Virginia and Alabama are for lovers 💘
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With the bride’s family from Birmingham and the groom’s from NoVa, we combined details from both to create the perfect day for Molly and Tommy at ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
crafted a vibrant summer color palette for Molly’s vision, lovingly described as “garden whimsy.” We included nods to the venue with put-put golf at cocktail hour. The couple’s chocolate lab Millie joined us for portraits time just before sunset. And of course we had to include the age-old Kiesner Celtic Symphony on the dance floor.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rain or shine, could not have asked for a more beautiful day for these two!!

The threat of rain didn’t stop Mary Anna and Richie from saying ‘I do’ in April at her family’s home in Brandon. As the wedding day approached, we braced for rain, and backup plans were put into motion.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, the night before, the forecast shifted and we were blessed with the most glorious sunshine and sunset glow. Thankful for days like this and clients like these, and a weekend I’ll never forget with the Jefcoats and Longs.

Always a pleasure working with

About 2.5 years ago we met in the rose garden. The rest is history.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Take me back to Hershey Gardens on this magical night with Liz and Paul (minus the part where I thought I left my phone by the fountain and the park closed. Found it later in my bag ofc 😆)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This was a good one.
