A Love-Filled Backyard Elopement | Brittany + Blayne

Brittany and Blayne’s Tuesday wedding on October 7 was everything they wanted—intentional, intimate, and full of love. Set in her uncle’s beautiful backyard on the water, this sweet elopement-style day was one we won’t soon forget.

Though the morning brought steady rain, it never dampened their spirits. Their ceremony was delayed just a bit, and once the skies cleared, the magic unfolded. These two were calm, joyful, and completely wrapped up in the presence of their closest friends and family—exactly how a wedding should feel.

The backyard setting made it all the more special. With no formal venue, their surroundings took center stage: a stunning white floral arbor overlooking the water, trees swaying in the breeze, and laughter echoing from the porch as stories were shared about the happy couple.

Brittany looked breathtaking in a relaxed, flowy gown that perfectly matched her easygoing personality. She radiated confidence and grace with every step she took down the aisle. Blayne looked so sharp in his suit, eyes locked on his bride as she made her way to him.

They exchanged vows under the arbor, the raindrops giving way to sunshine, as their loved ones smiled through happy tears. It was the kind of moment that reminds us why we love what we do.

After the ceremony, while family members prepped the food and set the tables, we took time to capture portraits of the newlyweds with the water behind them and the soft light peeking through the trees. You could feel the peace in the air—no rush, no distractions, just love.

And let’s talk about their dessert choice: a doughnut wall packed with delicious flavors! It was a hit with every guest and added a playful, personal touch to the celebration.

These types of weddings—the ones where every person in attendance truly knows the couple—always leave a lasting impression. Brittany and Blayne planned a day that was uniquely theirs, filled with meaningful moments and surrounded by those who love them most.

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Holman! Your backyard elopement was joyful, beautiful, and so full of heart. Enjoy this little sneak peek into your amazing day.

SO MUCH LOVE for these two! Congrats, Brittany and Blayne!!!
