An unforgettable day celebrating Audrey + Camden!

From our first consultation together, Audrey said she wanted her wedding day to feel “warm and welcoming”… We turned a big, empty space into an intimate, candlelit dinner that made all of their guests feel cozy and right at home. The thoughtful details made this wedding one to remember from the warm color palette and natural textures to the feather accents in the place settings and lighting installations.

It’s always hard helping our couples into their getaways cars at the end of the night after spending so much time preparing for wedding day together, but in the same breathe, we are overjoyed to finally send them off into married life! Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Gaw!!! 🤎

Maria + James’ wedding was an unforgettable day at Burritt on the Mountain! We battled hurricane winds and rain all day, but the clouds parted for the briefest of moments for a sweet, at times, humorous, and beautifully dramatic ceremony. Waiting until the last possible second to make a weather call and soaking up as much water off the chairs as we could while it was drizzling was all worth it to try to make their dream wedding come true. Maria referred to her wedding day as her “Pride & Prejudice moment” and I think I’m going to start calling it that when it rains on wedding day because who doesn’t love that scene? Congratulations to The Copelands—May your marriage be full of good luck!!!

Brent & Haley’s wedding day was a picture of timeless, Southern beauty! We turned an industrial venue into a light & airy atmosphere. My favorite part—The 6-tier cake by that was a dream of Haley’s since she was a little girl! ✨

These cooler temps got us excited for all of our upcoming fall weddings!!! 🍂

We are a little more than a year from Blake + Shelby’s Fall 2025 wedding at the Huntsville Botanical Gardens! We are about halfway through the planning process which shows you can never start planning too early.

Excited to start entering the design phase and bring another beautiful wedding vision to life! Bring on all the warm color palettes (and constant flow of pumpkin spice lattes).

Got to celebrate my childhood best friend in Oregon on Saturday! The whole weekend embodied Tim and Caroline and their love of hospitality and for each other. There were so many personal touches and Caroline was not afraid to do things differently like choosing to offer a family-style dinner at the reception. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to be a small part of her big day, catch up with old friends, and spend time with my husband who doubled as my assistant. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. HOLST!!! 🏕️

On Sunday, I had the pleasure of working with a talented team of wedding professionals to host the most beautiful styled shoot at The Venue at Oak Place.

This styled shoot was special to me in so many ways… Not only was I surrounded by friendships I am making in this industry, but the women in these photographs are some of my closest girlfriends and their husbands—most with babies and one along the way! It was a joy to watch them be pampered and feel pretty outside of the day-to-day of motherhood!

I’m so thankful for Lexi for asking me to be a part of this styled shoot and trusting me with her vision, the other photographers who joined us, and the incredibly talented team that made it all possible! I’m blessed to know each of you and to be able to work with you in this industry. It warmed my heart to know that this was a chance for us all to put normal life on the back burner for a little while and to do what we all love. 🤍
