Almquist Farm has a beautiful property, with so many unique spots for wedding prep, ceremony and reception space, and, of course, photography backgrounds. For their wedding day, Zachary and Delaney were allowed the ease of getting ready and having their ceremony and reception all in the same spot, but from the photos you’d think they spent the entire day traveling to different locations. It’s obvious that these two are right at home in nature, as evidenced by their Minnehaha Falls engagement photos as well!

Deciding to forgo a first look prior to their ceremony, the first time that Zachary saw the bride was as she walked down the aisle, arm-in-arm with her father.  The pay-off of his emotion when Delaney came down the aisle was well worth the wait! We also got plenty of sweet first look moments between Delaney and her dad, as she came down the stairs to greet him after getting ready. Family and friends played an important role in Delaney and Zachary’s day, their tight-knit circle ready for everything from helping the couple prepare for the day, to posing for goofy photos, to egging each other on on the dance floor. 

We could not have asked for a more beautiful space, a more beautiful couple, or a more beautiful day! Thank you for having us capture your wedding day, Delaney and Zachary!
