Manti Backyard Wedding | Bigelow | Whitney Beth Photography
Tianna and Wyatt finally were able to have their wedding reception on August 11th! If you remember from their formal session, they straight up eloped a few months earlier and only told their parents hours before it happened! Their original plan was to be married in the Manti temple - but Corona once again threw a wrench in another bride's plan. (Hence the eloping.) Ti and Wyatt still wanted to celebrate with family, so they planned their wedding reception as if they had gotten married that day by having a ring ceremony, luncheon and finishing the night off with a party celebrating with close friends and family. Tianna's aunt hosted the reception in her beautiful backyard. There was so much love and happiness going around as family members not only celebrated the happy couple, but were able to catch up after not seeing each other for months. Throughout the decor, little hints of Cinderella can be found - my favorite being the Jack and Gus stuffed animals sitting on top of the arch. With all the pink ribbon and blue accents it looked straight outta Cinderella's fairytale book. After the cake cutting, bouquet/garter toss and first dance the night started to wind down and Mr. and Mrs. Bigelow were able to exit through a tunnel of bubbles to their getaway car and head off to their honeymoon. I've mentioned before that I only take on weddings as a special request - and what's more special than photographing my niece on her happy day? Congratulations Tianna! Welcome to the family, Wyatt!
