The Brunnhoelzl Wedding

Sierra and Beau Brunnhoelzl || Grouse Ridge Shooting Range ||  #foreverbs17

You know its going to be a fun wedding when one of the couple’s favorite things about themselves is that their initials together make “BS”.

The wedding was held at Grouse Ridge Shooting Range, which happens to belong to Beau’s Parents! It was the perfect venue for them.

We got there a bit before everyone was ready, so we took a minute to take a few photos of some of the decorations.

Beau’s Best Man, Joby Cracks me up! Especially that middle picture… I laughed and laughed when I saw it while editing.

Up the hill, Sierra was almost ready. Her mom helped her put her awesome wedge shoes on

  ^And seeing Sierra in her wedding dress made a bridesmaid cry.

It was one of those rare days… where even an Alaskan girl could get a tan in that bright sunlight.

And then Beau came out with his mom.  She made this expression to her husband waiting for her in the front row. I can just hear her thinking: our son is getting married!

Beau and Sierra’s friend John performed the ceremony, so he got to sign the license…. when he did he put the wrong date!  I love everyone’s expressions while they figure out what to do.
