“If you’ll be mine?” // Intimate Country Wedding
What an incredible day spent with the sweetest and cutest couple! Filming Kevin and Mikayla’s wedding was such a delightful experience. Having shot Kevin’s brother John’s wedding a few years ago, I already knew how close-knit and warm this family was, and that same loving energy filled their special day.
There were so many unforgettable moments, but one of the highlights was a hilarious skit by the bride’s sisters. They re-enacted Kevin and Mikayla’s first meeting, with each sister taking on one of the roles. From their initial introduction to their first pandemic-era dates, it was both heartwarming and funny to see them playfully capture the couple's journey while poking a little fun along the way. This could only be done by two sisters who know the couple very well.
The day was set against a beautiful countryside backdrop, just 45 minutes outside the city. The rural setting made the posing sessions with the couple effortless—they were so natural and comfortable in front of the camera. The wedding had a laid-back, intimate vibe, with outdoor games, heartfelt speeches, and a stunning ceremony in the open air. Later in the evening, the couple’s family and friends organized a shoe game to test how well Kevin and Mikayla knew each other, followed by various musical performances performed by some of their guests and many family members.
The night ended with a magical sparkler send-off, with nearly every guest joining in to light up the sky as the couple drove away, disappearing into the night. It was a perfect ending to a truly special evening, and I feel so lucky to have been a part of it. I wish Kevin and Mikayla all the best in their new life together!
