Amy+Greg-An Emotional, Classic Covington Tennessee Wedding

I am so excited to finally be posting Amy and Greg’s romantic wedding. After having five weddings in May, and four in June, on top of a minor (not so minor) surgery, and moving into a new home, I can honestly say I am ready for normal routines to come on back in my life. Shoot, edit, post. (I sleep, eat, and laugh somewhere in between those.)

Do you remember Amy and Greg?

How could you forget those cuties? https://kellyginnphotography.com/amygreg-a-spring-meadow-engagement/

I’ll be honest, I looked at the weather probably 20 times the week of their wedding and was TERRIFIED by what I saw. I kept my fingers crossed and said my prayers, but it still wasn’t looking too good. I sent Amy a couple of texts on the morning of her wedding just telling her that I was excited about her day, and that I’d see her soon. She replied “Please pray for no rain.” Amy is A LOT of things, a lot: adorable, fun, loud, stunning, brave, fearless, tiny, smart, I could go on and on.. but when I think of Amy the first word that comes to mind is faithful.

When John and I arrived at Amy’s church she greeted us with a hug. You could tell she was holding back tears, but stayed so calm and strong. I probably saw her and her family/bridesmaids pray and hug three or four different times. Each and every time after, Amy would have even more pep in her step. NOTHING can keep this girl from smiling and laughing. I can honestly say I have never met anyone as naturally happy as she. You will notice throughout this post that she laughs more than anyone you know, even as she was walking down the aisle. Happy girls are the prettiest girls.

Although the ground was wet from an earlier storm, I never once saw it rain on Amy and Greg’s special day. The sun even poked out for a minute. We were limited as to where we could stand because of the wet and soggy ground, but Amy and Greg couldn’t have cared less. They both knew that wasn’t what their day was about, and I love that about them.

This was a VERY emotional wedding. I saw almost everyone shed a tear or two at one point throughout the day, but hey, it’s a wedding! Amy’s sweet sweet mom, Mrs. Mary Ann, was so precious and supportive. I once saw she and Amy praying alone together in the corner. They didn’t let the chance of showers get them down.

Before I get TOO wordy, I will let these gorgeous images speak for themselves.

Amy and Greg, you guys are beautiful, charming, and your love for each other radiates for everyone to see. You two deserve each other, and we are thankful that we got to spend the entire day with you!

Enjoy!

We all need a friend to fan us on our wedding day, Bethany is that friend.

One minute she laughs, the other she cries.

I wish I could make first looks mandatory, haha. I’m SO contradicting, because I didn’t even see John before, but it gives the bride and groom a moment alone. It’s a precious memory they will never forget.

Amy could hardly contain herself.

So, Greg threatened to ‘de-friend’ me on Facebook if I posted any emotional images of him. Although Amy encouraged me to do so, Greg I will have to take my chances, because these images are the sweetest ones I have ever seen, You just won the heart of EVERY single person who looks at this post. You’re their hero =]

The talented John Ginn shot this, and many others throughout this post!

Greg, every bride wishes their groom would act like this, promise!

Now I am crying all over again.

Amy, geeze. Just stop. You are hauntingly beautiful, and that is a serious compliment.

Quite possibly my favorite.

I love when my brides cheer and chant on their wedding day.

I posted this on Facebook yesterday with a caption that said “I look for children like this during wedding ceremonies, because once upon a time, I use to be that exact child.” One of my families oldest friends commented on it and said “Once upon a time?” haha, she called me out for sure!

Amy was able to have her dad walk her down the aisle, and marry her. That is just precious.

And she laid one on him!

After the ceremony, and before the reception, we got to take a detour to Greg’s barn for some casual photos!

John took this. I feel so blessed to have him get creative wedding photos while I’m getting the safe, must have ones. We’re a good team!

This vintage window from an old church was the PERFECT backdrop for their cake.

This was truly stunning.

When party lights fall, the inner cheerleader inside you comes out. I am surprised I even was able to pull it together and take a picture because I was bent over laughing.

Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Williams!
