Michael + Michelle

A Romantic Pastel Wedding | Mill at Fine Creek

filed in:

I have to admit that shooting at the same wedding venue two days in a row is the easiest way to shoot a double header weekend! We love being at the Mill at Fine Creek and so this was a fun weekend for us! Michael and Michelle’s engagement session was during one of the hottest days of the summer and so the slight humidity and heat on their September wedding day wasn’t bad at all!! It was easy for them! However, the part of the day that wasn’t easy was when Michael had to try to hold it together while his bride walked down the aisle to him!

Michelle looked stunning and she was radiant on her wedding day. They had a smaller wedding than the average 150 that we’re used to but I loved it. I loved it because you could really tell just how much their friends and family cherished them. People traveled far and wide for their day and even though it was a smaller amount of guests, the dance floor NEVER stopped!! It was evident that everyone had a BLAST and that Michael and Michelle were made for one another. Their story started at a simple costume party that was duck dynasty themed! It’s amazing that one decision to go to a party resulted in the two of them finding their soulmate! I love getting to be the one who captures stories like that! It was an honor to spend the day with them and I can’t wait to share my favorites from their wedding day!! Enjoy this summery, pastel wedding!!!
