This week the Atlanta Wedding photographers at Atlanta Artistic Weddings got to shoot an intimate micro wedding in Decatur for a great couple! The couple lived within walking distance to the Decatur Square, where you have the park and historic Decatur Courthouse. Their venue was centrally located to everything, which was awesome!
I started by taking photos of the guys while they were getting ready. They were working hard and the best man/ring bearer took his job very seriously. He knew exactly where the rings were and where he was going to keep them during the wedding to keep them safe. As you can see in the photo above, the best man made sure the groom’s collar and boutonniere were perfect. He wanted his groom to look good for the bride on this special day. This best man/ring bearer was a real pro and did a great job!
Then came the photos of the bride. She got ready at a hotel near the wedding location. This hotel is where the bride’s family was staying as well, so she had the love and support of family as she got ready for the wedding. The bride’s sister was right by her side and helped her to get in to the dress. The sister also helped with makeup and hair.
As I always say, my favorite weddings are the ones where the bride and groom make the wedding their own. This bride did not disappoint. After she put on the beautiful, classic, form-fitting mermaid cut dress, she put on her shoes. She chose comfort and style with some cool kicks that reflected the couple’s personality.
The ceremony took place at their community’s common area. They set up with a small group of chairs and had the wedding ceremony lit by candles. The candlelight was perfect for such a intimate wedding. The bride’s father walked her down the aisle to her fiancé. The guests who attended were all family and friends of the bride and grooms. The couple was truly surrounded by love!
After the ceremony, we took the family photos. Then, the couple and I took a quick walk to the Decatur Square where we took a few fun photos. They were such a fun and sweet couple. It was a great honor to be a small part of such a special day! Congrats Shaina and JL!
