I love photographing weddings at Riverwood Mansion. Ashley and Kirk’s wedding was the second wedding this year that I’ve gotten to photograph there. Ashley and Kirk came to Nashville from Georgia to get married so technically this was a destination wedding for them and their guests. Riverwood is the perfect destination spot and represents Nashville so well. I love seeing couples bring their families and friends to celebrate their wedding in Nashville!
Ashley and Kirk’s wedding day was the perfect marriage of elegance and fun. The details peppered around the Mansion were absolutely gorgeous (especially the flowers!) and complimented each other so well. Before Ashley and Kirk shared their first look, Ashley chose to have a first look with her father. This is something that I have really been encouraging and creates for some really beautiful, emotional moments between brides and their fathers. Ashley and her father’s first look was no exception!
The ceremony was absolutely gorgeous and was filled with both tears and laughter. Even though we had taken portraits with Ashley and Kirk before the ceremony we saved a little time after the ceremony during sunset for some more photographs of just the two of them. I’m so glad we did! These are some of my favorite photos from the day and this year! The light was absolutely magical coming through the trees in front of the mansion.
The reception was a lot of fun with the dance floor full the entire night. It was so much fun watching the bridesmaids fight over the bouquet and the groomsmen threw Kirk high in the air. We also ran a photobooth at the reception and the photos from it are absolutely hilarious! Enjoy these gorgeous moments from Ashley and Kirk’s wedding and join us in wishing them many years of happiness together! 😍📷
