.

Much Love, K and K

And let's just say, wearing a pair of TOMS on your wedding day -- now, that's a good start to a long day :)

Mitch gave Amanda this gift before the ceremony...

The details that were put into the ceremony were brilliant. The flower work designed by Pam at Cambray Rose Florist.

Love this shot of the flower girls.

Married...

Amanda had been working on the details for months. Seriously, so much of the details were handmade by Amanda.

We took a few more photos right before the party began :)

Loved the toasts and first dance... Definitely a tear running down her cheek...

Such a fun party!

Many thanks to the Palms Venue for providing the backdrop for this wedding day.
