You all met Mandy + James a few weeks ago when we featured their engagement session on the blog. You also got to see Mandy’s bridal session that we photographed over at Steelwood in Loxley, AL. This past February, it was time for the wedding bells here in Pensacola, FL. Check it out.

We started off the morning with a first glance in the sanctuary of First Baptist Church Pensacola.

We moved right through the couples formals & into the group shots with bridal party + family. This saves us tons of time after the ceremony, and gets our couples to the reception a lot sooner following the ceremony.

The details at Mandy + James’ wedding were dreamy! Mandy wanted a garden feel for the event. With the help of Skopelos and Celebrations, it totally hit the mark!

Bridesmaid Emily caught the bouquet and was proposed to just days later - so the legend must be true! ;)
