Mauve and Gray Summer Wedding at Lakefield Weddings in Manheim, PA

Sep 9, 2020

Wilder stood facing the white barn at the beautiful Lakefield Weddings. Slightly swaying back-and-forth. The nerves racing through him as he waited to see his soon-to-be wife. He tried to stay cool and calm on the outside, but inside? He can’t believe the day had finally come. That Emily chose him to spend the rest of her life with him.

Today was the day!

Emily careful walked down the path to where Wilder was waiting. Pausing a moment, so her dress could be beautifully spread out around her. So he could get the full picture of the dress she had chosen.

She took one final breath, and then said his name.

Slowly. With so much anticipation. Wilder turned around to see his gorgeous bride standing there. Instantly, he took a step back. Completely shocked at how stunning Emily was. He couldn’t imagine her being even more beautiful than she was everyday he was with her!

She had completely blown him away!

Quickly, he raced over to her. Sweeping her up in his arms. Holding her tightly. Never wanting to forget this moment. The moment he saw his bride for the first time on their wedding day. Right before she became his husband!

He would surely never let this moment go!

Emily and Wilder! Wow! What to even say.? You two are the epitome of what love is! So much happiness, comfort, and connection flows between you two! You two individually are incredible people, but together? You are truly a strong, beautiful couple! I am so blessed to have had the chance to get to know you two and to now call you friends! Your wedding at Lakefield Weddings is one I will never forget! Just like you two! I hope you enjoy the recap of your beautiful day below, and I can’t wait to share so many more moments soon!

XOXO ~ Heather Marie
