Vintage Baseball Themed Wedding with orange accents . . . Batter Up

Today's wedding is amazingly unique and super special for the couple which I just LOVE. The bride and groom are baseball lovers and as their photographer of Dana Widman Photography writes, "fell in love at the diamonds... baseball that is!". Don't you just love that? After all, a wedding should be about reflecting a couples personality and style, right? The small town couple, Lisa and JJ, put a spin on the "traditional" wedding photos after the ceremony and took their wedding party {or shall I say teams} out to the baseball field to capture real energy, spirit and joy. The wedding took place in Perham, Minnesota with a super fun and low-key day filled with orange accents {as orange is the color of the local baseball team}.

A Modern Minnesota Destination Wedding in Pink and Purple

Today's amazingly gorgeous wedding was photographed by Kristen Weaver Photography. The bride, Marja, was adopted as a child into a Danish family. And, the groom Scott, hails from a traditional Jewish family. The two met over 5 years ago at Rochester Institute of Technology when Marja started college. After Scott proposed under the stars in the Caribbean, they started planning their destination wedding in Minneapolis. This wedding was super special as both Marja, Scott and over half the wedding party was deaf. Tradition was still incorporated into their their ceremony and when they signed their vows, they brought in translators to help interpret. As Kristen says . . . "It was so sentimental and meaningful to see their connection!"

Real Wedding : a gorgeous mountaintop wedding with wildflowers

I'm in love with today's wedding I get to share with you. Personally, I think if you are able to, there's nothing better than having nature as the beautiful backdrop for your wedding. Just check out the scenic landscape in the background for the wedding of Ben and Melissa in Missoula, MT, photographed by Brett and Julie of Birdsong Photography. It's breathtakingly gorgeous. I love how Brett describes the wedding location, "It's one of the coolest, hip little middle of nowhere towns I've ever been to. I try to go at least once a year, and I don't want to leave whenever I do go. Best coffee, best food, prettiest scenery."

Thanky you so much Brett and Julie for sharing the beautiful wedding of Ben and Melissa with my readers today. To see more photos, please visit the web site of Birdsong Photography, along with Brett's blog.
