A sweet Montana wedding filled with personal touches + little rays of sunshine

According to family tradition, Shannon, the bride, will have plenty of luck in her marriage to Shafer as she placed a lucky sixpence in her shoe the day of the wedding. Their bright yellow and grey color palette added that extra pop of color to their smiling faces and laughter-filled wedding ceremony. Their wedding was so sweet with the inclusion of 15 children that carried golden balloons down the aisle. I just love seeing all the happy little faces - it's so sweet, especially when the bride and groom are right in the middle with all of them after the ceremony. As the photographer Kristine Paulsen wrote, "Shannon and Shafer are both early childhood special education teachers, so these little rays of sunshine walking down the aisle were especially meaningful to them as a couple." And, Kristine continues to explain . . . "There were many personal touches throughout their ceremony, including a Celtic hand-fastening ritual, which utilized cloth from both Shannon and Shafer’s childhood blankets, plus a new cloth to carry them into the future together. Toasts were hilarious and had everybody howling with laughter and this energy carried over into dancing, which was a mixture of beautiful, wild, wacky and fun!"
