The Allens- Party of Four

Zach and Allie Allen tied the knot on May 25, 2019 at Rosie Creek Farms in Panama City, Fl. Even though it was a hot day, it still was such a beautiful one that I was blessed to document.

Zach is my brother’s best friend for over 12 years now. He has always been very close to the family, and is definitely one of my many adopted brothers always being around each other. Him and Allie started a family together almost three years ago and have two sweet boys. Zach popped the question when none of us were expecting it and the wedding planning started immediately! They chose such beautiful colors for a summer wedding, and The Wedding Shop outdid themselves on decorating! It was absolutely beautiful!

Allie is finally an Allen and we are all so happy for them! Their wedding was such an enjoyable wedding, and the smoothest one I’ve shot to date! Check out some of my favorites from their big day!

Future brides and grooms- these are such neat groomsmen gifts!

Side note- The makeup artist, hairstylist, myself & my second shooter all showed up in army green, totally unplanned. It looked good on camera though :)

Is it really a wedding day if the groomsmen don’t do shots together?

All of the bridesmaids wrote a hand written letter to Allie and created a little book for her. It brought tears to their eyes and made such a sweet moment Allie will never forget.

Allie’s twin sister, Brooke, helped Allie into her dress before a first look with the other bridesmaids and their mom.

Isn’t this the cutest cake topper!! Tater’s Cakes did a wonderful job designing this cake. Some thought the hot day melted it perfectly, but we all know it would have looked like a hot mess if that were the case. The cake artist added this touch.

The guests were asked to stay in the AC in their cars while waiting on the ceremony to start because it was just that hot out. The guest came out 5 minutes before the ceremony started and the water was gone by time it began.

Also, unplugged weddings are the best! Not one issue with a guest interrupting photos with their phones thanks to this cute sign!

Momma put icing on their nose, so that means Emmett gets to eat it off!
