Kendrick and Paul are two busy people. With both of them in grad school and planning a wedding, it’s amazing these two have any time to have fun, but that’s exactly what we did during their engagement session.

While we were at Cleveland Park in downtown Greenville, SC, not only did we get some great shots of Kendrick and Paul, but we also got a great bridal portrait tip from Kendrick.

But we’re not going to share.

Just kidding! Of course we have to share this! Too many winter brides will appreciate this not to. Kendrick told us about brides sticking Therma Care Heat Wraps to their body during the cooler (or downright cold) months to fight the chill during bridals or weddings. A few brides have tried this out and raved about how great it was. So thanks Kendrick!

Just a short trip from Greenville, SC to our main office in Walhalla and you can visit this great park! With the river, a beautiful waterfall, hiking and camping, Chau Ram was a beautiful backdrop for Garland’s bridal session.

Come back soon for a peek at Garland’s wedding to Daniel!

Well, those aren’t the exact lyrics, but for Mary Frances and Austin, there certainly was joy in their smiles as they exited their wedding ceremony to the beloved Christmas carol. A Christmas wedding at Mary Frances’ childhood church, Fort Hill Presbyterian in Clemson, SC, was the only place she could ever imagine getting married and that was enough for Austin.

This well mannered groom made a great first impression on their first date, and Austin knew he “had a keeper” as they bonded over wine. It’s a good thing too since he freely admits he had been Facebook stalking her for weeks

These two are excited to start off their new lives together and seem to be on the same page about their futures, enjoying each other and maybe a few rug-rats (2 boys and a girl, according to Austin) – good luck with that Mary Frances!

So check out their beautiful wedding below with a fabulous reception at the Madren Center in Clemson, SC.

Chicago was amazing…the weather was perfect, tulips were blooming all over the city, and the restaurants were fabulous (you have got to try The Girl and The Goat if you’re ever in the area).

On foot, by bus, and by mob bus. Lindsey indulged my morbid curiosity and we spent one afternoon riding around on a cheesy but fun tour of all the old hideouts and shootouts for people like Al Capone.

But one of our favorite experiences throughout the city were the views. The architecture is so beautiful and to have the chance to head up 97 floors in the John Hancock Building to watch the sunset is an opportunity we had to take advantage of. We wanted to share a few of our favorite shots of the city with you guys. Keep in mind that these photos were taken with our very special, super high tech camera…the iPhone.

Millennium Park- the Self Portrait

97 floors up

It was crystal clear, and then the clouds started rolling in.

I think the clouds made this sunset even more fantastic.

But let’s start at the beginning.

Like how they met at a Clemson tailgate and Lauren told her friend that she had met the man she was going to marry. Mills was equally impressed.

Throw in some more football games, a dash of traveling all over the world, and just a pinch of beachside fun with friends, and you have the makings of an incredibly fun couple.

They started off with a very sweet ceremony held at the Charles E. Daniel Chapel at Furman University, and really cranked it up after their first dance. Enter in DJ Bryan Mahanes with his crazy crew and outrageous costumes.

Breakdancing. Need I say more?

So if that’s the case, the Paige and Austin started their marriage off on the perfect day! Even the rainy weather couldn’t stop these two from having the wedding of their dreams. Surrounded my family and friends, Paige and Austin were married at the beautiful First Presbyterian Church in Spartanburg, SC and their sweet ceremony was followed by a Party (yes, with a capital “P”) at the always fabulous Piedmont Club.

After a lot of fun, a very tasty piece of cake and a sparkly send off, Paige and Austin bid farewell to single life and drove off into the night as Mr. & Mrs. Eckles. Be sure to leave a comment for the newlyweds and help us wish them all the best!

When I first met Kaylyn, I thought she was the sweetest bride ever and I thought that this Adam fella has got to be one of the luckiest grooms out there. Then I got to meet Adam, and I saw the way he looked at her and realized… he knows how lucky he is. He certainly didn’t need anyone to tell him.

Lots of smiles.

Goofy groomsmen (so much fun!)

A beautiful ceremony watched by loved ones. Tears were cried, that’s for sure.

And the craziest group of people to dance with. Hands down.

So much fun!

Enjoy Kaylyn and Adam’s wedding day and join me in wishing them all the best!
