In the last two years, April has been a bridesmaid in three of our past weddings. So to say the least, we have been greatly anticipating the wedding of April and Brandon!

With her closest and sweetest friends and family helping her, April got ready to walk down the aisle and to finally see Brandon. April wanted to look like a princess, and I think she totally achieved that look, slipping into her big and beautiful Casablanca wedding dress. She was just glowing of excitement!

Brandon was of course very excited to see April as well. Just a little bit of nerves set in, while he anxiously waited for that perfect moment.  The moment when he laid eyes on his bride-to-be for the first time in her dress.  Both April and Brandon had the biggest smiles on their faces when they finally got to see each other for the first time.

After April and Brandon took their vows of devotion, we decided to go to one of their favorite spots, “Sweetheart Circle,” on the Georgia Southern University campus.  As they will both be graduating GSU upcoming, the campus holds something special for the both of them.

April and Brandon are not only each others best friend and completely comfortable with one another, but even after 7 years of being together there is still so much love and excitement between the two of them, it was such a beautiful thing to see throughout the day.

Have an amazing time in Hawaii!

Meet April and Brandon!

Rob and Katie’s day started out nice and relaxed, as the two of them, the wedding party and close family got ready together at Wesley Monumental Church, here in Savannah GA.  As anticipation gained of thoughts of the big ceremony, both Katie and Rob’s nerves grew, and could not wait to be husband and wife.

As the time finally came, Katie was all but excited as she finally walked down the aisle and saw Rob for the first time.  All nerves melted away during a very devout and personal ceremony lead by a close family member.  Lots of tears and laughter were shared between Katie, Rob, friends and family.

As the ceremony concluded, guests made their way to the beautiful Delta Plantation, in South Carolina, where a gorgeous spread was laid out by Sebrell Smith Designer Events.  The Delta Plantation is such a unique venue, filled with Lowcountry charm. This 2,752 acre rice plantation was founded in 1830 by the renowned lawyer and politician Langdon Cheves.  It has changed hands many times since then, but is now owned by Mr.John Cay, of Savannah’s firm of Palmer and Cay.

This timeless setting was the perfect backdrop for the celebration of Katie and Rob’s wedding.  Guests enjoyed dinner, refreshments and live music, under the stars and tent next to the more recently built modern pool house.  Katie and Rob left the reception as guests sent them off surrounded by sparklers.  Rob drove the two of them off in an antique 1946 Ford convertible.

Have an amazing honeymoon in the Riviera Maya!

Meet Katie and Rob!

Luba and Scott traveled down from New York, to celebrate their Big Day at the Sea Pines Resort on Hilton Head Island. Though a destination wedding for the couple, you would never know it by the number in attendance. A great amount of friends and family traveled to be at, and share in, Luba and Scott’s marriage celebration, and what a celebration it was!

The day began, as Luba and Scott prepped themselves in separate cottages in Harbor Town. Luba’s dress was very special and unique, as the top part of her dress was actually part of her sisters dress from her wedding over ten years ago!  It looked absolutely amazing on Luba, and Scott could not agree more! 

Scott honestly completely adored Luba, and was not shy about showing her his love.  These two, are not only  two of the sweetest people you will ever meet, but also two of the most fun!  Luba even preformed a pre-ceremony karaoke for the bridal party!

After a little relaxing and fun, Scott and Luba exchanged their vows on the 18th Green of Harbor Town Golf Course.  Luba, Scott, friends and family continued the celebration as the party moved to the Sea Pines Plantation Club.  Here everyone danced and partied the night away!

Congratulations guys!

Have an amazing European Honeymoon!!!

Meet Luba and Scott!

Well this weekend, was finally their Big Day in Hilton Head, at the beautiful Sea Pines Resort.

