Joel & Carson had a beautiful December wedding at Lake Jordan Alabama where their closest family and friends joined them for a small intimate ceremony. Romantic, elegant, and timeless would perfectly describe the day with colors of greens, reds, and golds that matched the season wonderfully!

Despite being December, we know Alabama always has some kind of crazy weather in store each season! So as we approached the week of the wedding, rain was in the forecast thus a tent was planned. However, upon arrival, a beautiful structure was standing where a tent would be – and I couldn’t believe it had been built in just 5 days!! This lakeside wedding was going to be gorgeous even with the rain. Luckily, it only drizzled most of the day so with the softy clouded sky – Joel and Carson were able to get some absolutely stunning portraits!

Love doesn’t stop for rain and neither did the joy that Carson and Joel radiated throughout the day. It was a perfectly dreamy southern Alabama wedding on the lake which even included a boat ride!! Taking pictures on the lake – now that was an experience to remember!! Following the ceremony there was a beautiful dinner on the lake-house porch, elegantly decorated, with the bride and groom seated at the head of the table.

Here are just a few images from their gorgeous day!

Carson & Joel were so beautiful – and I certainly wish them many many years of happiness in their lives. May God bless you abundantly as you walk through life together and know that He is with you every step of the way.

Much Love,
