We got the chance to meet up with Jonathan and Katelynn at Starbucks in December back before everything turned into zoom meetings due to Covid-19. They had been shopping around for wedding related things around Augusta so it worked out perfectly to meet then and they were such a sweet couple from the start. We learned that they met at school and started spending a lot of time at the fair together and it was all downhill from there! He got his niece in on the proposal and obviously she said yes.

We were already excited to get there for the wedding day and had never been to Jackson’s Landing so it was a first (which is always fun for us). Once we arrived, we walked around the ceremony site really quick to get a feel for the area and met some of the other vendors. We then went into the newly built bridal suite (basically a separate house) and said hey to Katelynn and the rest of the girls before starting on details. We noticed some really cool old pink furniture in the other room and decided to use that for a decent amount of the details since it matched with their colors pretty well. Once we finished up with details we split off with Morgan staying with the girls and then I went to go do the venue details and meet up with the guys. They had already seen each other in their wedding attire previously so we got to have freedom of walking around before the ceremony some and doing a few of the photos that we would be doing after the ceremony typically. Once we got to the ceremony, everyone got to take in the stunning scenery and hear them exchange their vows. They kissed and walked back up the aisle together as happy as can be and we then went on to do family formals, some more bridal party and couples portraits. Once we got over to the reception they went straight into their first dance to kick off the party. Once they finished the formal dances the band kicked into their live performance and pretty much everyone hit the dance floor and had a great time! Come time for their send off, everyone lined up with bubbles and sent them off to ride away into the night as Mr. and Mrs. Fanning! It was such a beautiful wedding day and the rest of the #foreverfanning story is yet to be told but we’re totally here for it!
