Mark and Alex’s Central Christian / Marriott Griffin Gate Wedding

Mark and Alex were married at Central Christian Church in Lexington. Their reception followed at the Marriott Griffin Gate Resort and encompassed all of the main ballrooms. It was truly a Cinderella story event. Every now and then you get a couple who come along and touch your life, Alex happens to be one of those brides for me. Over the course of the past year I have had the privilege of getting to know her and it was my honor to share in her and Mark’s wedding day.

For Mark and Alex their family is their #1 priority and it shows. There were SO many special touches everywhere you turned I was in tears many times. I think my favorite was that her bouquet was created by a family friend and each piece had a story. The long dangling pieces of greenery are actually cut from the cherry tree that was given to her by her aunt when she was born. How cool is THAT?

Instead of bouquets, her bridesmaids carried hurricane lanterns for their candlelight ceremony which created a surreal glow at the altar. I think with the number of bridesmaids that they could have turned out the lights completely and had enough light to light the room… LOL. In all seriousness… it was big fun and we count it our privilege to have been a part of their rehearsal and wedding days!

Congratulations Mark and Alex and best wishes on a beautiful life together!

Ryan & Danelle’s Wedding Photographs (Central Christian and Talon Winery)

Ryan and Danelle were married on January 12, 2008 at Central Christian Church in downtown Lexington. Their fabulous reception followed at Talon Winery off Tates Creek Road. It was a total blast. I think that Ryan and Danelle definitely will hold the record for largest wedding party for a while to come … all told there were 24 member of the bridal party!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY COW!! It was so fun getting try to new things. We had hoped for snow alas we were on the opposite end of the spectrum.. I believe it was close to 60 degrees… I guess if there was no snow then our second choice was a GORGEOUS blue sky and a nice sunny day!! I don’t know that I can choose one thing about their wedding day that was my favorite! They had a KILLER cake done by Sugar Forest , gorgeous flowers by Ivory Rose, awesome food by Sam Sears and the crew at South Van Catering, the coolest Dodge Charger limo EVER by Celebrity and Boss Limos and of course one of our favorite locations Talon Winery!

We have spent the past few months getting to know Ryan and Nelle and they truly are two amazingly fun people!! Ryan happens to be a Neurologist at UK so unfortunately we get to see him a lot more than we had hoped but that is fine by us… he brings us chocolate so its all good! Ryan and Danelle- we wish you two all the best in life. We hope that this is just the beginning of a long, amazing and happy life together!
