Wilderness Ridge weddings are seriously some of my absolute favorite. They have an outdoor venue called the Wedding Island where brides and grooms can have an outdoor ceremony. It seats around 150 comfortably and has a large, gorgeous tree in the middle that provides shade as well as the perfect photo backdrop. It is surrounded by water for a very intimate feel. Their indoor ballroom is a short walk up the hill. It has an upscale log cabin feel and needs minimal decor to bring out the beauty of the room.
Kali is from my hometown in Iowa and runs her own blog (check it out here!) She knew long before she met Zac that Wilderness Ridge was exactly where she wanted her dream wedding to happen. When she originally contacted me for her wedding day videography and told me the story of her and Zac, we decided a Love Story would be the perfect add on to tell the unique story of the two of them.
Their wedding day weather was beautiful, along with all their decor, colors, and dresses. The green of the golf course paired with the setting sun gave Nikki the chance to capture the love these two have on such a gorgeous backdrop. Inside the ballroom, they had one of the most adorable wedding cake tables I have ever seen! Her gold oversized letters spelled cake and gave the table that extra pop in front of her pink cake. Another perfect touch was her sister singing Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide” while Kali danced with her father. Overall it was a magical day and we couldn’t have been happier to share it with them!
