Outdoor Weddings: JJ & Benjamin | Private Residence, KS

 JJ and Ben met in LA. She runs a production design company and he is a photographer. They are inherently creative souls. After their intimate elopement in California they returned to JJ’s hometown in Kansas to throw a backyard reception to celebrate and every detail of their party was full to the brim of JJ and Ben’s creativity.

It was a DIY wedding all around with family and friends pitching in at every turn, from a friend who made the wedding cakes to JJ’s mom who created the flower arrangements (in addition to the most amazing bouquet I’ve ever seen, assembled from antique broaches). Photos of JJ and Ben were everywhere, taken by Ben and their friends. The family even built a dance floor onsite a few hours before the party after the rain had made the ground a soggy mess. The day was filled with warmth and was as original and lovely as the couple we were there to celebrate.
