Sara & Zach

July 11, 2020

West Milford Farm | Cumming, Georgia

Sara and Zach were FINALLY able to tie the knot this past Saturday! Originally scheduled for April 11, it only took two postponements for these two to be able to gather with their loved ones to celebrate.

This wedding was a little bit special for me, as the Groom is my sweet friend Kaitlyn Blake Photography’s little brother! Kaitlyn photographed their incredible proposal in Santorini, Greece (Check it out here!) and they were the easiest couple to photograph in the world (thanks to countless shoots with Kaitlyn)

Sara and Zach had such a beautiful day! I loved the mix of tans, greys, and sage bridesmaids dresses, paired with lots of greenery & neutral florals. West Milford was a perfect backdrop for their day, and their greenhouse was the perfect spot for shady portraits during the day. They also had the most beautiful sunset behind the reception space, that helped create to die for sunset portraits. Sara shared a first look with her bridesmaids, her brother, and Zach! They were so sweet and tear-filled. After the ceremony, they were ready to party, so starting it off with a champagne pop was the perfect way to go. Sara is a PRO champagne popper, I didn’t even need to give her my tips! Top off the night with a delicious dinner & cake, they danced the night away before their sparkler send off!
