The Wedding of Kristin & Joey

June 11, 2022, was the most magnificent day of their lives. Kristin and Joey got hitched on the antiquated golf course at Carter Caves State Resort Park. The couple picked the location as it was a local park in their area, and it held a special place in Kristin’s heart since she worked there for four years while completing her undergraduate degree. The golf course scenery was breathtaking, with rolling hills and lush green grass in the background. Kristin and Joey rented two adjacent cottages, one for the bride and her bridesmaids and the other for the groom and groomsmen. They arrived at the cottages at 8 A.M., and Kristin’s worst wedding day nightmare came true: it was raining! The ceremony and reception were scheduled outside at 5:30 P.M., so Kristin was worried about the weather.
Despite the rain, Kristin felt tranquil about the day. The bride and her bridesmaids were calm and enjoyed spending time together. Around 12:30 P.M., Kristin and Joey had their first look. Just before she stepped outside, the rain stopped, and the sun shone! Kristin will never forget the feeling of walking to see Joey on that day, and the photographer and videographer joked that they had never seen a bride run so fast to their groom! When Joey turned around, she noticed he was already emotional before he saw her. This is a moment they will cherish forever. Their first look was so special since it was the only time of the day they were alone and able to talk to each other. Kristin and Joey highly recommend First Looks to everyone now! It was such a surreal moment. As a bride, you spend so much time relishing in the little details of planning your big day that you often lose sight of how important the union between the couple is. The first look gave them time for themselves, their favorite memories from the day, and the best time for pictures! After the bride and groom pictures, they called their wedding party to join in, and then they had family pictures taken.
Kristin and Joey had around half an hour to kill before the ceremony started, so the wedding party and families mingled by the cottages until it was time for everyone to depart for the ceremony! At 5:33, Kristin’s dad walked her down the aisle, and Joey and Kristin were married in front of 170 of their closest friends and family. After the ceremony, they were declared Mr. and Mrs. and joined the reception under a tent on the ceremony site. They relished the best food, shared the best laughs with their Maid of Honor and Best Man’s toasts, mingled with their favorite people, and danced the night away. Kristin and Joey had a sparkler grand exit, and then they shared a private last dance to end their night. As they were dancing together, it began to pour rain! Everything at that moment felt right and made all the planning, stress, and excitement worth it. And where are they now? Living happily ever after!
