Wrapped in the timeless charm of Chapel in the Pines, Stephanie + David said ‘I do’ amidst the whispers of ancient trees and echoes of history. 🌲💍 Each glance and gentle touch tells a story of a love as enduring as the chapel itself. ! ✨

Journey along a tale of love and time with us throughout Laura and Jason's Marvelous Midway Village Museum Wedding! 🤍✨

In the very heart of the COVID lockdown, Laura and Jason's hearts found their way to one another as they happened to meet online while cooped up in their homes. After they had exchanged conversations for a few weeks, they agreed they wanted to meet up for a date at their now-favorite brewery - and I...

“Grace’s favorite song so it always makes me think of her and how much I love her.” ~ David

Ladies, when your favorite song becomes one of the number one things that reminds your man of his love for you, that’s when you know he’s the one!! ✨

This was one of Grace and David’s top five songs in our couple’s questionnaire, and the quote above was the little note he typed after the song name - one of the sweetest answers ever!! 🥹

Congratulations, again, to David & Grace! 🤍🥂

And thank you to all of the lovely companies and vendors that made this sweet couple’s day possible! 🫶🏻

You know that exact feeling you felt when your partner said "YES!" to being your forever other half? 🤍

Well, I think we captured the embodiment of that feeling exactly during Jenna & Alex's session!

These photos brought a tear to my eye and have a special meaning behind them! 🤍

In case you missed Steph and Eddie's blog, we shared on there the moment Eddie knew that Steph was THE one. He reminisced on the memory of the first few weeks of their dating journey. Although he doesn't usually eat fortune cookies, on this particular day in question he pulled out a fortune that said "Stop searching forever. Happiness is just next to you." 🥹

Looking over at Steph, he realized she was his forever, and now they are living happily as Mr. and Mrs. Victoria! Going back through their finished gallery and reliving such a fantastic day was so fun! 🥰

We are forever grateful for these phenomenal vendors and companies that pulled together to make such a beautiful day possible!
