Nikki and Justin’s Terrace167 wedding was filled with family, fun, and of course their adorable pups and cat!

Liz and Tony had the ultimate DIY wedding. Their venue was Tony’s family’s property and they did pretty much everything themselves. From putting up the draping and lanterns in the venue, to building the stage and arch for their ceremony. Liz even custom made toasting flutes for every single guest with their name etched onto the glass. Pretty much every detail you saw, these two made themselves and it was SO impressive seeing everything come together.

Devon and Andrew got married in a small ceremony several years ago… in a fake wedding with a bunch of children present. Their wedding rings were ring pops. I’m not sure they were even dating at the time – but it must have been fate because now these two are engaged. They’re preparing for their actual wedding and those same children (who are much older now) will be there to witness their wedding for real this time!

These two are both pharmacists and they met during their freshman year of college at Drake University. After dating across state lines (AJ was in Illinois while Tanya was in Wisconsin) for several years, these two finally bought their first home together in the spring – it made the perfect location for their intimate backyard wedding! Their day was SO special filled with family.
