What a DREAM day it was for Bella & Jace’s Starkville wedding at The Hill & Moor!! I knew their day would be so beautiful & couldn’t wait to get these two in front of my camera after their engagement session this past fall. Bella & Jace are just a special couple. Their love for the Lord & each other is evident in every interaction. They have known each other their entire lives, so their wedding day had been a long time coming! I was incredibly honored to be the one to capture every moment for them!!

Bella & Jace’s day was full of SO much emotion. I joked with Jace that I don’t think I’ve ever had a groom cry as much as he did!! It was the sweetest!! He started crying while Bella was walking towards him for their first look, before he even saw her! His reaction to seeing her was absolutely priceless. Bella & Jace both cried, hugged, & just soaked in the fact that their big day was finally here. As they read their personal vows to each other, I couldn’t hold back my own tears!! The love, joy, & excitement they shared in becoming husband & wife is something I will never forget! And I am SO honored that I got to be the one to capture it!!

Every detail of Bella & Jace’s day was stunning!! I’ve gotten to know Bella’s mom, Amy, through several weddings she’s coordinated in their hometown, Louisville. I knew she would create the most beautiful day for her baby girl, but she truly went above and beyond in putting together an incredible wedding from start to finish. What I loved was that nearly every vendor who helped make the day happen are friends of the Hillyer family. It was amazing to see everyone come together to help pull off the perfect day for Bella & Jace!!

Wedding days like this one are why I still love my job nearly 12 years after I captured my very first wedding. This was my 2nd time capturing a wedding for Jace’s family as I got to be his sisters wedding photographer 3 years ago. Both of these families were a dream to work for, & I am just truly grateful that they allowed me to document all of the joy that filled Bella & Jace’s day!! With over 200 favorite images, this blogpost is one of my longest ever!!

Mr. & Mrs. Hudspeth – you’re FINALLY married!!! I love you two & hope y’all are having the BEST honeymoon!! Enjoy reliving your incredible day!!
