Rosemary Beach Wedding, 30a | Mark + Ashley

Ashley + Mark’s wedding day in Rosemary Beach was so sweet and beautiful. The focus of the weekend was about enjoying time with friends and family. They had a welcome bonfire the night before the wedding so everyone could relax and meet. So much good food and laughs that night.

It was a hot September day and the gigantic tent they rented to offer shade from the heat was an absolute lifesaver. It was great they had the tent as well for the downpour of rain that happened right after the ceremony. They also thought about staying cool in the reception and added fans so you could take a break and cool down before returning to the dance floor. Mark and Ashley really tore it up to the best live band I’ve ever heard.

I absolutely loved that Ashley changed into tennis shoes for the reception and Mark changed into more comfortable clothing for the reception. I always recommend being comfortable especially once the reception has started!

The day was beautiful with a focus on simple white decor with greenery. They had their children by their side at the altar which was so sweet.

All of the vendors did such an incredible job with bringing this beautiful day to life and it was such a stress-free day, for the couple at least ;) If there is one thing I have heard consistently from my couples on their wedding day is to hire a planner! Whether they are glad they hired one or regret not hiring one, it’s all the same.

Btw, someone please hire Townsend Catering Company so I can have their mini cheeseburgers again!

I would absolutely love to photograph another wedding with so many fun and unique details, definitely come say hi if you would like me to photograph your big day!
