Pennsylvania Intimate Wedding

Maddy+Marriah’s small wedding at Tussey Mountain Lodge

When I found out that Marriah and Maddie met while working for an urban forestry non-profit, I knew we would be a great fit. Their vision, was to have a small wedding, with a fairly casual vibe. They also wanted to do a camping engagement session, which you can see here, and had a plan to plant a tree together at their venue, the Tussey Mountain Lodge

Pennsylvania Intimate Wedding Ceremony

The couple had a beautiful ceremony on the patio, officiated by Maddie’s brother. There was not a dry eye in the place. They laughed, they cried, and then they shared an epic first kiss, where Marriah actually lifted Maddie with excitement.

Intimate Wedding Reception

Maddie and Marriah wanted a casual vibe, but they also wanted to have a real celebration with all of their loved ones. Their reception was a reflection of both of these things. It was relaxed, but it was also filled with emotion and love, and a full dance floor.

Wedding Tree Planting Ceremony

The morning after the wedding, we met up at sunrise, and the couple planted a tree in honor of their marriage, and their deep connection with nature. It was the sweetest moment, and a perfect end to their celebration

From the couple

“Aimee is truly the best! She worked with us to put together a plan for our wedding photography that fit exactly what we envisioned. From an engagement session at a campsite to a tree planting the morning after the wedding, Aimee helped us check off every wish list item we hoped for. As an LGBTQ+ couple, we felt very accepted and welcomed by Aimee. She was very responsive and communicative throughout the process. And the photos were perfect! We highly recommend hiring Aimee”
