I had the honor of photographing Kristina and Ryan's beautiful wedding day last weekend and it was even more special because it was the very FIRST wedding ever held at Broadfield Plantation! I actually didn't get to meet Kristina and Ryan before their big day which I don't normally do, but it was a destination wedding for them as they traveled all the way from Texas! It can be hard going into a wedding day without any context of personalities beforehand, but the second I met Kristina I knew we were a perfect match! The day started in the lodge with hair and makeup bustling and gorgeous bridesmaids clad in monogrammed fishing shirts! The fabulous Suzanne of We Tie the Knots had all of the details gathered waiting for me in Kristina and Ryan's cabin. I will admit that I was a little shocked when I walked in to see a giant water buffalo's head looking at me! I guess it was a hunting lodge after all! However with Kristina's elegant details you would have never known! We drove around the property for Kristina and Ryan's first look under a tunnel of large oaks with the bright sunshine filtering through the Spanish moss. It was absolutely breathtaking!! We had plenty of time for portraits before the ceremony which made it so much more relaxing since the sun sets so early now! As the day went on, it got much colder. We're talking like 40 degrees. Totally unusual for South Georgia this time of year so guests huddled by heaters to stay warm before dinner. However, once the dance floor opened up - everyone warmed up quickly! Guests enjoyed music from the Emerald Empire Band and late night grilled cheese (the best thing ever) before sending Kristina and Ryan off into married life under a tunnel of sparklers! Congratulations y'all, I hope you love these as much as I do!! Love this shot above captured by Ari Merritt! So thankful to have had her join me for the day!
