vibrant summertime wedding

Kirby and Zach got married on the perfect summer day last weekend! The second I walked into Marlow Baptist Church, I knew it was going to be a relaxed and joyful wedding day. All of Kirby and Zach’s friends and family were extremely welcoming, and Alex and I felt right at home from the beginning.

Kirby and her girls got ready in the bridal suite of the chapel, but we found a gorgeous all-white space in the back of the fellowship hall that was calling our name for photos. We found the space on a whim, but it was the BEST spot for Kirby to slip on her gown and share a private moment with Zach before the wedding! We even took bridesmaids photos inside because the white walls were the perfect background for the girls’ gray dresses and blush and burgundy flowers. (Not to mention it was a lot cooler inside!)

Zach’s grandpa was the officiant of the wedding which made the couple’s vows even more meaningful. The chapel was packed with friends and family, and some were even standing along the walls!

44 Farms

After Kirby and Zach said “I do” up at the altar, we ventured over to 44 Farms for the reception. I was lucky enough to take their engagement photos and Kirby’s bridal photos at 44 Farms, and it NEVER disappoints! The property is spacious with large trees, and there’s always a golden glow around sunset. Kirby and Zach were excited to take photos on their wedding day, and it made my heart so happy! When my couples put their trust in me and allocate 30 minutes for bride and groom photos, MAGIC happens!

Kirby and Zach are one of those couples who radiate joy. They had a gorgeous wedding, but what was more important to them was that they celebrated with all of their friends and family. During their First Dance, a surprise bubble machine went off in the background! Once it was time to open the dancefloor, the DJ, Century Tree Productions, announced that the couple wanted their wedding to feel like one big party. Commence the dim lights, glow sticks, and bubble machine all night! It really was one big party!

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Young! I hope you have the best time in Antigua, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for you as husband and wife!

 

Thank you to all of the vendors who made this day possible!
