There are so many details from Courtney and Jordyn’s wedding day that I’m excited to share. For me, it’s those little, unstaged moments that make wedding days (well, really, all of our days) special. Things like:
-Courtney not being able to read the gift from her bridesmaids without bawling
-Jordyn’s best man dusting off her shoulders after she put her jacket on
-Every single hug & kiss Courtney & Jordyn received from their parents
-Jordyn’s reaction to seeing Courtney walk down the aisle
-Courtney’s concern for beer placement during their bridal party photos
-The random guest dancing in the background at the 11:40 mark
-Courtney making sure her grandma got to boogie with everyone at the reception
-The worm
-Smirnoff Ice
But my absolute favorite part of the day is right around the 4 minute mark of their highlights film where Courtney did a first look with her dad and with Jordyn. It was one of the sweetest first looks I’ve ever filmed and it still gives me the warm and fuzzies every time I watch it. I’m so grateful that I got to be there to capture their wedding day, full of sweet, fun, happy, and emotional moments.

I am so pumped about working on Courtney and Jordyn’s wedding films! It was legit hard squeezing so much awesomeness from their wedding day into 1 little preview film, but there is so much more to come. Here’s a sneak peek of their beautiful wedding day at Holland Farms.

Sometimes you plan a beautiful Destin beach ceremony, and then Mother Nature and the state of Florida have other plans. Morgan and Cody were supposed to get married at Henderson Beach State Park but a tropical storm closed all of the state parks so they moved their ceremony to The Henderson. When it comes to the weather, there is just nothing you can do about it and you have to go with the flow, and that’s exactly what Morgan and Cody and their friends and family did. They were all smiles and cheers and you never would’ve known this was Plan B. Their ceremony was beautiful (and dry!) and I’m glad I was there to capture it for them.
P.S. This is actually the 2nd time I’ve filmed a wedding that was derailed by weather and moved to The Henderson. First of all, this venue is beautiful. But beyond that, they are extremely accommodating and helpful for last minute bookings due to the weather. I highly recommend them if you are looking for an indoor space to host a wedding or event in the Destin area.

I love elopements. They are so intimate and personal, and the couples always seem so happy and stress free. Samantha and Wes were definitely one of those couples. They had such a beautiful ceremony, full of smiles and laughs, and I loved being there, capturing every minute of it.

I am so excited to finally be sharing James and Katawana’s highlights film! Katawana and James were one of the most considerate and thoughtful couples I have ever had the pleasure of working with. They made sure that their bridal party, guests, and wedding vendors were all taken care of on their wedding day. They’re such a fun, happy couple, and they and their guests were so easy to film. Confession: this highlights film was only supposed to be about 10 minutes long but they were all such great people and they were so much fun, so I WAY overshot their wedding day (not sorry!). They had a beautiful ceremony at Dune Allen Beach followed by a reception at Tops’l Beach and Racquet Resort. Forever I Do Weddings did an amazing job coordinating the days events, and On the Edge Entertainment, combined with James and Katawana’s awesome wedding guests, made the reception so much fun.

Amy and Jesse had a perfect sunset ceremony at John Beasley Park in Fort Walton Beach, and there were so many gorgeous little details in their setup by Barefoot Weddings. Plus, their guest’s outfits all coordinated with their wedding color palette, and that is just the coolest thing ever. Amy was such a beautiful bride. Walking in sand, in a wedding dress, is no easy task and she glided effortlessly down the aisle. I also loved how her face lit up after they were announced husband and wife. Congrats to Amy and Jesse!

Last week, I had an amazing triple wedding week! I started off with Amy and Jesse’s beautiful Barefoot Weddings ceremony at Beasley Park. Here’s a little sneak peek of their wedding ceremony.
I think my favorite part of Ashley and Nick’s ceremony was that I didn’t see Ashley until she was walking down the aisle so I had no idea she would be wearing a purple wedding dress. I wish I could’ve seen the excitement on my own face – I love when weddings are special and unique, and Ashley and Nick definitely had one of those ceremonies. They were all smiles (and laughs) the entire time and you could tell they’re truly happy together.
