A pink Southern wedding at NorthRiver Yacht Club in Tuscaloosa Alabama

I love that every wedding is a little different, but a little familiarity is nice too. As Lauren got ready to step into her Judd Waddell gown at First United Methodist Church… a bride at a first united methodist church wedding in tuscaloosa alabama detail shots at an alabama wedding in tuscaloosa alabama …I had a little bit of deja vu – except this time, sister Amanda was the matron of honor instead of the bride, and spunky mom Katie was snapping pictures with her iPhone. 🙂 a bride getting into a judd waddell gown at a tuscaloosa alabama wedding a bride at a first united methodist church wedding in tuscaloosa alabama The bridesmaids wrote love notes on the bottom of Lauren’s shoes……while Russ and his groomsmen wore ribbon pins in memory of his friend (and honorary groomsman) Mike:The bride’s uncle Joe just happens to be a bagpiper – what better way to kick off the start of the ceremony AND the start of the reception while we took a little detour to shoot a few portraits in the gardens at NorthRiver Yacht Club?Accent was responsible for people getting down……while Russ’ “little” brother Vaughn showed everyone how to get up:Lauren & Russ: I hope your Antigua honeymoon had less mosquitoes than those gardens (the pictures were worth the bug bites). 🙂 Thank you for everything and have an amazing time in AZ!
