The best part of the venue: “The effort the owners have put into making the venue absolutely beautiful and how they’ve thought of every detail. We didn’t need to add much decor wise, the buildings and location were stunning by themselves.”
Why did you pick your venue: “It was the only one we really even considered. The venue was everything we hoped for on the tour and the owners, Billy and Stephanie, were amazing hosts.”
Favorite part of your gown: “The small intricate detailing throughout the dress and the train. It made me feel effortlessly elegant without being over the top. Also, it was VERY comfy.”
Why did you pick your dress: “It made me picture walking down the aisle to my best friend, and made me feel like a strong, confident, woman.”
Three words to describe your day: “Love, happiness, dancing.”
How you met: “Tinder!”
How they proposed: “We went to tour AK Diamond J Ranch on August 2020, and stopped at Kenai Lake on the way home. He surprised me and proposed after we’d confirmed the ranch was where we’d wanted to get married.”
