As a wedding photographer, I always love working at Country Lane Lodge, because it is a stunning venue that offers the perfect backdrop for celebrations. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Breanna and Chris’s wedding, which was exquisite!

The venue was beautifully adorned with floral arrangements by Bella Flora, creating a breathtaking atmosphere. Breanna’s choice of colors—deep burgundy, forest green, and hints of burnt orange—perfectly embodied a fall wedding vibe.

The outdoor ceremony was a highlight. It was set against the lodge’s picturesque surroundings. During the ceremony, Breanna and Chris exchanged heartfelt vows with their daughters. It brought tears to many eyes. Making it a truly memorable moment.

Throughout the day, everything went seamlessly. The reception was lively. Thanks to the fantastic DJ from Select Entertainment. They are one of my favorite wedding vendors. They know how to keep the energy high ensuring everyone has a great time.

Afterwards, as the sun began to set, casting beautiful hues across the sky. I took Breanna and Chris outside for sunset photos. This is always my favorite part of the day. As capturing couples against a stunning sunset creates magical images. Chris held Breanna close, and their love radiated in every photo.

Additionally, Country Lane Lodge illuminated by charming lights. Altogether the scene was perfect. I could see their daughters twirling in their dresses, embodying the joy of this special day. Overall It was the ideal conclusion to a wedding filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
