Sally & Zac

This past weekend was yet another double wedding weekend for us. This time it was Friday and Saturday. Friday weddings are becoming more popular these days, but Sally picked the day based on my schedule and availability because she wanted me to shoot her wedding.....so I wasn't sure whether I should be flattered or very nervous! However, when I got there, it just felt sort of like I was around family in a way. Four of the people there were clients of mine....three of them I've shot more than one session for. So needless to say even though that was the first time I had actually met Sally, it felt like I had known her for a while! It was very strange for me being at a wedding with so many people there I knew...but strange in a good way! The wedding was held at a house in Easley and I don't think it could have been more perfect...not even the dress!

I love hanging jars with candles.
Although she was a little stressed and worried to start with, it didn't take long for a permanent smile to appear on Sally's face.
I can't say the same thing for Desi though!
The gorgeous bride!
Still smiling....

Ethan was really excited to be in the wedding!
The weather was nice....a breeze blowing...
blue skies....
But in the middle of formals a rain shower came through. Thankfully we were at a house that had a covered porch big enough for us to continue with pictures! Sally and the girls all looked so pretty!
Once we were done it had pretty much stopped raining so we headed around back to join the rest of the guests at the reception. The first dance.
The very yummy cake from The Purple Kitchen.
Normally the ring shot I post on here has both rings in it but this one is a little different. Sally's ring was made from her dad's wedding band....it was melted down and had diamonds added to it. I thought that was so sweet and very unique so I had to get a few shots of her ring by itself.
Finally...the groom! It seems the women were putting money in a basket to dance with him....not sure that Zac knew what else would come along with the dancing!
But, it wasn't long before Theresa cut in for her dance with him!
Now, here's a tip for the groom's out there. During the cake cutting....please remember that us girls only need a small (note the word SMALL) bite of cake...not the whole piece in our mouth!!!!
After the cake cutting I was able to get Zac and Sally away for some portraits by themselves.
I don't think Sally knew she was going to be tromping into the woods but she didn't seem to mind at all. I loved the light coming through the trees and hesitated to ask her, but she didn't care. I have to admit...this is my favorite shot of the day!
As nightfall began, the lights and candles were perfect!
Zac...still dancing with the ladies!
The DJ finally got all the couples up and dancing together....Gordon and Shannon.
Jason and Anna....see Jason, you weren't in EVERY picture I took!
Susan and Jeff...hey this is actually the first picture I've taken of you guys...usually it's Zack and Savannah!
I know these ladies put a lot of work into getting ready for Sally and Zac's big day but they did a fabulous job! They were ready to rest and kick their feet up!
Zac and his brother Todd signing some karaoke before we left for the night.
Sally and Zac, we had a wonderful time at your wedding. Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of such a special time in your life! I can definitely say that Dr. Crumpton has a great group of women working for him at his office and I know I am very blessed to have the opportunity to be a part of all of your lives! I hope that you two have a great honeymoon and enjoy being newlyweds!!!!!!
