Jackie + Rik – Wedding

Jackie and Rik knew they wanted a super small, destination-type wedding to share with only their very closest friends and family. Rik had an old childhood memory from a vacation in Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga, TN and suggested the spot to Jackie. The rest is history! Jackie and Rik had an extremely intimate ceremony and celebration and we were so blessed to be a part of it. Although we only spent two hours with this couple and their sweet guests, we still got TONS of amazing shots. Let the story begin…

Jackie planned many of the unique details of the big day on her own. While she was getting ready, she was a frenzy getting dressed, giving direction about the decorations and flowers, and just trying to BREATHE!  She had an amazing group of women around her as she waited for the ceremony to begin. Check out her bouquet – we loved the vintage look to it.

Rik was super patient as he hid in a neighboring room waiting for the whole thing to begin. Mandi, Rik’s sister, was his Best Man-di (get it, Best Man-di?!) and she kept him company while he waited. Check out the ring bearer – how cute is he?!

Absolutely stunning! We loved Jackie’s necklace – a piece she designed on her own and then had made for her big day

Rik is styling and profiling – we loved, loved, loved the gray suit with the pastel accents.

The ceremony begins!  Jackie looked absolutely amazing as she headed down the stairs to the ceremony site with her father.

The ceremony site was absolutely breathtaking – it was a small clearing right on the edge of Lookout Mountain.  It was a beautiful day with gorgeous scenery, which obviously means gorgeous pics! Check out the pouch the flower girl used as she tossed petals down the aisle – we loved it!

The scenery and light was absolutely picture perfect, and we can’t get enough of the shots in these woods. Jackie and Rik each had their sister’s stand next to them during the ceremony.
