Kaylyn + Brett | The Mill at Yellow River, Porterdale, Ga Wedding

When Kaylyn, the event coordinator of The Mill at Yellow River, asked me to be her wedding photographer, I was beyond honored!!! Her and I have worked together on several beautiful weddings at The Mill and getting to photograph her marry her love, Brett, meant the world to me. Brett and Kaylyn have incredible families and they made us feel so welcomed. When I was photographing Brett, before their first look, he was asking about Kaylyn. The smile on his face was from ear to ear when I told him just how stunning she looked. The love!!!

Now, the decor! Todd + Jakob, owners of The Mill at Yellow River and Beyond Details, really went above and beyond to make Kaylyn and Brett's day stand out above all! Kaylyn and her mother both work with Jakob and Todd and you can just feel the love these folks have for one another.

There were so many special moments! During their ceremony, just before they were pronounced husband and wife, the sky let out the sweetest little fluffy white puffs. I have no idea what they were, but you will see them in the photographs. It gave me chills and the guests looked amazed too!

To end the night, Brett, Kaylyn and all their guests formed a circle with arms around each other and they all sang and swayed side to side before heading out to send them off.

Kaylyn and Brett, thank you two from the bottom of my heart for having Arlissa and I as your wedding photographers and allowing us to be such a big part of your special day! I wish you two the best!

Lindsey + Kevin | Historic Downtown Monroe, Ga Wedding

Lindsey + Kevin's wedding day was so spectacular! We started our day photographing Lindsey + her ladies getting ready at the Sparrow Hill Inn. Miriam, my assistant photographer and I, were ready to back a U-Haul up to the front door and start loading it up with the furnishing in this place! lol It's so beautifully decorated and it made one stunning backdrop for Lindsey. Here Lindsey wrote her vows and labeled them "Important!" Once Lindsey was dressed in her gown, she walked down the staircase to the front room where her grandma was sitting. I'm so thankful I was right behind her as she turned the corner. Her grandma burst into tears when she saw her. It was so, so sweet! Once everyone was ready, we headed over to the Historic Monroe Courthouse to photograph Lindsey and her bridesmaids. The ladies then went to the "holding" area at The Sunroom at the Wayfarer Hotel. Lindsey and her dad shared a first look here.

Lindsey's dad drove her to the front of the courthouse and walked her down the isle. Kevin took a deep breath when he saw her. . .she was absolutely stunning! They walked up the steps and read their vows to one another.

I loved walking around downtown Monroe with Lindsey + Kevin photographing them in a town where I work and enjoy. We went down some of the ally ways where the light was perfection. They are such a sweet couple and their laughter and love shines through.

The Cotton Warehouse was our very last stop for their reception. Lindsey + Kevin, followed by their bridal party, enjoyed a private meal before being announced to their guests. Shortly after the couple was announced for the very first time as Mr. + Mrs. Prouty the dancing began! It was quite a day and I can say I got lots of steps on my Fitbit! lol Congratulations Lindsey + Kevin!!!
