We started off the day with getting ready portraits at a nearby hotel with the groom & groomsmen. After that, we head over the wedding venue for the day – the Athens Cotton Press!
This venue has a super cool & industrial warehouse space!
Once we arrived, we began taking portraits with the bride & her 12 bridesmaids – followed by some solo bridal portraits.
Reception Decor at the Athens Cotton Press
After portraits concluded, we had some time to focus on all the finished wedding reception decor! As a dimly lit warehouse space, we had to add in additional lighting to get the best images!
We loved the hanging lanterns and hanging florals! The string lights also added a warm touch to this industrial wedding venue.
A Wedding Ceremony at the Athens Cotton Press
Because Athens Cotton Press is a dimly lit warehouse space, it is CRUCIAL to photograph with camera equipment that can handle the low light levels!
We loved the symmetry in this ceremony space!

Once the ceremony concluded, we took family portraits by the altar, and then head outside for some fun bridal party photos!

Shortly after the sun set, the bride and groom were introduced inside! We loved how this gorgeous industrial warehouse space was lit up at night! We added in additional lighting when necessary to light our bride and groom and their guests for their reception photos!
