Brianna & Ben- Alabama Forest Wedding

Brianna and Ben

Man May was busy! I mean super busy but Ben and Brianna were the perfect way to wrap up the month. Have you ever been invited to a wedding and felt pressured to bring a date if you were flying life solo?!?! Well, Brianna and Ben are the perfect example of why you don’t need to worry about finding your plus one when invited to one of your friends' weddings.

This love story started out at a wedding-I’m serious! Brianna was doing her duties as a bridesmaid in her brother's wedding when she was paired up to walk with this single cutie named Ben! Just a few short days later Brianna lost her daddy so him missing on her own wedding day was extra emotional for her.

Looking at Brianna and Ben’s wedding photos we get lost at the love she has for her groom. There are photos where she is clinging to him and you just know her heart is full of joy in them. Their first look on the chapel lawn was precious! They stood back to back but so eager to turn around and embrace they didn’t even get a good look at one another. Brianna’s dress was spaghetti strapped and fit perfectly on her tiny frame, the tiered skirt was perfection and made her look as if she was floating all day and she was so happy she might as well have been.

Florals for this wedding were a traditional white and it was the perfect accent to the dusty blue she chose for her bridesmaids dresses and details. It pays to know people and for this bride she just happened to be marrying the right guy! Ben’s parents, Jonathan and Renee, are the owners of The Shipping Zone in Killen, Alabama. If you are planning a wedding you need to go check out The Shipping Zone-they can get you all the custom details for your wedding day and at a great price. Everything from Save the Date’s, Invitations,  program’s, fan’s, cups, koozie’s, and more. Brianna chose a popper to use for their exit and instead of filling them with glitter or confetti she filled them with dried wildflower-it was beautiful and so unique!

Jonathan, the father of the groom preformed the ceremony and in his opening words and charge to his first born and now groom, Jonathan had the entire Bradford Farms staff in tears with his sweet sentiments of raising him. Brianna and Ben were married in the Treasured Forest location on the grounds on a nice overcast day. A modern wood circle centerpiece with white flowers was the backdrop for the ceremony. White floral centerpieces, greenery, and floating candles on top of silver linens created beautiful tablescapes for this wedding.

A vanilla naked wedding cake along with a table full of some of the groom’s favorite pies made by his mom were served for dessert after guests feasted on a buffet by Southern Skillet.

Congratulations Brianna and Ben, we hope your wedding day was everything you both dreamed of. We love you both and are grateful for the friendship we have built with your whole family and are thankful you have become a vendor we can call on when we need your specialized services! We will be seeing you all soon!
