I’d never been up to Bear Lake before, and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to shoot a wedding reception at such a beautiful location! Following Keisha & Sam’s morning wedding in the Logan Temple, the couple headed off toward Montpelier, Idaho, for a vintage-inspired wedding dinner and reception later that night. The venue was an old recreation hall, and it fit the theme perfectly. Keisha and her army of helpers had paid so much attention to every beautiful detail. Every window, nook and cranny was filled with photos, flowers, or decorations. My favorites were the beautiful, mismatched, little bud vases scattered here and there, full of a gorgeous variety of pastel flowers. A giant cream-colored parachute hung from the ceiling to create a beautiful canopy for the couple to dance underneath. After an amazing sit-down dinner, followed by old-fashioned caramels and homemade treats, the dancing began! Keisha’s mom is from Colombia, and in case you haven’t ever attended a Latin influenced party before, they are THE MOST FUN! The guests came for the duration. No popping in and leaving after ten minutes at this party! The dollar dancing was one of my favorite things to watch, and the dancing was non-stop! At the end of the evening, instead of blowing the traditional bubbles or lighting sparklers, everyone was given a little satchel of lavender to throw, and the couple escaped off into the night. It couldn’t have been more fun! I’m so happy for this sweet couple. They have so many exciting adventures ahead of them!
