Huntington Beach State Park Wedding: Caroline + Brad

Weddings

9 Jun

I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of one of my cousin-in-laws (is that correct terminology?) last weekend at Huntington Beach State Park located in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina. After much thought and planning, Caroline and Brad opted for a beach wedding and I’m so glad they did! How beautiful it was! So… they made the trek, along with friends and family, all the way from Tennessee.

Brad and Caroline, it was my pleasure capturing your big day and I hope you enjoy this sneak-peek of what is to come! Many thanks to my pa-in-law for enduring the humidity and heat with the fellas to capture their side of the story!

Now this is what bridesmaids are for! What a wonderful group of ladies– you all were awesome! And a quick shot of the newly-weds after the ceremony

A fallen piece of tree + gorgeous ladies= a photographers dream!

And here we have the entire wedding party looking FAB!

Aww. She adores you Brad!

Now how fun was THIS. The ladies were so adventurous and even wanted to play in the water 🙂

And you know I have to add in how awesome the florist was! And not only did Kim Wehunt with All in the Details act as florist, but she also directed the wedding, made the cake, and catered the food for the reception. She even brought her husband along who played the steel drum at the wedding and was the dj at the reception! Check out some of the work provided by All in the Details. Each bouquet had a little ladybug– LOVE.

And for the viewers that do not know this couple, Caroline is an awesome performer and I know this because I’ve also had the pleasure of attending one of her showcases in Nashville. Here she is with her father cuttin’ the rug! Must be where she gets her moves 🙂 Love ya Johnny.

We love you guys and hope you are enjoying yourselves South of the border!

Stay in the know!

It’s a screenshot from a video filmed Saturday night in low-light on a smart phone, but it captured a core memory for me! 💜 We used to dance a lot; well before everyone had video devices with them everywhere. 😅👵🏼 This picture is such a treasure to me-  my forever dance partner! 🥰 Thank you, @pampamtee !!!

I’ve recently realized that most of my friends force me out of my comfort zone. 😆😆😆 And while I am not the best at voicing my thoughts a lot of times, I’m so very thankful for that in my friends! 

And it is no different for this girl! 

Find you a friend who says, (meanwhile, while we are planning a trip to Utah), “Oh! But let’s extend a couple days, rent a car, leave Utah and travel to Idaho for some sight- seeing to check that state off my list! And while we are there we may as well drive on to Oregon before flying back home. And possibly Washington if we have time!” 😳🤣 And so we did! (We didn’t make it to Washington, though.)

Or a friend when returning from a girl’s trip to Hawaii with a 4 hr layover in San Francisco says, “you know… we might as well hop in an Uber and go see the Golden Gate Bridge while we wait.”And already had the Uber lined up before I could think this through. 😆😅 

I knew of April in high school, and even vacationed with her family (friends also with her SIL) one Christmas to Dollywood, and thought, “now there’s a girl who isn’t afraid to just tell it like it is. I LOVE THAT!” 🤣 No wonder our lives have connected years later! And I’m SO THANKFUL FOR YOU!

Happiest of birthdays, @april_waddell_essentials ! Have the best adventure today!!!

Y’all… I really *am* thankful for friends in my life who push me out of my comfort zone. lol! And also plan adventures!!! I do think of the fun adventures in my head, but the planning part is NOT my forte. However, my pal Allison has it down pat! 🙌 She approached me several months ago about an overnight backpacking trip with her and her kids. I was reluctant, but I also have been slightly curious how it would be, since I’ve camped many times- just not by packing everything in on foot.  So, when she said it would be for only one night, AND we would have another gal along who had done it many times, I agreed! 

Well, two days before leaving, we had to pivot. 😅 Our ‘guide’ had a family emergency, and couldn’t go with us. So, our original plan for hiking the Blue Ridge Parkway had to be switched up a little, since we both knew nothing about it. We decided to add a little safety net and backpack into a primitive site at Jones Gap State Park instead. It was WONDERFUL! We camped beside a waterfall, and had the best time! 

Our backpacks were SLAM FULL. 😆 And we survived it! We all slept in hammocks. Well… I didn’t sleep real well actually because I FROZE (40ish degrees) even though I had on a short sleeve, a long sleeve, a sweat shirt, and a jacket all while inside a sleeping bag. 🤣🤦‍♀️ I definitely learned I need a hammock liner or something. 

Regardless, I would totally do it again! 🙌💜 So thankful for nature-loving friends!!!
