On Saturday, June 6, 2020, Wild Soul Weddings owner La Rae and associate Sally celebrated the marriage of Reynold and Emily at Emily’s family farm in Charles City, Iowa!
Despite Covid-19, these two decided that no matter what, they wanted to keep their wedding date, as it was Emily’s grandparents’ wedding date. It was a small intimate wedding with so many beautiful details.
They set up a tablet with Zoom so family could participate from afar, Emily’s dad worked tirelessly to rebuild the barn on their property, the area was a true fairytale, they didn’t have a dj, but instead had yard games, and they made individual apple crisps in little mason jars, and Emily and Ray handed those desserts out to everyone.
It was one of the most special, beautiful weddings I’ve ever done, and I couldn’t be more thankful to have been a part of it.
