Brooke and Hayden’s Mount Rose Trail wedding is a perfect example of the beauty of being true to yourself as a couple when planning your big day! Donning a stunning bohemian-style Rue de Seine gown and a dapper tweed suit, this adventurous couple exchanged vows on a scenic hillside in front of 17 of their closest friends and family. The intimate party then continued at the bride’s family’s home where they ate, told stories, and danced the night away. Even with minimal decor, Martha Bernyk Floral Design knocked it out of the park with greenery-forward bouquets and berry and rose adorned table garlands, all of which tied into the bride’s gorgeous floral hairpiece. Autumn Nicole Photography outdid herself yet again and made us fall in love with every emotional moment and sunset portrait in this wildly romantic wedding!

The Wedding:

Mount Rose Trail and Private Residence, Incline Village, Nevada

Adventuring outdoors and taking getaways to the mountains has always been a theme in our relationship, so saying our vows on a mountainside was a no brainer! Mount Rose Trail is one of our favorites with beautiful views of the lake, and my parents have a home near Lake Tahoe, so it was the perfect place.

We only included seventeen of our closest family and friends, which made for an intimate, natural, stress-free weekend. Having such a small group only added to the fun and shenanigans that went down that weekend, which is exactly what we wanted! The most important people in our lives coming together to celebrate our love is more than we could’ve ever asked for.

We had our one of our best friends, Joey, officiate the ceremony. He has been in Hayden‘s life since they were just little kids and knows us better than anyone. Together, the three of us wrote the script and Joey added some of his own words. Hayden and I wrote our own vows and heard them for the first time during the ceremony.
