I first met Tyler and Liz at a coffee house last fall when they first inquired, and I left the meeting feeling like I just caught up with some old friends! Yes, we talked all things wedding, but they shared more than that; they told me all about their life, what they do, how they met, and I loved hearing every bit! They are two VERY joyful people that are excited about life together! They got married at Ushers Ferry Historic Village in Cedar Rapids – one of the most beautiful venues in the fall! They planned on an outdoor ceremony, but as the days got closer, the forecast called for higher and higher chances of rain ALL DAY! Fortunately, the weather cleared up, it didn’t rain a drop, and they got married in a gazebo like they dreamed of! Trees were turning color all around them as they said their “I do’s” and it was the sweetest way to become husband and wife!

Liz surprised Tyler by having their dog, Bear, walk down the aisle during the ceremony!

Tyler and Liz wanted a photo of all four of their grandmother’s with their late husbands – such a sweet way to remember them!
