Laura & Daniel’s Pagan archery and knitting wedding

These nature-loving Pagans were handfasted years ago, but they knew it was time to get it recognized. With archery influences and an amazing knitted bouquet, buttonholes, and even the cake topper, this wedding is a sight to see. Side note: hiring a photographer might have been the best move they made based on these gorgeous park shots.
