Show-stopping Flathead Lake Lodge Wedding, Montana – The Main Event

“Just like a boomerang, I keep coming back to you”…  ~ Winslet

To quote Vince…OBSESSED. LOVE. OMG. Dying. Crying… And from Ry…. Lots & lots & lots of heart emojis…Literally. That’s about all we have left to really say. This wedding was EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING. And we just LOVE you both. And adore each & every person involved in the bringing together of these hearts and the magic that transpired in Montana. After the total white-out of the Pre-show week, it was truly extraordinary when the skies miraculously parted moments before the ceremony. And Big Blue Sky joined the party. It unfolded right in front of us all during our whirlwind couple shoot (while simultaneously hiding from the guests). So of course we made Vince jump 3 fences in a white Dolce Gabbana vintage suit to get the iconic series with the horses…Those perfect horses, which looked they just been put there for us. Of course once we were done we found the main gate completely unlatched and we just wandered through. Yes, it was THAT dramatic. And real. And beautiful. And so love filled. And emotional. And so romantic. And hilarious. And bare-chested by the end of the night. Love lessons all round. With the most incredible soundtrack, stunning details, lake-side sunset reception, those cocktails, mind-blowing first dances (with THOSE entrances) and an all-night dance marathon in a barn, on a Dude Ranch, somewhere in Montana, that still hurts a little just thinking about the next morning… It’s like we can’t even…So we won’t. So here’s the Main Show…Good luck getting off the dance floor at the end. In fact don’t bother. Sign says…Just Dance.

Vince & Ry…no words, just massive, everlasting love. Trace, Dee & 37 Frames x x

  3. breathtaking photos, just unbelievable, how do you catch so many great moments?! this is amazing!! Classic and creative.

  4. Sometimes people say they have no words. But I literally have no words. Both for the beauty of the day, the grooms, their family & friends. And for the extreme skill and vast eloquence you have shown while photographing this love story. You’re at the top of your game. I’ve been moved to tears, I’ve laughed at the joy, I’ve marveled at the first dance. The moments, the protraits, the angles – you’re everywhere. It’s incredible. I don’t know any of these people and yet I feel a part of them all. Thank you so much for sharing.

    I’m from Australia, such emotions captured so beautifully are the reason why I voted yes.

  13. These photos. HOW DID THEY CAPTURE THIS DAY SO ACCURATELY! I’m crying all over again/ love you two and your love so much.

  18. OMG!! I wish I knew this couple!!! I’m crying at the beauty!! Congratulations, Vince and Ryan!!! Your day was perfect!!!

  19. I dunno the couple, I dunno the photographer, this is, by far, some of the best wedding photography I have ever seen. SO much better than me. A million, maybe billion times better than me.

  20. Wow! Those are incredible! Having two men that could be Calvin Klein models with gregarious personalities in the most beautiful place in the world didn’t hurt, I’m sure! Beautiful!

  21. I went all through school with one of the grooms, could not be a nicer guy! It’s wonderful to see him so in love and happy

  22. You know the Salonen family is a GF family, right? Their accounts are two of my fav IG acts to follow. They are soooooo vibrant & full of life!

  23. So much love and joy in those photos. Beautiful wedding. Beautiful photos. And I hope their life together is just as beautiful.

  24. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS IN EVERY WAY. So fun. Do you remember there was a Jewish guy on NOBS that did coverage very in the moment like this that was right in there and made you feel like you were there? I think his name started with an M. Anyway, that’s what I loved about it. And that the photographer wasn’t afraid to let the photos be dark because that was the look of the day. Really fantastic work in every way.

  25. I am also OBSESSED!!! I think I’m gonna have to go with this wedding planner when it’s my time to get hitched. And this couple?!?! SIMPLY FUCKING FABULOUS!! Obsessed. LOVE!

  26. Dearest Trace & Dee,
    I am forever grateful for and blessed by the two of you and your gift to all of us- capturing every facet of love shared at Ryan and Vince’s wedding. ❤️ 5 months later and I still smile through tears looking through your photos of such a magical weekend. There will never be another like it! Thank you ! Thank you for sharing YOUR love with all of us. I love you both. Because…. Love is forever ❤️?❤️Hugging you ever so tight?
