Brian and Lindsay: Part Two

At long last! Part Two of Brian and Lindsay’s gorgeous July wedding at the beautiful Gwyn Careg Inn. Now to see them in all of their wedding day glory! First, our stunning bride:

And her handsome husband-to-be!



We will revisit these two after the ceremony.

The Gwyn Careg Inn is just an incredible location for a wedding. The Inn itself is beautiful and the property is breathtaking. They have a Spanish garden where Brian and Lindsay chose to have their ceremony.

Gee--do you think he's happy to be marrying Lindsay?!

I love when couples add their own touches to the ceremony. Many couples light a Unity candle, others perform a sand ceremony–Brian and Lindsay used ribbon to represent their union. In keeping with their colors there was white, orange and green. They then braided the ribbons together to represent the joining of their families and the creation of their own new family.

Mr. and Mrs.!!

Once the ceremony was over and their guests were free to enjoy the property and the beautiful weather we had some time to do some portraits of the newlyweds and their gorgeous wedding party.

The wall of this garden was just so pretty. I could have shot here all day long! I usually keep my editing pretty simple but did try a heavier effect on this shot and I think it works for this setting:

I love to point out how awesome my second shooters are. And why having a second shooter is so great. While I took the shot above, Robin grabbed this one below. I love having different angles of a pose!

Again here–my angle on top and Robin’s grab below:


Okay. So we eventually tore ourselves away from the garden wall for some variety! Just down the hill is this lovely spot:




I just love how all of the colors that they had chosen for their wedding party came together:




The cocktail hour was wonderful–the weather was so nice and it was so relaxed.

We grabbed some detail shots under the tent before the guests filed in. I just LOVE how this all came together!



Brian and Lindsay wanted to get the party started so when they were announced they invited everyone onto the dance floor for a fun song before they slowed things down for their First Dance. Such a fun crowd!

First Dance below. Thanks to Robin for beautiful close-ups of their expressions.

There were several toasts. They had Co-Best Men and Co-Maids of Honor and parents who all wanted to get in a word about how perfect they are as a couple!



Brian and Lindsay–thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your wedding. Everything was so beautiful and you two were just beaming all day long. Congratulations!
