Cameron and Haley are officially MARRIED!!!! 🙂 We were blessed with mild weather and a little bit of rain for good luck, of course! 🙂 Fortunately, the rain came in quickly as we were finishing up photos outside. Although, we were a little nervous because thunder was close by as we were working through the family photos!!! We switched into high gear and finished everything before it was too much to be outside (WHEW!!). For their spring wedding day, they tied in peach and periwinkle colors into their details, which I thought was a beautiful spring palette! Look how well everything blended in this preview here!

Cameron and Haley’s families were so welcoming and friendly throughout the entire wedding day, which made the day so fun and relaxing. Speaking of fun, the reception had a fun little detail I was even surprised by! One of the groomsmen rapped for Cameron and Haley, which was entertaining! They ended the party with a balloon and bubbles exit, and it might be one of my favorite non-sparkler exit photos! 🙂 Check it out below!!

Thank you, Cameron and Haley, for the incredible honor!!! I feel like I know you all so well from our short time together and I couldn’t be happier!! You have a sweet and adorable family and are so great to Tristan. 🙂 He’s so blessed to have you both as his parents!! Congrats!!! Xoxo! Also, a huge thank you to Ajunero Photography for helping throughout the wedding day!!! 🙂
