Clayton Wedding - Utah State Alumni Wedding Venue Logan Utah Photographer - Stacey Hansen Photography

Paul and Alix really are the perfect couple. Their wedding shows just that. They are so full of life, fun, adventure and love. These are the types of couples that photographers dream of as clients. A picture perfect wedding and a couple that is laid back but totally in love. I think that explains Paul and Alix perfectly. Clayton Wedding – Utah State Alumni Wedding Venue Logan Utah Photographer

They were married on September 23rd 2017 at the Utah State Alumni House in Logan Utah. Their wedding was gorgeous. Of course the weather in Cache Valley is always unknown. It had been raining all week so they decided to have the white canopy out in case it was raining on their wedding day since they were planning on an outdoor ceremony. And with true cache valley weather and its unpredictable behavior it was perfect weather the day of their wedding. While we didn’t get rain it was a little chilly and the canopy was perfect to shield the guests. But, the lights under the canopy seriously made the ceremony so beautiful. Alix’s dad worked hard to hang all the lights (which really helped me out as the photographer to give more light for their ceremony), but it also totally set the mood for them as well! Here’s how their day went….

I met up with Alix and her bridal party at the Marriott so I could capture them getting ready. They were all so much fun to work with. Hair and make up were beautiful! Laura did amazing on Alix’s up do and Emily was fantastic to watch do her make up!

We headed to the Alumni Center just after 4 for their ceremony at 5 pm. Paul hadn’t seen Alix’s dress yet and I love the idea of doing the old school first look during the walk down the isle! The ceremony was amazing. They read their own vows. You could feel their love radiate (and the heaters too). After the ceremony we took family pictures. They had a drink station by USU Catering for their guests and boy they were delicious! It was the perfect treat and distraction for their guests while we did pictures. Next up there was a yummy dinner indoors. They let friends and family share thoughts and memories with the bride and groom. I had to laugh when Alix’s brother brought out a toaster and said here’s my toast. 🙂

To end the night there was a reception filled with dancing. I hate to even call it a reception because it was all dancing. Fun, energetic, outgoing and awesome. That explains the dance crowd. The danced together for the first song and near the end Alix had planned a dance of her own. She worked with the DJ to cut their song short and then sat Paul down. Alix danced for him and then with her bridesmaids rocked out on the guitars. It was so much fun! Alix is definitely one outgoing bride!

They ended the night with a bubble send off at the Alumni Center. Once they drove away, I ran over to the ‘A’ and met them there for a quick photo. They had met while going to USU and then were married at USU so it was the perfect photo to end their evening. It was such an awesome wedding to be apart of!

Congratulations Alix and Paul. I have LOVED working with you both. Can’t wait for FORMALS!
