Their tight bond with their parents and siblings was felt by everyone at their wedding. Both parents were genuinely excited and happy for their children. There were more than a few touching moments and even I shed a tear.

Their intimate ceremony was held in the Meeting House, and the reception was on the Village Green. Their were so many incredible details, from the gorgeous flower arrangements and sweet notes from loved ones to snow cones! Townsend’s Catering went above and beyond with one of the best and widest variety of food I have seen. David Townsend said that it was Laurel that brought some wonderful fresh ideas to the table {literally.} Gazpacho soup shooters and gourmet Pastrami sandwiches were some of my favorites. Rhonda spent hours designing their lovely cake. I just loved the white on white details! The grooms cake was amazing, it featured Adam’s favorite beer and a sandwich and fries. Isn’t that unique. It looked like you could pick it right up and eat it.

As you can see, this wedding was such a pleasure to photograph; Laurel, Adam and their families were so warm and made me feel like a part of their wonderful family while working with them! I hope you enjoy the images below, I certainly loved shooting each and every one.

Rachel’s exuberance was contagious! The ceremony took place on Carillon beach under a beautiful custom made bamboo arch. Josiah mouthed “WOW” and “You look SO beautiful” to his bride throughout her entire walk down the aisle! Their reception, held at the Meeting House, was a blast! Highlights include the Shoe Game, which is a hilarious couples trivia contest where the newlyweds got to test their knowledge of one anther. Later, guests “got low” on the dance floor in a limbo contest! Take a look this couple’s dream-come-true wedding!

Jessica and her bridesmaids got their hair done at the Green Peridot and finished getting ready upstairs at the SouthWood House, while Kevin and his groomsmen got ready in the Magnolia Cottage at the SouthWood house. The ceremony took place outside, under majestic oaks. Later, everyone enjoyed signature cocktails and personalized coozies at the reception in front of the house. Common Zenz, the band that performed at the reception, was great! They played all of my favorites (Tom Petty, Rolling Stones, etc.)! At the end of the night, guests saw out the new Mr. and Mrs. Hester by throwing rose petals. Take a look at this gorgeous Tallahassee wedding!

The stained glass is so pretty, every time I am in there I make a point to walk around and take it all in. After the ceremony,we took some time with the bridal party in the Chain of Parks before walking to their Governor’s Club reception. Drew surprised his bride by serenading her with not one, but 2songs. He is a talented artist, for sure! See the link here… shot by a groomsman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0NN2D_cQxc

The couple’s friends and family had a great time at the reception, it was especially touching as days after their wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Hildebrand left little ole Tallahassee to live in California! I truly enjoyed meeting their families and wish them the very very best! Take a look Susan and Andrew’s big day!

When it came time for Lindsey and Brendan to choose a venue for their wedding, they already knew the perfect location, Turtle Beach Inn. The couple had stayed at this beautiful, beach-front inn prior to their engagement and loved the exclusivity it provided. It was a great choice for a secluded wedding with their family and closest friends. Kay got the chance to spend alittle extra time with them right before sunset, her favorite time of the day. It is just gorgeous. Take a look at the Biggs’ big day!

The couple’s reception was classic and intimate. Several unique features and a lot of attention to little details made the venue look amazing! Joslyne had not one, but two wedding dresses for her big day. She surprised everyone with a dress change during the reception and looked just as stunning in the second dress as she did in the first. Everyone danced the night away until the guests lit sparklers and waved goodbye to the newlyweds!
