Curtis and Emily were married in the old Birch House deep within Glen Helen in Yellow Springs. It was secluded and intimate. And perfect.
It was the kind of wedding where we couldn’t tell who was family and who was friends because Curtis and Emily made everyone there feel so very important.
They’re a wonderful couple and we were more than honored to capture their whole day!
Curtis’s mama made Emily’s dress. Isn’t that amazing?
There were so many personal touches scattered throughout. Including the flowers, made from paper from the bride and groom.
The food from Christopher’s Catering had everyone hurrying back for seconds and thirds; and the baked goods reminded me of Gramma’s house circa 1988 (always a good thing.)
The ceremony took place on the front lawn and was sun-kissed and warm for mid-October. They had Ceremonies by Persephone direct the service, which she tailored around their personal story. It was beautiful.
There was so much laughter throughout the day — everyone was relaxed and excited all at once for the celebration! And Curtis makes goofy faces on the fly… so that helped, too.
Plenty of food and good conversation made for a great reception. Emily and Curtis were having so much fun, they didn’t even get to have a first dance!
Oh, there were some stories to tell… Grandma stole the show.
But all eyes were mostly on the happy couple.
That just about sums up the day. Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

You both are awesome. Thank you so much for the beautiful photos–you managed to capture that day just as I remember it. Couldn’t have asked for better photographers.
