When I first met Samantha and Corey last December, I knew they were going to be so much fun to work with! Fast forward to April 8th, when their wedding day finally arrived. What a gorgeous day it was with a light breeze and plenty of sunshine.
Arriving at Burke Manor Inn, I joined Samantha and her gals while they prepared for the big day in the bridal cottage. Sarah, my second photographer, met the guys outside in the garden for some pre-wedding photos. Rather than doing a first look, Samantha & Corey decided to do a first touch before the ceremony. What a sweet moment it was!
The ceremony was held outdoors in the beautiful garden under an arbor. When Corey saw Samantha for the first time as she came up the aisle with her dad, the look on Corey's face was priceless. And I loved the sand ceremony - Samantha is originally from Texas so they mixed sand from Texas with sand from Florida, where Corey is from. I've only seen this incorporated several times at weddings and I just love this idea!
Immediately following the ceremony a reception was held in the tented pavilion on the grounds of the inn. A fabulous meal was served buffet style. Dancing, cake cutting, & toasts followed, ending the evening with the bouquet and garter tosses. Everyone truly had a wonderful time at Samantha & Corey's wedding! They were definitely a fun couple & Sarah and I truly enjoyed working with them.
