Tyler � Codi REAL WEDDING

OCTOBER 5, 2013 THE BARN AT BOYDEN FARM CAMBRIDGE, VERMONT PHOTOS BY STOILOV STUDIO

EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD KNOWN EACH OTHER FROM CHILDHOOD, TYLER AND CODI DID NOT CONNECT ROMANTICALLY UNTIL AFTER COLLEGE, DESPITE THE FACT THAT BOTH OF THEIR MOTHERS HAD BEEN HOPING THE TWO WOULD GET TOGETHER FOR YEARS. FIREWORKS, LITERALLY, EXPLODED ON THE NIGHT THAT CODI PROPOSED ATOP A LIFEGUARD TOWER OVERLOOKING THE OCEAN, WHILE ON VACATION.

THE COUPLE HAD ALWAYS LOVED THE RUSTIC BEAUTY OF THE BARN AT BOYDEN FARM, SO IT WAS AN EASY DECISION TO HOST THEIR WEDDING THERE. MAPLE BACON DONUTS, INSTEAD OF CAKE, AND CENTERPIECES MADE FROM HANDMADE BURLAP FLOWERS IN LOCAL WINE BOTTLES AND GROWLERS, WERE JUST SOME OF THE PERSONAL TOUCHES THE COUPLE USED TO INFUSE THEIR PERSONALITIES INTO THEIR SPECIAL DAY.
