Andrew & Morgan’s wedding day at one of our favorite places, Windsor Manor, was full of joy, humor and a great group of people who know how to have a good time. This gorgeous garden party wedding day in Augusta, GA was full of so many small stories and fun moments that we were honored to capture through both photo and video.

The day itself started with the details and girls getting ready but, once everyone was ready, we started with first looks with Morgan and her girls first. You can see in the photos alone that their reaction was an adorable and fun moment for them all to share. Just a minute later, we the did a few bridal portraits before setting up Andrew for the first look where they shared an intimate moment just before doing some of the wedding party photos and then getting ready for their ceremony. During their ceremony, they shared vows and rings then sealed the deal with a kiss then walked out as Mr. and Mrs. Paulk and that then led straight into family photos and their couples portraits. As the sun was slowly setting behind the trees, they were announced into the reception for their first dance which kicked off dinner the rest of the reception for the night.

After their dance, everyone hopped into line to eat dinner which led into the cake cutting, the Macarena, bouquet toss and a ton of fun photobooth photos for everyone. The night then ended with a ton of dancing, drinks and a fun glow stick exit where everyone involved had a big smile on their faces. We are so happy to have been a part of this wedding day and know that there’s big things ahead for the Paulks!

We originally met with Kyle and Jessica back in September via Zoom and learned about when they met in the Army 12 years which first led to the decisive moment of him proposing at Universal Studios which subsequently leads us to this beautiful wedding day at Windsor Manor full of smiles, icing each other, beautiful vows, some great toasts and vivid shades of Jessica’s favorite color, pink.

The wedding day itself started off with us meeting the new venue manager/on sight coordinator, Christine as well as our friend Mallory of Honeycomb Florals to say hey briefly since we arrived early. That then lead straight to us getting into gathering details while saying hey to Jessica and all of her girls, as we were getting into the details downstairs, Kyle also showed up which worked out perfectly for us to grab the rings and a few other things which is where we heard about the first “icing” of the day which is a prank but, we won’t go into the details of that here. Once we finished details, we split up some while I did photo and video of the venue and the girls (Morgan and Bella) worked on getting the dress setup and also getting some of the makeup process taking place. The guys started to finish up getting ready so we got Jessica’s letter and gift for Kyle and set him up to read and open in the more quiet room for video reasons but, he opened a really nice watch and loved it and may or may not have gotten choked up some reading the letters. We then did the same for Jessica after getting photos of everyone in their robes together on the couch and had her read and open her beautiful necklace as well which her Mom came and helped put it on right after. The guys all made their way outside with Bella and I to do their group photos while the girls were getting dressed which then led straight into doing the first look for Jessica and Kyle. Guests started showing up pretty early so, we opted to do the first look inside by the stairs and they shared a beautiful moment just before ceremony time.

The ceremony started off with the groom and groomsmen all coming from the side just after some of the family and that was followed by everyone else coming down the aisle where their kiddos seemed to enjoy their moment coming down too which led straight into Jessica and her Father coming down the aisle. In that moment, Kyle was holding back tears and they were both so happy as she got closer and closer. Once they shared their I-do’s and finished off the ceremony with a kiss, they made their way back up the aisle together as husband and wife with their family and loved ones trailing just behind to the family formals location. Here, they were met with their glasses for a celebratory drink together. We then photographed all of their formal photos and some romantic golden hour couples portraits just before heading into the reception.

As everyone entered into the reception, they were greeted with cheers as the DJ Mike announced them in which was followed with some dance moves by some of them. As the newlyweds came in, everyone cheered and they went straight into their first dance followed by the Father-Daughter dance. The next part included a pasta bar so, you can imagine that we loved that and Delectable Delights knocked it out of the park with the delicious food. As everyone finished up eating, we then went into the loving toasts by both the Best Man and Matron of Honor who are family and had a ton of stories and loving sentiments to share with everyone present. We also cut the cake and then the dance floor opened up where everyone had a blast and a few will for sure make some fun moments in the wedding film with how much they enjoyed the cameras. The night ended with the glowstick exit and cheers of everyone present and we left with a big smile on our faces for how beautiful the day was. We’re excited for their sweet family and know they have a fun adventure ahead with each other!

Back in the Spring, we had the chance to meet up with Andrew and Samantha in person for the first time at their engagement session which you can see here. It was so much fun and the fact that we were able to include their sweet pup Stevie which you will notice he shows up in some details in the wedding since he stayed home on the big day. The wedding day itself took place at one of our favorites, Windsor Manor, where we got married back in 2018 ourselves and every time we get to visit, it’s so special and we have such a kinship with the couples in having similar taste already and this couple is just so sweet and we have loved the entire process of getting ready for this wedding day with them!

The wedding day itself started with us showing up and saying hey to Samantha and everyone getting ready in the bridal suite and then gathering details to photograph which is also where we got to formally meet the coordinator Justine as well and she helped even with some of the details in the midst of juggling doing a ton of other things as well and we loved talking with her. Once we finished with details, we poked our heads back in and said hey to Andrew and his Groom’s team also as they were all showing up. Once everyone was ready, we set up for their first look for photo and video really quick with just Morgan and I covering it. Once they had a short sweet moment together, we hopped straight into some couples portraits before getting the wedding party together and they made their way inside to do one more practice of their first dance together inside which made for a great photo op as well! At that point we also had the finished cake nearby to photograph and some other details then before long it was time to setup for the ceremony and get in place as guests were showing up. As the ceremony started, the song selection was immaculate and a lot of the wedding party danced their way in a little down the aisle which would be better seen in the video later and would have been a ton of photos to include here. From our understanding, this was all a passion project of Samantha’s for the songs and then it switched from the upbeat songs to the beautiful song “Turning Page” by Sleeping at Last as Samantha and her parents came down the aisle and Andrew only got a little misty eyed but had a huge smile on his face which would later change during their vows and the story he told about the courage that Samantha has given him to overcome things in his life and the way that she loves him and really all of the vows and stories were beautiful and I am pretty sure everyone shed a little bit of a single tear at least. As they exchanged all of their vows and rings, they then finished off the ceremony with a kiss and making their way up the aisle as Mr. and Mrs. Jones.

