The weekend of April 27, 2019 was the weekend of literally the most gorgeous wedding El Dorado Arkansas has ever seen. I’m 100% convinced of it because Lane and Chase’s incredible El Dorado wedding day was absolutely everythingggg. From the historic First United Methodist Church with a beautiful soaring pipe organ and stained glass to the newly restored Griffin Music Hall with enormous windows and retro touches, it was just perfect. And especially because Lane and Chase have one of the sweetest connections that I’ve ever had the honor of documenting.

So many incredible people came together for these lovebirds to make their day amazing. I had a blast working with the guys from Plugged-In Creative (such great talent and great personalities to boot), and I absolutely adore how many small businesses they supported throughout their planning process! I’m so excited to share these photos with you!!

El Dorado Wedding Photographer

– Ballroom at I Street Photographer –

October is crazy season, ya’ll. I have weddings (yes, sometimes multiple) every weekend all over the state, and some things …like blogging… inevitably end up taking the back burner. This past October was no different! I was a Ballroom at I Street Photographer for this gorgeous couple and it could not have been any better. Chris and Andrea and their families were the kindest, most gracious hosts (I feel like I say that about all my clients; I’m blessed to work with wonderful people), the Ballroom absolutely sparkled as usual, Meg and Genoa and Cecilee and all the vendors did an absolutely breathtaking job on making the day so beautiful and smooth. Now scroll down and look at some of my favorite images from their wedding!

Speaking of the vendors, here are those that worked their tails off for Chris and Andrea!

Ballroom at I Street Photographer | Bentonville Wedding Photographer

Every year I have a select few weddings who really – and I mean REALLY – embrace color. Give them all the pinks and corals and greens and (in this case) navy!! Julie & Neal’s gorgeous Sassafras Springs wedding was just the perfect example of how to use color (go ahead and peep that Color of the Year Living Coral action).

The day of the wedding was unexpectedly cold. I know what you’re thinking – Spring in the midwest NEVER gets warm outside and then cold and then warm and then cold. Never ever. But I’m here to tell you that’s exactly what happened here. Shocking, I know.

But Julie and Neal were troopers. I mean, they were more than willing to put up with the chilly wind and light drizzle to get some gorgeous portraits. They smiled literally all day. They wrapped themselves right up in the love and happiness that was all around them and didn’t even feel the cold! Well okay, maybe they felt a little cold. Especially when we had been outside shooting for 20 minutes in the wind. But they sure didn’t complain!!

Julie and Neal’s vendor team did an amazing job on everything from the florals to the cake to the place settings. Everybody worked together so beautifully, and I’m so happy to give some credit to all the great people on the team!
