Romantic Kentucky Wedding
Traveling to the South for Love
This actually wasn’t a Destination Wedding for the Bride and Groom, but it WAS a Destination Wedding for RSP! We were so excited when we were asked to travel from Michigan to Smiths Grove, Kentucky to capture this romantic, elegant barn wedding done right!
Dustin is from Kentucky and Katie is from our home state, Michigan. It was important to them to have someone they knew and were comfortable with to capture their wedding, so that’s where we enter the picture! We couldn’t agree with that more, because let’s be honest, we hang out with our couples ALL day, before the guests show up, after half the gusts leave, even before the wedding helping to plan all the little details, and after the wedding until your collection arrives. So- you want to love your photographers!
I love these calm moments before friends and family fill up the wedding venue. All the decor, colors, attention to detail… it’s all untouched and the whole feel of the day can shine! The Scotts got married at Elkins Grove, Smiths Grove, Kentucky. When you think barn wedding you think burlap, mason jars, shabby chic. This was far from that. This was homey elegance, cozy romanticism, upscale vintage. It was classy but still fun. It was emotional, but the happy kind!
The southern Wedding Ceremony was outside at sunset and the weather for a Fall Kentucky wedding was perfection. Friends and family gathered to watch this sweet couple tie the knot. The Reception followed inside. Even if you don’t take the time to read this, you can still “read” the beauty of the day in these images. They truly tell their love story just as the day was.
We always love to make an extra shout out to the other vendors of the day who helped bring the wedding together and even help bring a little extra something to our images!
