Much of the wedding was put together DIY-style. Dane and Lynda made their own invitations, and even brandied cherries for drinks themselves. “Our main mission was to enjoy each other and our company and spend less time worrying about formality,” Lynda said. The two made an old fashioned bar out of a chest they found at Goodwill. Tables were decorated with small vases — also found at Goodwill — and flowers from the Farmers Market. Centerpieces were made from small cheese wheels in the shape of wedding cakes.

   An important detail that Dane and Lynda included as an element in their wedding was GPS coordinates. “GPS coordinates are something Dane and I plot for the special moments in our life,” Lynda said. They plotted the coordinates to where they would get married and placed it on their invitations. The GPS theme carried from decorations to the table numbers at the reception.

   Dane’s father officiated the wedding and the two were married outside at a point near the water overlooking the lake at the quaint and charming Lakedale Resort.
