Gorgeous landscaping with a stone-mossy creek makes The Mill at Fine Creek stand out from any other wedding venue. It has been a couple years since I have last photographed here and I was thrilled to return! Leading up to the big day, the weather forecasters were predicting rain all day Saturday. I was praying that this outdoor wedding wouldn’t be rained out and fortunately it ended up being a beautiful spring day!!! Whewwwww!!!
Jared and Kaitlin’s wedding was super laid back and everything ran as scheduled, which honestly doesn’t happen often. 🙂 We took some time of their wedding day to do bridals of Kaitlin and I am planning to share more through another blog post because I have WAY too many favorites!! I thought it was comical that when I was guiding the men for their groomsmen portraits, I had Jared stand in this one stance. Come to find out that Jared approved of that manly pose that he wanted to use it from there on out for the remainder of the wedding day, including some of the family formals. I couldn’t help but to laugh every time I saw him in the “jared pose”. Hahah!
The reception was one big party! Everyone was either crammed on the dance floor or dancing in their seat all thanks to the incredible and lively band, Three Sheets to the Wind! I had to laugh to myself because the band was SO good that for a moment I found myself starring at them to see if any lip syncing was involved … nope, they were just flawless! Overall, it was an incredible day with a wonderful couple, vendors and everyone who helped celebrate! A huge CONGRATS to Jared and Kaitlin!!!
Thank you Jared and Kaitlin along with your family and friends for an incredible time on Saturday! It was truly an honor documenting your fairytale day. I wish you nothing but the best!!! <3 Enjoy some of my personal favorites of your wedding day! xoxo!
Awww, a little mother/mother-in-law/daughter moment. 🙂
While the girls have been running around getting ready, this is what the men have been up to… They have it so easy!!! Haha!
She’s adorable! Love her smile!

As we tried gathering everyone for a group shot, the ring bearer decided it was time to turn on his engine and choo choo away. Haha!
Love the way he makes her smile. 🙂

This is cute! The ring bearer wanted to see through the lens of a videographer. 🙂 Haha!
