What’s better than a day of celebrating your new marriage with all of your friends and family? A WHOLE weekend to celebrate at Britland Estates, a gorgeous venue on the water with your family and bridal party…they arrived several days before their wedding day to spend time with some of the people closest to them, which was especially fitting for Lauren and Tyler, because they have the most joy-filled, funny and loving people in their lives! It was such a huge honor to get to be a part of celebrating Lauren and Tyler with all of them. The day started with all of Lauren’s girls and her mom having a dance party around her as she had her makeup done and ended with all of their friends dancing with them in a gorgeous tented reception behind the main house. It really was a perfect, non-stop celebration!

But the ceremony was my absolute favorite part of the day…I don’t know if there’s anything more beautiful than an outdoor garden ceremony! The garden is just off to the side of the main house on a lower tier by the pool and it really felt magical with the fountain in the front and the gorgeous trees and flowers all around. It was such a beautiful reflection of the Lord and His presence with them as they said their vows and began this new chapter together as husband and wife.

Lauren and Tyler, thank you so much for welcoming us with open arms and for having us be a part of such a sweet season and special day! It was such an incredible honor and I hope you enjoy a few of my favorites! Also, a huge thanks to Caroline for being my incredible second shooter and White Oak Weddings and Events!
