Getting Ready

Once Sara and her bridesmaids were finished with hair and makeup, the girls gathered around in their monogrammed outfit to capture the morning’s moment.

Sara’s beautiful wedding ring was hard to not notice as she held her wine glass during her prep.

All the elements that would soon complete Sara’s wedding day look were effortlessly stunning as they awaited to be purposed. Sara’s dress had lace short sleeves, a thin silk ribbon around the waist, and a light pink undertone beneath the tulle. To add a touch of twinkle to her ensemble, Sara’s shoes have an intricate crystal design on the back of each.

Meanwhile, Hanlon was buttoning his sleeve cuffs and completing his look. Once he was ready to go, a few portraits were captured.

First Look

Sara and Hanlon decided to do a First Look at their venue, City Winery. When Hanlon turned around and saw his soon-to-be-wife for the first time that day, he couldn’t help but contain his excitement and happiness. Seeing how pleased he was brought tears of joy to Sara’s eyes.

Wedding Party Photos

The wedding party traveled to Cumberland Park to get pictures of everyone together. The black dresses and suits made Sara’s dress pop out even more.

Ceremony Details

Sara and Hanlon had their ceremony details printed on programs for each guest to use and follow along with.

Gold chiavari chairs and lots of greenery provided beautiful accents to their ceremony.

Wine corks were crafted into “S + H” and were displayed right above the card table.

Wedding Ceremony

The cute little ring bearer needed some guidance as he made his way down the aisle. Following his lead, Sara and her father walked arm in arm as they made their way up to the front.

Reception Details

For the venue at City Winery, white draping with a dash of greenery cascaded down the doorway of the reception’s entrance. Also, a heart-shaped “S + H” light danced on the floor to greet you once you walked through.

Guests were provided with fun drinks at cocktail hour that included stirrers with “S + H” printed at the top.

The gold chiavari chairs made their second appearance at the reception. The chairs were placed at a long wooded table for the wedding party, and at round tables with an ivory linen draping over them for the guests.

Marble coasters with calligraphy helped each guest to their seat. The reception’s dinnerware had gold accents to compliment the chiavari chairs and the wax stamp located on the favor above the dinner menu.

For centerpieces, a flower design with lots of greenery poured over an elevated gold bowl. Candles in glass votives surrounded the centerpiece to bring a warm ambiance to the reception.

The wedding cake was beautiful with 3-tiers, textured polka dots that were more condensed at the top tier and faded out further down the cake. There were also floral accents added to the cake that matched the elements in Sara’s bouquet.

In light of their last name MILLER, Sara and Hanlon used the fun phrase “It’s Miller Time!” for their day. The expression is most notorious from MillerCoors, as their slogan is “It’s Miller Time.”

Additionally, the couple provided their guests with an alternate pair of shoes for more comfort and flexibility for the anticipated night of dancing.

Wedding Reception Highlights

To start the reception off, the full wedding party made a grand entrance. Sara and Hanlon threw on some shades and locked hands for their entrance as Mr. and Mrs. Miller.
