The morning began with quiet moments, excitement, and the anticipation of the  day ahead. We started the day with cappuccinos in a nearby town and enjoyed a slow, meaningful morning as we prepared for one of the biggest moments of our lives. Shelby chose to do her own hair and makeup, making the experience even more personal, while a local Italian florist hand created the beautiful bouquet she carried.

One of our favorite moments was Mitchell helping button up Shelby's dress and Shelby tying Mitchell's tie; a simple but unforgettable reminder of the love and support we share. We also shared a fun fake "first look," capturing the excitement and emotion of seeing each other before the ceremony. After getting ready, we took time to capture bridal portraits and soak in the beauty of the day before beginning our celebration.
