This wedding may have been considered a destination wedding for some— because family and friends traveled from all over (the furthest I think was Alaska!?) Did you know Newton could be so exciting!? ;) Kora’s and Matt’s families were overjoyed to join their children in marriage, and there were SO many happy tears throughout the day.

I hope you enjoy viewing one of the most heartfelt weddings I have had the joy to capture so far this year. It is only March. ;) Congratulations to Kora & Matt!

We headed into town for our first look! Matt & Kora wrote letters to each other and read them separately before seeing each other for the first time. It was so sweet. Tears may have been shed. ;)
