Elizabeth and Jonathan had such a delightful wedding day. Out in the middle of nowhere Alabama lays a quiet and beautiful wedding venue with rustic charm and simple elegance. It was the perfect place for Elizabeth and Jonathan to become husband and wife. 

Right from the start of the day, you could tell how excited everyone was, especially Elizabeth, to finally see these two sweet people get married. Elizabeth and her girls happily sang songs and danced around the cottage waiting for time to get their dresses on and begin the day's festivities. 

Elizabeth looked so beautiful in her wedding gown and veil. Her dad’s tears and her bridesmaid's giddiness showed just how stunning she looked. At their first look, Jonathan couldn’t contain his overwhelming emotions and just buried his face into her neck. They both were crying happy excited tears. Just when you think that this couple couldn’t get any sweeter, they read letters to each other and the tears just kept coming. 

The ceremony was held in front of a large majestic oak tree with a lovely floral cross hung upon it. Their ceremony was very intentionally Christian and even had a moment for those who had not already, accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior. The songs that were sung and the officiant's words encapsulated Elizabeth and Jonathan’s hearts as they began their covenantal marriage with vows and rings. 

The reception was held just a few steps from the ceremony area in the gorgeous wooden barn. The food and cakes served were delicious and the DJ had no problem getting people out on the dance floor. Elizabeth and Jonathan even put on light-up shoes and danced away the evening with their closest family and friends. It was such a perfect day for this incredibly wonderful couple. 

Elizabeth and Jonathan were married on June 3, 2023, at Rockhurst Farms, in Wilsonville, Alabama.
