As previously reported, the couple wed in front of 106 guests.
“We’re in a redwood forest, but we got married right in front of is this mother tree that’s surrounded by all these smaller trees,” Hayley said.
“They drop all the seeds, and it plants kind of like an army of children to protect the mother. The symbolism of it was beautiful. We’re here, planting our seeds to grow our family.”
Hayley wore a custom dress designed by Georgina Chapman and walked down the aisle to a special rendition of Richard Walters‘ “Unconditional.”
The reception was held in a 100-year-old barn.
The couple also decided ahead of time that they wanted to avoid a choreographed first dance.
“I think everybody’s expecting us to do a performance and a dance whole thing,” Derek said ahead of the wedding. “But that’s the thing, if we perform, we go on stage, we dance, we do things. So for us, it feels more special for us to not perform. To be on the floor with each other, to listen to music, and just be in the moment.”
The couple had been dating for seven years prior to the wedding.
