Endearing and Intimate Private Lakeside Cabin Wedding with Vintage Touches

Tatum and Max Hart first met during spring break of their junior year of high school - but because they lived states apart, it took several years for their love story to take off. After meeting again and going on dates during another vacation in Tatum's first year of college, the couple knew they were destined to be together and began navigating a long-distance relationship for over 3 years. Only after graduating from college was Tatum able to move to Arizona to join Max. Family and personal details were priorities for the couple while planning their wedding, so they chose to host the celebration at their family's charming private lakeside cabin in Detroit Lakes. The location created a personal, intimate and beautiful backdrop to the day's activities. Vintage decor and colorful florals transformed the familiar cabin into a sunny paradise. The heartfelt ceremony on the bright green lawn faced Detroit Lake and the family's endearing white dock, where the couple shared a kiss between elegant, pastel-colored flowers. As an added touch of tradition, Tatum wore the same vintage Chanel earrings that Max's mom wore on her own wedding day. The reception also took place on the lawn in the shade of tall, leafy trees that enhanced the feelings of intimacy and joy. The sparkling silver lake matched the lush greenery beneath the glow of warm string lights, creating a magical atmosphere. Family and friends played important roles in planning many aspects of the event, and Tatum herself designed many parts, like the stationery. At the end of the night, the newlyweds leaped off the end of the dock into the lake along with their guests, a playful and joyous way to wrap up their special day.
