Stonegate Mansion Wedding

I’m sure it seems like I say this about everyone but I MEAN IT! I love this couple. This wedding was amazing. I met Faby and Junior early this year to talk wedding plans, but I got to know Faby better at her bridal session this summer. I spent that hour chatting it up with her and her mom and I adore them. They were both so fun and Faby is just this photogenic beauty and so natural in front of the camera.

I already knew that I would be in for a great wedding day but my jaw literally dropped when I got there and Faby handed me a whole set of fresh florals just for me to use for her details. There was easily a dozen to choose from. Dream come true. And look at that acrylic invitation! It definitely set the tone for the rest of the day. I’d say the theme was sparkly glam + abundant florals everywhere.

I love this groom detail photo my second shooter, Christy styled and took!

Wow, right? I’ve seen lots of beautiful floral installations but this circle wedding arch is so perfectly lush. It was showstopper number one for the day, followed by a hanging installation you’ll see later at the reception.

REAL MOMENT of the groom wiping away his bride’s happy tears. *Swoon*

I love what’s going on in the left corner of the photo on the left. That’s Faby’s big sister holding on to Junior’s daughter, who were both crying happy tears at this union.

This photo is perfect, but what I love the most is that it wasn’t posed. They were waiting for Faby’s parents so we could start family photos and those just-married-feels had them feeling lovey dovey. The moment was interrupted by Faby’s dad hollering at them lovingly. It was cute.

Veil shots are a must.

Golden hour came through! I’m so appreciative of a couple who lets me guide them on their wedding timeline. When we first met, they didn’t have a set timeline so we created one together based on the light for their outdoor wedding. I’m thrilled with the result and I’m sure they will be too!

Mr. and Mrs. STYLES everyone. What a cool name. I think Faby’s already embodying it. I mean look that bridal bun! Daniela Bell nailed this gorgeous bridal look.

Elena’s Cakes never ceases to impress.

This hydrangea floral halo gives me life. It’s my favorite piece of reception decor ever. I probably included it in over half of the reception photos. Showstopper number two.

Faby and Junior’s danced a beautifully choreographed routine for their first dance, sung and played live by their friend and Faby’s bridesmaid. Live music is so romantic.
