Park Crest Event Facility Wedding in Birmingham, Alabama

Courtney + Grayson

Let me start off by saying that I was SO honored Courtney and Grayson chose me to photograph their beautiful wedding in Birmingham. Their venue is a littler further than I typically travel, but I was more than willing to drive the extra miles for these two! Plus, Austin and I were able to turn it into a night away from home!

Courtney and Grayson are so sweet! Their faces light up the second they see each other which is so cute! Grayson was so excited to see Courtney for the first time during the first look and you can easily see the joy all over both their faces! We got very lucky with the weather! It was suppose to storm all day, but instead it was just lightly drizzling. The Gardens at Park Crest Event Facility are SOO gorgeous that Courtney and Grayson were willing to brave the on and off sprinkling rain to get some beautiful outside portraits and I’m so happy that they did!

Courtney’s bridal details could not have been more perfect! She planned everything to a T and even brought along special props and spare flowers for me to incorporate into these photos! It was amazing and helped her bridal details look elegant! (Plus, she even let me take a few things home to use for my next weddings!!)

Also, I need to take a moment to point out how stunning Courtney’s veil is!! She went with a full cathedral veil with a scalloped edge that she found on Etsy! Future brides - LOOK AT ETSY before ordering a veil from a bridal salon!! Courtney’s was so beautiful and for a fraction of the cost! Wearing a veil adds so many extra photographs that cannot be done without a veil. For example, the dip kiss veil toss that these two rocked would not have been as jaw-dropping without the beautiful veil flowing in the wind!

Their wedding ceremony was beautiful! I love that these two wanted their first act as a married couple to be communion. Taking a moment together to thank God for all he’s done in their lives was a beautiful moment to watch!
