Gardenview Estate Wedding Venue // Abby + Luc

What an absolutely gorgeous day for Abby + Luc at the beautiful Gardenview Estate Wedding Venue.

These two human beings are simply incredible. They created a timeline that allowed for them to be present and enJOY! They did this by staying on site at Gardenview Estate Wedding Venue, doing family photos before their ceremony and purposefully leaving time to have a drink, hug and hang with their friends and family.

Their private vows were definitely a highlight. I always feel so spectacularly grateful to be present for this moment, and theirs was no different. Emotional, honest and heartfelt, these two are meant for each other.

Now this day was HOT! Like, hot hot haha. And so we utilized the many spaces at Gardenview Estate Wedding Venue to make sure we didn’t roast. Moving from shade to direct light back to shade, we were able to get a variety of photos. Their wedding party (and them) were such good sports, trusting me to do my thing. And though the full sun all day made for a sweaty Beth, it also meant we were rewarded with a juicy, clear sky for golden hour. Worth it.

Their friends and family were so. Nice. Doing the family photos early not only meant that they were able to greet all of them individually, but after their ceremony they were then free to chill and hug and hang with the rest of their guests too. This makes for such memorable candids and I just love it.

Speaking of their, ceremony, their friend, a pastor, married them. As he knew the couple, it was so enjoyable to listen to and made it even that much more special. When it came time to sign their marriage license, they had their first communion together as husband and wife. Again, it was unique to them and so special to share that with everyone present.

As for the reception? Laughter, tears, excitement and joy. Everyone was happy to be there and to listen to their parents and friends talk about their love (including me!). The florals by 3bs Flowers and the simple, but elegant greenery and decor was stunning. And once the sun goes sun, the Gardenview Estate wedding venue changes . The sky goes dark, the lights go on, and the celebration takes off, making for yet another beautiful aspect to this venue.

I adored this couple, and I adored this day, and I hope you adore their photos.
