Capturing this Pretty Place Chapel intimate wedding ceremony was a dream! These two and their families welcomed me with open arms to share in this joyous day. In addition to meticulous planning and preparation that truly paid off, the couple was blessed with a clear view of the mountains from the chapel, and a glowing sunset. This destination wedding at Fred W. Symmes Chapel in Cleveland, SC was one of my favorites this past fall! I had the opportunity to meet the bride, and mother of the bride in person prior to the wedding day. With destination weddings, this isn’t always the care, but a welcomed bonus! Seeing everything fall into place made it all the more meaningful. Brevard locals Anarie and Petal and Fern did a fabulous job with hair and makeup and stunning florals, respectively. Congratulations, Courtney and Greg! Thank you for trusting me to photograph your wedding day!

Brittany and Matt met in Texas, but it was in the Blue Ridge Mountains that Matt got down on one knee and proposed. They chose Trillium Links for their wedding venue, since it is right down the street from where Brittany's grandparents lived, and where she spent many happy times with her family growing up. The Blue Ridge Mountains are now a place that Brittany and Matt love going to together to create their own happy memories. We started out their wedding day at the lovely Old Edwards Inn & Spa in Highlands, NC where Brittany and her girls got ready together. Brittany looked flawless with her hair and makeup from Anarie! Old Edwards Inn offers a gorgeous mountain view and cozy quarters that were the perfect backdrop. For the ceremony, we traveled down the road to Trillium in Cashiers, NC and joined Brittany and Matt’s friends and family for an intimate ceremony with the blue ridge mountains in sight. Their friends and family all traveled to join them for their wedding day - some flying as far as from Australia! After Keith Norton officiated a sweet ceremony, we utilized the scenery for some portraits, and then started the reception. The entire evening ran so smoothly and all the details came together perfectly, thanks to WNC Weddings & Events! Benjamin Warner pulled out his drums and brought everyone out to the dance floor. Brittany and Matt didn’t stop smiling the whole day. Intimate weddings with mountain views are always a favorite!