After the ceremony, we all met up together to do the family formal photos and full wedding party as well as just a few more couples portraits with the Golden hour light since we were ahead of schedule on everything and then it was time for Samantha’s dress to get bustled so they could make their way to the dance floor for their first dance which was so well done with the Ballroom Dance Center being great dance teachers and it all ended with a nice dip towards everyone at the reception. It was then time for the Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dances, a delicious BBQ dinner and then we made it to an open dance floor for a while followed by cake cutting which apparently was something they had been waiting on in excitement for a while in the planning and it turned out beautifully and even had Stevie included in the decor on the cake table. It was worth the wait they said and they had multiple flavors so it was fun to see some guests wait in line for the next layer to get cut instead because they wanted it bad enough. From here, we got back into an open dance floor for the rest of the night and taking photos with the different tables walking around then ended the night with a fun glow stick exit surprise before going back into dance some more where Mike from Magic Sound Productions did an amazing job as always so it was a ton of fun to see him again. From here, it came to time for us to leave and so we got to say goodbye to everyone and congratulate them again. We of course cannot wait to see what the future holds for them and Stevie as they start this new chapter together officially!

Back in December when we first met with this sweet couple, we learned about their big day at one of our favorite venues, Windsor Manor, as well as some of their story as a couple. They met in highschool and dated for a few years. Then she went off to college in Savannah for 7 years and then moved back to the Augusta area and they’ve been inseparable ever since!

The wedding day was overcast most of the day which made for a good bit of humidity but, it was perfect for photos since everything was even lighting. Once we arrived and made our way to the bridal suite, we said hello to everyone and started with details right away. We absolutely loved all of the little details that they came with and Dalton’s peacock bow tie was a super great pop of color to include. Once we finished the details and did the photos of the girls in their robes, we got Dalton to start getting ready for them to exchange letters. As he was finishing up getting ready with his guys, we did a first look with Amber and her girls which made for some super sweet moments in the photos. Right after that we did the first look with her dad and the letter exchange. One of our favorite parts of the day was the letter exchange (which was funny but you may have to see the video later for that) and letter reading where we had some one on one time and got to hear what they wrote for each other which was so sweet. At this point we had all of the girls ready and together so we did their group photos quickly as well as a few bridal portraits. Next was the guys turn for their group photos and then into the ceremony as everyone lined up. The ceremony from the start already had so much joy as Dalton gave everyone fist bumps down the aisle (including me) which was a great start. Once everyone had made their way down the aisle, it was time for the bride. The pure joy on Dalton’s face when he saw her was contagious and we found ourselves smiling the entire time. Once they said their vows and kissed, Amber gave a little “raise the roof” gesture and everyone was cheering for the newlyweds as they made their way back up the aisle as husband and wife. It’s at this point that we switched into family photo mode to try and quickly get everything needed so the family could go start the party a little bit. Once all of that was finished, we did a few fun photos with the whole bridal party and of course the couples portraits that we love doing. At this point, we were a little bit ahead of schedule so they brought the bridal party some drinks on a tray as Amber was having her dress bustled for the reception. We made our way over to the reception to prepare while taking a small breather of our own.

This reception was an absolute party that was so much fun to be a part of. From the very beginning announcement for the entire wedding party, they all danced their way in, each with a fun twist. We wanted to include more of those in this blog post but, there’s so many good moments that it would have made the blog post very long and taken longer to organize so, maybe be on the lookout for those in Amber and Dalton’s posts soon. As the newlyweds made their way into the reception, they danced right over to have some of the wedding party where they were handed drinks. They each took a sip and started their first dance where they shared so many adorable facial expressions showing their love and just laughing at each other or themselves in a series of small moments. They then transitioned into the Daddy/Daughter dance and the photo of Amber looking at her dad and the joy and proud expressions on both of them showed how much this moment meant to them both. As they finished and Mother/Son dance started, we knew to be prepared for them to break out into a fun choreographed dance but, that was about all we knew. We knew in our heads that they would probably face the crowd then and we need a wider angle lens just in case they were moving a lot which worked perfectly. I don’t know how else to explain the dance they went into after their traditional slow dance besides just fun. There will be more on that in the highlight film for sure. At this point, the party was going and everyone started to dance a little bit or migrated to watch the game on their outdoor TV setup so they could keep up with what was happening. After a little time had passed, we did the cake cutting inside with a few people and the speeches as well. There were two great and heartfelt speeches given by their Best Man and MOH. We also did the bouquet toss and garter removal/toss which also had a lot of fun moments that were hard to narrow down for the blog. At this point, the party was in full swing and everyone was drinking and dancing. The last few photos show this sweet moment where Amber requested a song that was in memory of her late brother, Hunter and everyone surrounded her dancing which led to a moment where she felt so overwhelmed that she got teary eyed and everyone hugged her (I’m not crying, you’re crying). We then ended our time with them doing a fake sendoff with some fun white ribbons that everyone waved around as they made their way down the line and stopped for one last kiss surrounded by their loved ones. We then found ourselves in conversation with his Mom and got to say bye to everyone on our way out. It was an honor to be a part of this beautiful day and we’re so excited for what the future holds for Mr. and Mrs. Williams!
