Exuding nothing but sweet southern charm, the Ariail couple were brought together in union at Pine Grove Baptist Church in Gillsville, Georgia. A few rain clouds (and showers) couldn’t hold this wedding back one iota. Jon and Alicia were such a joy to work with. It feels like just yesterday I was meeting with this lovely couple at Inman Perk Coffee for a lovely consultation on a chilly rainy day. They were so excited about their upcoming wedding day, and their peach/mint-themed plans were just imagination at the time. Finally the day that had been long awaiting was finally before us. Their friends and family — where do people like this come from?! Everyone, and I mean everyone, was so nice and inviting. They all made me feel like family. I had fun hanging out with Alicia, her family, friends, all six of her sisters at her parents’ home in Gillsville during bridal prep. After the bride and groom departed from their wedding guests, we went back to the Ariail home to get some golden hour photos if the two of them. Only to find out that the storms had knocked the power out at their house! You may call that frightening or inconvenient… I call it a romantic end to a wedding day. 🙂
