"Proverbs 17:22 says, 'A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.' These two exemplify what it means to have a 'joyful heart.' The ENTIRE day was full of laughs - just wait until you see their first look photos! Abby + Will have a love that is so pure, so innocent, and so refreshing. You can't help but laugh when you're around them, which is probably why over 300 people showed up to celebrate with them.

There is a time and place for everything under the sun. That's why Abby + Will chose a ceremony space that affirmed their respect for God's covenant of marriage, and a reception space that exemplified the fact that marriage should be FUN! I'm not sure anyone stopped smiling the entire night (I know we didn't!). Abby, Will, nor any of their guests will ever forget this incredible celebration. I'm so grateful to have met them and their families. Congratulations, again, Abby + Will! We love you two."

Family prayer moments are one of my favorite ceremony traditions.

I'm pretty sure the cake tastings were their favorite part of planning :)

Abby + Will's first date was at Doodle's, so I loved that they brought in the cart as a late night snack!
He couldn't do it again if he tried, but Will landed the garter perfectly on one of the rafters in the ceiling!
Picture
His reaction was totally priceless.

Chasidy + Patrick Birmingham, Alabama

10/13/2018

When I initially asked Chasidy what she envisioned for her wedding venue she said that she wanted something special. One look at Iron City and she was hooked! In addition to the rocker venue, the unique dress and her choice to have her long-time friend Landen be a Bridesman, Chasidy's personality was present in the colorful linens, the robust florals, the indulgent food and the moody choice for photography.  This bride was determined not to let anything deter her from what she wanted on her big day and the results were amazing!

Chasidy's stunning bejeweled bodice ball gown in the palest shade of dusty blush.

Chasidy borrowed a stunning shawl from her grandmother's closet to add a personal touch to her Bridal portraits. 
Picture
Just look at the joy on her face! These two have been friends since grade school and their warm connection was palpable. Thank you, Landen, for bringing so much warmth to the day! 
Picture

Why have one party location for your wedding day when you could have two? Chasidy and Patrick's ceremony was in the event space at Avondale Brewing Company.  The windows face west, allowing all that gorgeous sunset lighting to come pouring in to share in the festivities. Better still, the bar was open for the guests to get the party started! 
Picture
The couple paused for a few portraits with Ryland and then it was on to Iron City for the reception!

Tina was introduced to Mick by her twin sister's boyfriend.  The two hit it off immediately!  After dating for four years they were engaged and planning a wedding in their home town of Troy, Alabama. It turned out to be a perfect summer day!

Getting ready with her Bridesmaids and her Maid of Honor and twin sister, Kat; Traditional Hawaiian wedding leis, as worn by her mother at her wedding. 
Picture
Tina's mother, Zeny, who is of Hawaiian descent, says she knew from the start the Mick was the one! Zeny had me laughing all day!  This family is so close and it shows!
Picture
Like Father, like son.  Aren't they adorable?!
Picture

Tina had five of her closest friends, her new sister-in-law and Kat by her side.

The Bride's Besties. The flowers were bursting with blush roses, white hydrangeas, greenery and my favorite: thistle!
Picture
Picture
Mick and Seth have been friends for years and now they will be brothers-in-law!  
Picture
Mick chose not to do "first look" with Tina because he wanted to see her for the first time as she walked down the aisle towards him.  His reaction was just what any bride would hope for.  Cue the Kleenex!

So many thanks to The Studio, Abby of Veritatis Photography, Tammy from A Catered Affair, and so many other family and friends who helped with set up, take down, and everything in between!