The wedding day started out, with Erica and Louis anxiously getting ready and anticipating the first time they would see each another, that day. After finally seeing Louis, I swear Erica could not stop smiling!  She was absolutely glowing as she made her way down the aisle to finally say “I do” to her best friend, Louis. Erica totally has one of those smiles, that is so genuine and ecstatically happy, that you can do nothing but smile yourself.

Erica and Louis exchanged their vows, in front of friends and family, on the 18th green of the Harbor Town Golf Course. As ceremony concluded, a beautiful sunset filled the sky and water, and guest were escorted to the Sea Pines Plantation Club. Once at the Plantation Club, the celebration started and didn’t stop till the wee hours of the night…

Erica being a huge perfectionist, at one point during the night, said to me “Allison, every little detail turned out so perfect!”,  with her biggest “Erica smile” on her face. As it so happened, Louis was looking on at this moment, and his facial expression said it all.  That in his eyes, Erica is his perfect!

Congratulations you two!!!

Have an amazing and relaxing time in Bora Bora!!!

Meet Erica and Louis!

Virginia and Charles, are two of the most caring, sweetest, and fun people you will ever meet!  People say that you can really tell a lot about a person, based on who their friends and loved ones are.  Well based on the amazing people we met this weekend, it really showed what incredible people Virginia and Charles are.  From their loving and giving parents,  to their bridal party who all felt like family, these two were surrounded by some unbelievable people, who also made us, feel like part of the family all weekend!

The day started off as Virgina and Charles got ready in separate cottages, with their respected bridal parties. Virginia was completely relaxed the whole day,  and was anticipating the moment when her and Charlie would finally see each other for the first time as she walked down the aisle.  Charlie was a bit nervous right before the ceremony, but as soon as he saw Virginia, all he could think was how lucky he was and how amazing this day would be. Virginia and Charles said their “I do’s” at the Summerall Chapel, on the Citadel Campus grounds.

After the ceremony, guests made their way to Yeaman’s Hall Plantation.  Yeaman’s Hall, renowned for their prestigious golf course was the perfect setting to celebrate Virginia and Charles marriage!  Here guests gathered and partied the night away surrounded by large beautiful oaks, lakes and green fairways.  The day could not have been more perfect, and really reflected what amazing people and the incredible couple Virgina and Charles are.

Congratulations you two! We had such a great time, and can’t wait to hear all about your honeymoon in Limpopo, South Africa, not to mention your big game hunt/safari!

Meet Virginia and Charles!

We have had this date planned for months, and of course it decided to pour right when our session started!  So, we decided to keep things indoors, and if the weather cleared then we would jump outside for a couple.  Nothing could damper Katie’s mood, as she got to finally wear her amazing Vera Wang gown! Katie’s wedding dress is both beautiful and classic, and I could not imagine her in anything less!

Katie’s session took place at the Inn at Palmetto Bluff.  This gorgeous venue was chosen by Katie, as it holds a special place in her heart.  Not only does it have simplistic beauty, but here is where Katie and Rob, Katie’s fiance, had a beautiful breakfast the morning after he proposed to her!

The session was to much fun, and Katie absolutely glowed the entire time!  The sun even came out for a little bit!  :)

Can’t wait for the big day in just a couple weeks!  And I can’t wait to see Rob’s face when he sees you for the first time!

Meet Katie!

We started their engagement shoot around the historic squares of downtown Savannah.  Kara and Gery brought along their sweetest dog, Maddie, and we had  a great time walking and talking, not to mention taking a few photos along the way.   Next our engagement session got a little bit more adventurous as we made our way to some old railroad tracks, and railroad car.  The railroad tracks are in the middle of marsh land, and some wildlife decided to greet us.  On our way back to the car, a huge snake about 6ft long stood in our way.  After some “gentle coaxing” by Gery and Rich, it finally moved and slithered off back into the marsh.  We’ll just say, we left in a hurry! hehe

Hopefully Kara and Gery’s wedding day will not be so adventurous!

We had a great time with you two, Rich and I will never forget your engagement session!

Meet Kara and Gery!
