Lindsey & Brad - Wedding at The Stables in LaFollete - Jaclyn Paige Photography

I'm starting off this blog by posting a couple pictures from Lindsey and Brad's engagement session earlier this spring.  Aren't they cute?  After working with them for the afternoon I was super excited to capture their wedding day.  And what a gorgeous day it was!  We seem to have been stuck in a rainy weekend trend, but Lindsey and Brad were able to have their ceremony outdoors under a glorious sunny blue sky.  They started the day with their First Look.  Brad covered his eyes with a handkerchief while Lindsey walked toward him. When she reached him, she took off his blindfold and he was able to see her up close, all beautiful and bride-y, for the first time.  A First Look is a great way for a bride and groom to share some special time together before the ceremony, but still maintain the element of surprise that they would have experienced if they saw each other for the first time during the ceremony.  The bonus is that they get more time together on their wedding day, AND practically speaking, because we can usually get all their pictures done beforehand, they can enter the reception very soon after their ceremony and spend more time with their guests as well.  (Click on the First Look label at the bottom of this post to see other couples who made the same decision).  After an emotional and heart-felt ceremony, Brad and Lindsey celebrated with 250 friends and family before driving away in a sea of bubbles.  They chose The Stables in LaFollette for their ceremony and reception.  There's no website for this place, but this map will get you to their location.  It's such a unique and stylized venue indoors, with sweeping views and well-cared-for grounds outdoors. Joshua and I were honored and blessed to be a part of this special couple's special day.  Congrats, Honeycutts!  --Jaclyn
