Wow. What a wedding. Marie and Donnie are hands-down, two of the nicest people I’ve had the pleasure of photographing. They were so excited to be getting married! The wedding had the feel of the countryside in France …..and the entire team for this day was incredible! :)

Wedding planner: Heather Minor
2nd photographer: Kristin Cheatwood
Caterer: Cristina’s Restaurant
Flowers: Kurt from Botanic
Video: Max Monahan
Reception: the Turner’s home (parents of the bride)
Band: Marmalade Hill
Hair/Makeup: Jamilynn Smith from Vertu
Dress: Carolina Herrera
Shoes: Oscar de la Renta
Table linens from Sonoma, Linen napkins from France, hemstitched linen cocktail napkins, hand blown plum water glasses, and olive trees, fresh lavender shipped in from growers. There were even more details like ’65 Ford Falcon, flip-flops, lavender pashminas, and cowboy hats were given out. Champagne towers and lavender infused french macaroon cookies with a butter cream huckleberry cake! I wish I could have photographed the fragrance from the wedding throughout the day…WONDERFUL!








Congratulations Donnie and Marie! and have a wonderful honeymoon in Kona, Hawaii. Much Love, Hillary xoxo
