spring - rural hilltop ceremony

 

Acacia & Josiah

You know those days where the clouds feel cozy and the rain drizzling down enhances the mood rather than dampens it? Acacia & Josiah's day was just that. Hidden just outside of Siloam Springs, Arkansas, the ceremony was held on a family-friends' field under a canopy of trees. Blending the cultures that the bride and groom grew up in, every second of the day was steeped in intentional details and moments that honored family and tradition.
