Amanda and Ben had a crisp October day for their outdoor wedding at Sandy Pines in Demotte. The golf course wedding venue was the perfect spot for the groom, an avid golfer. While he and the guys were out on the course, I was inside with the girls as they got ready for the big day.
I was greeted by Make Up by Krissy V. and Under the Veil as the stylists as well as the bride and her singing bridesmaids.

The bridal suite building is perfect for bridal prep as well as an upstairs area for groom prep. The kitchen is always well stocked and the gigantic Subway subs are always a fun prop for me.

We had two first looks in a row - first up was Dad on the porch of the bridal suite and then with the groom.

We then ventured out onto the golf course as well as the wooded areas surrounding it for photos of the bride and groom. From candid moments to dips on the green to showing off the bride’s dress from Something Blue.
We then returned to the bridal suite for wedding party group pictures.

The ceremony was “unplugged” which kept the congregation focused and involved and not on their cell phones. After Amanda and Ben were pronounced man and wife, we went onto the course for a few golden hour pictures as the sun set. Then it was straight into cocktail hour, dinner and then the dancing began.
