This bar crawl wedding shoot might be the booziest wedding photos ever

Shots were taken at Courtney and Matt’s bar crawl wedding shoot… and we’re not just talking about the photos. Courtney was in a wheelchair on their wedding day, so she wanted to get some photos in her wedding dress once she was healed and able to stand. But Courtney and Matt did way more than stand for this shoot… they decided to get dressed up in their wedding attire, invite their friends, and hit the streets of their hometown, stopping at some of their favorite bars along the way.
