What a beautiful wedding day at a gorgeous wedding venue! We arrived at Smokey Hollow for the ladies to get dressed and finished up getting ready. The girls were so excited to be a part of Christine and Mike's special day. Christine did a first look with her dad under the venue's covered porch followed by a first look with her groom just in front of the property's green house. The bridal party gathered on the lawn for photos and we finished up before guests started to arrive. Behind the ceremony set up was a beautiful table full of photos of family who have passed, during the ceremony there was a reflection off of one of the images that looked like the most beautiful star behind the altar and couple. Once Christine & Mike said their vows and did an entire family sand ceremony they had their first kiss as a married couple on the altar. This happened so fast I didn't see it in real time but going through their photos I was delighted at the look of excitement on their little girl's face as she showered them with the leftover petals in her flower basket. What a precious moment of their ceremony!
After family photos and a few minutes inside the Trolley, the wedding party kicked off with spirits on the lawn and music by their DJ. Family gathered for the couple's first dance, speeches by the bride's sister and groom's best friend followed by dinner and dances with Christine's father & Mike's mom. Friends and family danced the night away after a very lively bouquet and garter toss and ending with a sparkler exit in front of the venue.
Congratulations Christine & Mike, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!
