It’s no secret by now… I love elopements more than any other
kind of wedding we host at Honeysuckle Hills.
We have a great time and give 110% to all our weddings, but I can say
without hesitation that any wedding with under 50 guests is a wedding more
enjoyed by the bride and groom.

| Our covered pavilion is one of many ceremony options at Honeysuckle Hills. Usually chosen as a back-up plan for rain, some of our couples like its cool shade in the warmer months. |
Eloping doesn’t always mean just the two of you. Sometimes it means bringing along a few of
your closest family members. It’s
difficult to exclude parents, especially, or sisters and best friends.
One rule of thumb I tell my brides when deciding who to
invite is to answer this question… Have you spoken to this person in the past
48 hours? Further, have you seen them in
person in the past seven days? If so,
invite them to your elopement. If not,
it may end up causing stress and unnecessary expense.
The Honeysuckle Hills “Family Elopement” is a two hour
wedding reservation that allows plenty of time for photographs of the two of
you, as well as family portraits.
Some of our best bridal portraits of Tiffany were taken in
the dressing room just before the ceremony.
My assistant, Emily, provided a soft light source in the form of a video
light for me, since dressing areas don’t always have the best light.
For Tiffany’s family images, we did a combination of traditional
portraits along with a few lifestyle, or more emotional images.
Tiffany chose to have photographs made in areas with the
most green at our venue, so the images would match her home décor best. Our enchanted forest and horse field fit this
description for her perfectly.

The family chose Mama’s Farmhouse as their meeting place for
an after wedding restaurant reception. Mmmm…
delicious! Good, southern comfort food
delivered in an unending fashion!
