I LOVED this classy wedding at Rock Barn Country Club in Conover, NC that we photographed in the fall, it was very classy and Elegant. All day was just relaxed, fun, and filled with love. Both families were amazing as were the bridal parties. We arrived that morning not knowing anyone and left loving everyone. I love you all and I’m so grateful to be apart of this wonderful day. As you can see the Father Daughter Dance was SO emotional, her sweet daddy had Cancer but is in Remission thank God! I just love the family and hope to always keep in touch with them.

Abbi&Dusty Married Rustic Wedding | Hickory NC Wedding Photographers

So you remember Abbi and Dusty’s super cute engagement session at Taco Bell?! Their wedding was UBER fun! We LOVED photographing their amazing fun filled day. Abbi worked SO hard on this wedding for a year she did the DIY wedding and etsy filled weddind. Her Sisters and Dad also worked very hard getting the home she grew up in ready for this amazing back yard wedding. It had so many details that I just loved. It was rustic vintage but still so classic and just full of love and hard work that all paid off for amazing photography at this home turned into the perfect wedding venue. It was the perfect fall day in September the rain storms looked scary over “the valley” but luckily they held off.

Let’s start off with the details yes I grabbed way too many but in my opinion you can’t have too many details!

Her daddy was up ALL week before the wedding so he was more than exhausted when it came time for his baby girl to get married.

LOVE LOVE LOVED Their first look it was SO sweet and at times Hilarous just like Abbi&Dusty!

SUPER fun Bridal Party!

I loved the ceremony again sweet, funny and full of detail!
