Grand Marquise Ballroom Wedding | Sarah & Mack

If ever there was a couple that I know will be celebrating their anniversary 60 years from now, it’s Sarah and Mack. Theirs is the kind of love that is magical. Almost fairytale-like. Like they’ve been sprinkled with glittery dust by the Love Fairy. In fact, if I didn’t know better, I would swear that novels have been written and movies made about their love. They each light up when they’re in the other’s presence. They’re happy. And everyone around them feels it. And they light up too. Because they know they’re in the presence of a deep, life-long love.

Every moment of their Grand Marquise Ballroom wedding was pure perfection. And just as magical as their love. From the time Sarah stepped into her gorgeous gown designed for a princess to the first step she took down the aisle toward her handsome prince; from the moment they kissed for the first time as husband and wife to the grand exit they made under twinkling stars and the golden glow of sparklers. Yes, pure, magical perfection. 

Sarah and Mack….Thank you. Thank you for being you. And for loving like you do. Thank you for welcoming me into your lives – and into your hearts. And for allowing me to document the beginning of this new chapter of your love story.  You’re nothing short of amazing and I am honored to call you not just clients, but now friends. May all of your days be filled with the kind of magical love that filled your wedding day! Much love…. OXOX ~ R

Sarah’s maid and matron of honor were the only attendants to help her get dressed. I just love this reaction of her bridesmaids and helpers as they see her for the first time.

Oh Sarah. Could you be any more beautiful?? You truly look like a princess. 

Sarah want to see Mack before the ceremony, but she did want a special moment alone with her Daddy before walking down the aisle. 

Sarah and Mack – the royals have nothing on you two! S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G!!!

The crowd roared when during his speech, Mack’s dad asked him to place his hand on top of Sarah’s and then advised him to enjoy it – warning that he is married now and it would be the last time he would have the upper hand.  A Meredith girl cannot have a wedding without the ring shot!
