Matt & Ashley // Evergreen, Colorado

What a wonderful wedding in the beautiful town of Evergreen, Colorado. Matt and Ashley's wedding was extraordinarily sentimental because their siblings married them and performed the ceremony. Their parents must be so happy to know how close their children are. I have never witnessed a ceremony so connected by the love of family.  As you can probably tell in the photos, there wasn't a dry eye on the lawn. The whole day, over and over again, I was completely blown away by the gentle, sweet way Ashley and Matt treat one another. It's not spurious or forced in any way. They naturally just want to make sure the other is well and so so happy. I saw this incredible kind of gentleness after Ashley put on her gown and hugged her mom with sweet tears rolling down her face. I saw it when Ashley opened her gift from Matt and proudly wore her new pearls on her wrist next to the bracelet her mother wore on her wedding day. I saw it in Matt's face when he excitedly donned a pair of polka dotted socks Ashley picked out for him.  Their sweet love was evident when Matt saw his stunning bride for the first time amidst the forest of Evergreen, when he picked up Ashley into the air so her shoes wouldn't get stuck in the ground, when they read their vows, and when they admired the handsome new ring on Matt's finger. This couple is just sweet to the core, and I am so happy to know that two people can be as kind and gentle as they are. Congratulations you two!
