Zoe and Sam had a thoughtful and traditional wedding at their home church. Filled with love and joy, their December wedding was one of my favorites of 2022!

Kentucky Winter Wedding | Zoe + Sam

Zoe & Sam had the most beautiful winter wedding at their home church in the Old Chapel at Hillvue Heights Church.

You wouldn’t be able to tell from these photos, but these two actually eloped at the courthouse before having their actual wedding! They wanted the intimate experience that an elopement provides. But also wanted to celebrate with their family in a traditional wedding setting.

From eloping at the courthouse, having an official ceremony at their home church, and partying the night away at Rockn B Farms Wedding & Events, Zoe & Sam got to experience it all. They even had a sparkler exit before driving over to the reception venue!

When planning their wedding day, they wanted to be as family & friend-focused as they could be. They had a traditional bridal party, but Zoe also had her friends who weren’t included in the bridal party in specific dresses to include them in her day and get fun photos! This is an AMAZING way to include all of your friends in wedding photos if you can’t have a huge bridal party.

With Zoe & Sam being married before having the actual wedding, we got to make their wedding day schedule extra flexible which meant we could include over an hour of wedding portraits into their day!

Pro Tip:

The more flexible you make your wedding day schedule, the less stressful your wedding will be! Trust me 🤪
