Getting Ready
We started off this gorgeous overcast day in a nearby airbnb Michael had rented out for his groomsmen to get ready in together! To see more photos from this part of the day, make sure to check out the slideshow at the end!
We absolutely loved this red barn aesthetic! Such a cool backdrop for a wedding day getting ready spot super close to downtown Roswell!
For their wedding day, Michael and his groomsmen wore light grey suits with dark navy blue ties.
After wrapping up the morning at the guys getting ready spot, we headed over to another airbnb house that the girls had rented out for their getting ready! When we arrived the girls were wrapping up their hair & makeup! We got a couple of images from Katie’s details from the day. To see more behind the scenes photos from this point of they day, definitely check out that slideshow at the end of this post!
The First Look
Katie & Michael opted to start their day with a first look! They wanted to get the majority of their photos done before the ceremony! A first look is a great way to extend the time you spend with family and friends on the wedding day once they arrive and the reception gets started!
Katie & Michael requested that some of their photos be taken at Old Mill Park – just around the corner from Ivy Hall! It’s such an incredible spot for photos! This image was photographed just outside the brick exterior of one of the buildings there.
And of course we had to get a photo on Vickery Creek bridge – one of the most iconic spots in Roswell Old Mill Park! There’s usually a waiting line to be able to shoot in this spot because couples love it so much!
Being an October wedding, it was a little chilly in the fall! Michael was so sweet and gave Katie his jacket to warm up for a few moments! (Ok, maybe we told him to because it would make for a cute photo op!) 😉
There was also a mild sprinkling of rain on their wedding day! We improvised and gave Michael one of our studio umbrellas to keep the bride and groom dry! Also made for a super cute photo op!
Bridal Party Portraits
After photographing images with Katie and Michael, their bridal party arrived! We started with some images with the bride and her bridesmaids! We were a huge fan of the teal green color picked out for the bridesmaid dresses! Absolutely perfect for fall.
The prompt for this shot was “let’s do an album cover shot!” This is what we got! Love the creativity we get when you get a large bridal party together!
Individual Portraits
And of course we had to get a solo portrait of the groom in his light grey suit and navy blue tie! Loved the brown button accents they chose as well! Very fall.
Katie was an absolutely gorgeous bride! We wanted to get a few quick shots with her and her beautiful bouquet! Loved the hot pink, burgundy, and purple colors in her flowers!
Absolutely stunning!
The Rainy Day Ceremony
It’s always such a sweet moment when the bride walks out with both of her parents to walk her down the aisle!
Got to grab those hugs in those last few moments before they give their baby girl away at the altar! For images from their Ivy Hall Roswell Wedding Photos Ceremony, check out the slideshow at the bottom of the post.
Reception Decor
Absolutely loved this gorgeous & chic wedding cake! We’re crazy about the gold foil accents and pink fresh flowers!
We’ve really got to hand it to Cakes by Darcy! This is at least the second wedding that we’ve gotten to photograph one of their cakes! SO much creativity goes into each one of their creations! This particular one the couple requested a ski slope for the groom’s cake! Such a cool idea! You can see the black diamonds, trees, and ski paths going down the mountain.
And of course we had to grab some interior photos of Ivy Hall as well! We love how they transform this space into the perfect wedding reception hall! The lit drapes hanging across the ceiling make such an impact.
The Send Off
At the end of the night, Katie & Michael’s guests sent them off in style with a confetti send off!!! The guests were very excited to grab fist fulls of the confetti to throw at the bride and groom! There are so many more great shots of this part of the evening in the slideshow below!
Night Time Portraits after the Reception
We’ve really got to hand it to Katie & Michael! Most couples wouldn’t care to stay after the wedding to get some additional creative night time portraits done. But this car had special meaning to the couple. It was originally owned by Michael’s late grandfather. As a way to honor his memory, they wanted to include it in some of their night time wedding pictures! Absolutely loved how these shots turned out.
