Kelsey & Mitchell

A Paducah Kentucky Wedding

You know you’ve chosen a solid team to implement your wedding when everyone is emailing back and forth for two or three weeks leading up to your wedding, making sure everything is perfect, that there are no surprised, and that everyone is agreeable to the plan. As a wedding industry professional, I know I LOVE being a part of that kind of team! When you hire the best, you don’t have to worry about the rest 😉

As according to plan, Neil and I arrived at Kelsey’s parents’ home to photograph bridal details and the girls getting ready. I found beautiful light streaming through the windows in the family music room and hunkered down while Neil hung out with the girls as they watched one of everyone’s favorite shows, Fixer Upper! The girls’ morning was completely opposite of most weddings – everyone was ready and running ahead of schedule and essentially just waiting on me, therefore, everyone was able to relax and enjoy each other’s company! Which, for Kelsey and her bridesmaids, meant time to watch Joanna and Chip work their magic on old homes! And when I finished up bridal details early, we were able to jump right into the rest of the day without delay. That set the tone for the rest of the day and everything from portraits to getting to the reception went smoothly.

While I greatly appreciated and enjoyed having two separate Bride & Groom Portrait times (before AND after the ceremony, for the win!!!), I have to admit that that wasn’t my favorite part of Kelsey & Mitchell’s Day! It was probably either our chill time hanging out with the ladies while they got ready OR Kelsey and her dad’s choreographed father-daughter dance! Scroll through my favorite images from the day and check out how much fun they, and everyone at their wedding, had!
