Katie and Michael continued their celebration at Zen in downtown Greenville.  We were super excited to be back at Zen after shooting a wedding reception there last year!  There were hints of the south all around that party from the hydrangeas in the flower arrangements, the music the band played, and the drinks served at the bar!  It is good to be Southerner!

You could tell they were surrounded by family and really good friends.  The guests danced the night away and laughed a whole lot!  One of our favorite parts to watch was the photo booth they had set up.  From what we could tell everyone LOVED getting in the photo booth, both young and old!

Thank you Dillards and Holbrooks for allowing us to share your wedding day with you!!!  We had an amazing day, and wish Katie and Michael many years of happiness!

Did you happen to catch how the flowers in the cake coordinate with the detail on Katie’s dress?

I L.O.V.E. this picture that David took below!  OMG (that means Oh, My, Goodness) the faces in the background are cracking me up!  From pure delight and happiness to intensity to get the shot – it kinda covers it all!  You two are SO loved!!!

I met Katie and her sweet sister and mother for the first time a few weekends ago in Greenville, SC.  Katie’s sister, Laura, is friends with one of my dear friend, and through the power of connection and our amazing web of support they had us up to Greenville for Katie’s wedding day!  I did not feel like I was going into the day unprepared though, emails and phone calls with Besty and Laura early on had me at ease, and by the time I was in the hotel room we were all having a good time and getting to know each other well.

I spent the morning with the ladies downtown at the new Marriott on Main Street and David soon followed to meet Michael and the guys for some downtown photos.  Michael and Katie were married at Pretty Place Chapel outside of Greenville.   This was hands down one of the most beautiful overlooks we have visited!  One of the nicest parts of the trip up there was how they coordinated buses for the long drive between venues.  We had a blast on the way back down riding with the entire wedding party!

Y’all, I am beyond words for how great this day was!  I have even decided to break the post up into two parts, so keep an eye out for more coming very soon!  If you would like to pre-register to see all the images when they are released please sign the guest book at http://pictage.com/821422 and you will be notified when they are live online.

Stay tuned for the reception at Zen and more from this amazing day!
