Josh Megan Wedding Weekend - Gateway Lodge, Cooksburg PA

We are officially back into the swing of things here at Rachel Anne's Photography with our first wedding of the Spring Season and our very FIRST post on the new RA blog & website ;)

Josh & Megan invited us to photograph their entire Wedding Weekend, beginning with the Rehearsal Friday, then the Wedding on Saturday, and ending with, one of my favorites, a Newlywed Photo Shoot on Sunday!

It was a lovely weekend nestled in the woods of Cook Forrest at the Gateway Lodge. An intimate wedding with 50 or so of Josh & Megan's closest friends & family, with personal touches everywhere to be seen: blue satin stilettos, floral Etsy bridesmaid robes, baby's breath placed here & there, and even personalized matching Converse Sneakers for the bride & groom.

What a fabulous weekend to kick off our Wedding Season here at Rachel Anne's Photography!

VENUE - Gateway Lodge, Cooksburg PA  www.gatewaylodge.com

• The Gateway Lodge had some of the yummiest food I've tasted in my 8 years of shooting weddings and while the guest suites had fireplaces, whirlpool tubs, and king sized beds, my favorite feature had to be the SHEETS...the softest linens I have ever slept on ;)

BAND - Vertigo Vibe, Reading PA  www.vertigovibe.com

• A fun way to rock the night away is bring in a LIVE band like Vertigo Vibe! Playing rock classics with their own sound...Sweet Home Alabama, TNT, Born to Be Wild and more!

HAIR - Stylez Salon - Ridgway, PA  www.facebook.com/Stylez-Salon

• It's so nice when a Salon can accommodate your wedding plans and come to YOU for your beauty preparation the morning of the wedding...keep in mind most salons don't offer that option!
