The Ultimate Wedding Recap | Jamie & Alex | April 7, 2018 | Arden Photography

The beginning of April was met with this sweet bride that brought free-spirited laughter and eye-smiles to everyone at Windwood Equestrian in her wake. Jamie exuded timeless class and enthusiasm throughout her wedding day, as expected of a former Miss Alabama. The flowers from Bloom & Petal chosen for this special day exemplified her kind and bright demeanor that brought smiles to even the most stubborn of faces as she made her way down the aisle. People are wise when they say true beauty is created from the inside out and thus radiates to others. Loving kisses were shared from the final moments of their ceremony, in front of their wedding cake with a non-traditional drip design from Joe’s Italian, and up until the newlyweds departed. Arden Photography extends a huge congratulations to Jamie and Alex for not only allowing us to share these precious moments with them, but also bringing joy to our hearts throughout the day.

The Ultimate Wedding Recap | Ashley & Adam | March 24, 2018 | Arden Photography

The end of March was approaching for Windwood Weddings, but this precious couple was beginning their lifelong journey of love and happiness. Bouquets filled with white and light pink roses complimented the bridesmaid’s dresses and the blushing cheeks of the soon-to-be Mrs. Harris. Nervous giggles and wandering eyes were continuously present during their first look. I’ll let you in on a little known fact of Windwood: our Lady Bank roses that bloom during the last week in March to the middle of April make for the perfect backdrop for wedding photos i.e. the arbor the wedding party is standing in front of for pre-ceremony pictures, especially to capture the springtime feel on your special day. When the, what felt like, long-awaited ceremony occurred, a collective sigh of contentment was ebbing from the newlyweds. This contentment grew to pure joy as the couple serenaded the crowd with their first dance and shared tastes of their wedding cake. The night ended as if your favorite sports team just won with shaking poms lined across the walkway as the Harris’s were off to their honeymoon destination.

The Ultimate Wedding Recap | Jeannie & Ryan | March 18, 2018 | Arden Photography

Jeannie and Ryan were wed on a lovely day in March. The Spring sun warmed our backs as the love we witnessed between them warmed our hearts. Each wedding we photograph has an element of tradition and elements that make them personalized to the couple. We loved the Alabama Cake from “Cakes by Jan” even though this wasn’t our favorite Tuscaloosa team’s year at National Championship we all love a diehard fan. Nothing says fan like eating Alabama Cake. All the guest’s belly’s were as full as there heart’s because Happy Catering knows how to feed a crowd. As guests enjoyed the evening and danced into the night with music by Feel the Beat Entertainment, our sweet friend Danny Brewer, we all enjoyed ourselves and this first Spring 2018 wedding for Windwood Weddings and Arden Photography.

A beautiful start to Jeannie and Ryan’s wedding day.

It has been two years, and a few days, since Sarah and Jeremy were wed on a gorgeous summer night at Windwood Equestrian, and it seems like it was yesterday! These two could not have been more picture perfect, and we could not get enough of Sarah's lace gown! Not to mention, Sarah's shoes, which were my absolute favorite! The couple also brought along the most energetic wedding party and crowd to celebrate their marriage. Everyone gathered at the school barn for Sarah and Jeremy's vows, and then danced the night away in celebration. The two were the sweetest couple, and it was a magical day. Happy Anniversary Sarah and Jeremy! We wish you many more to come!

Happy two year anniversary to Lyndal and Daniel! We can't believe it has been two years since this beautiful couple tied the knot! The two were wed on a gorgeous summer day at Church of the Highlands Chapel were they shared their intimate vows in front of their closest family and friends. We loved Lyndal's choice for an all white color palette. Her style was so elegant and classic, you just couldn't help but fall in love with the day! We always love working with Mariee Ami's team, and they insured that the day went flawlessly. Their reception at the Birmingham Country Club was a celebration for the books! Dancing and tambourines made for an unforgetable night, no one could just stay sitting! Congratulations Lyndal and Daniel! We wish you all the best and many more the come!

Here at Arden Photography, celebrating our happy couples anniversaries is an occasion we love to be a part of! Two years ago today, Morgan and Patrick tied the knot at The Sonnet House on the most beautiful spring day. Their gorgeous outdoor ceremony was followed by dancing the night away under the golden lights with their closest friends and family.
