Traditional Elegance, the Wedding of Jaimie & Nathan
Jaimie and Nathan said their vows in a simple yet traditional way, saying "I Do" in their family church. They chose not to see each other before the ceremony, but were able to share a quiet moment before the ceremony to connect and calm each other's nerves. The love was just shining in Nathan's eyes as his beautiful bride was escorted down the isle by her dad. Jaimie was simply a vision of perfection in her beautiful veil and gorgeous white gown with a flowing train. The groom was striking in his navy blue tux and their son, August, held his own with the groomsmen in his navy blue matching tux looking just as handsome as his dad! After the ceremony we met at an ethereal outdoor location for formal portraits with the wedding party. Surrounded by lush green grass, the creek and a forest of trees, the setting couldn't have been more perfect to frame this storybook couple. The celebration continued at the Dahl in downtown Rapid City, decorated with touches of blue, wine, silver and white lights, creating an elegant and romantic setting for their reception.
