Tracie and Matt were especially wanting us to photograph more of the artistic, fun pictures and, when you see the slideshow, you will see what I mean. We all had fun and it was an artist’s pallet for color and beauty.

Laurelwood Farms on Signal Mountain is one of those places that I just love to photograph. When Goldie and James asked us to photograph their wedding and reception there, I was totally excited. I hope you’ll enjoy the slideshow and following pictures of their happy day.

A longtime Disney enthusiast, Jessica asked for and got a Wonderful World of Disney Wedding imported to Rock Spring, Georgia. Sound Force worked their magic in the kingdom and transformed the Rock Spring UMC fellowship hall into a fun-filled mystical, magical place. Impressions Catering had some magic of their own serving up an outstanding breakfast buffet which included Mickey Mouse shaped sausage, pancakes and waffles. Can you say, “Yummy?”

A beautiful couple, beautiful families, beautiful church, beautiful vineyard, and, oh, yeah, it was a gorgeous day! Plenty of sunshine, lots of pictures and a whole lot of family and friends made for a very, very special day.

Nicole and Tom are two of the friendliest people ever. Their families are delightful and the bridal party were just plain fun.

The Vineyard, scene of the awesome reception.  This is a new venue in LaFayette, Georgia.

The beautiful bride, Nicole, with some of her bridesmaids.

I love this sequence.

Thanks to the hard work of wedding event coordinator, Veronica Seaman of Veo Weddings and Events, the day went very smoothly (not counting the buses’ bumps and bruises). Nicole’s uncle brought The Grapevine Band all the way from Macon, Georgia and they rocked on.  Impressions Catering did an amazing job of catering and serving the guests and the food was outstanding.  A special thanks to The Sheraton Read House, where the bridal party and families met for pictures.

Congratulations, Nicole and Tom, and God Bless!

I love that their families came from all over the world; England, Germany, and France. I can’t think of a better location than the Grandview. Not only is this one of the premier views of Chattanooga, but the service, food and facility is Five Star. Dan “The Cakeman” Carey made creative and delicious wedding cakes. He is definitely the cake man.

We enjoyed working with Choo Choo Entertainment who did an outstanding job with the DJ duties. Trying to find some Armenian music using a smart phone was really creative.

The Silver Ballroom in The Sheraton Read House , with Sarah Cook serving as Manager of Wedding Events,  is a premier location in Chattanooga.  The food is really good and the service always excellent.  Four stars for the wedding cake it was delicious.  Mike Key from Great American Music sent Hunter Sims and Mike Stoess, co-workers and Lee University students, to handle the DJ duties.  They did you proud, Mike.

Over the years we have met some great guys and Jake is one of the most gracious ever. Laura Beth is equally as gracious and her inner beauty is as noticeable as her outward beauty. We are just totally thankful to be their photographers.

A kiss to build a dream on…

1st Cumberland Presbyterian and amazing architecture.

Lots of fun at the reception.  Laura Beth hanging on.  By the way, Jake went first.

A bright, well-lighted send-off.

Sweet bridesmaid and some final details.

I love Josh’s expression and the anticipation of seeing his bride for the first time in her wedding dress.

Josh and Katie seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day.  Awesome moment.

Sweet moments and a wonderful day.  Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Josh Curtis!!!

Chattanooga is blessed with some amazing wedding vendors who are such a pleasure to work with and at this wedding it was Michael Clark, the Grandview staff, Mike Key, Blissful Moments (Kate & Molly), Julie Tolbert, and Tiffany Envid who all did an amazing job.

Oh, and I don’t want to forget the wonderful staff at Magic Hands Salon who were amazing.

For all of you who know Christian, this picture really captures his personality.  He is a cut-up, for sure, and at one point, Terry was having a lot of trouble keeping his camera steady because he was laughing so hard.  Anyway, I loved photographing this wedding.  Elizabeth is a sweetheart and who doesn’t love Christian.

This is one of my favorites with the whole wedding party having some fun.

Did I tell you, we laughed a lot?

Sweet moments at the reception.

I also want to say how much I appreciated all of the wedding vendors who worked at this wedding.  Marty Hughes, videographer, recorded the ceremony.  Cheryl Faulkner, Wedding Director at Cumberland Presbyterian,  did an awesome job and Grafe Studio, Florist, had beautiful arrangements.  We always love working with Sound Force who provided the reception music.  Bruce Clark selected some wonderful ceremony music and we heard him play the harp for the first time at a wedding.  The food was exceptional catered by Gary Klein at Baylor.  Good job everyone!
