Beau + Jourdan

filed in:

The next two weeks are PRIME time for fall colors. The trees are BRIGHT and the light is soft. It’s amazing. As Jill and I prepared for the wedding day to begin, we talked about portrait locations and the opportunities were endless. Bright trees, water, glowy light… it was just an overall beautiful day! Beau and Jourdan were married on Friday at the Stonewall Golf Club in Gainesville, VA. The patio where the ceremony took place overlooks the course and a lake….it’s a perfect setting for a small, intimate wedding. As guests arrived and the music started playing, the bride and her girls prepped inside the clubhouse. Now this bridal party wasn’t just any bridal party,

 

one of the flower girls was the daughter of the bride and groom… and she is PRECIOUS. Riley is a young flower girl but she did her job so well. She made her way down the aisle grinning from ear to ear.  After she gave her daddy a smile and tried to hand off her basket, the doors opened and it was Jourdan’s turn. She was stunning. Absolutely stunning. After their engagement pictures a few weeks ago, I knew she would look AMAZING but wow! She looked incredible!!! And as Beau saw her for the first time, I think he would agree!!

 

Beau and Jourdan had an amazing wedding day. Perfect weather, an amazing party and I have the pictures to prove it!! Enjoy a post of my favorites and congratulations to the Mr. & Mrs.!!!!

Her dress was amazing! Love this! Her sweet baby girl! Ha! She cracks me up. lovely!!
