Book Your Own Secret Garden Event

From Hannah Forsberg: The Harper Fowlkes House is a gem hidden away in Historic Downtown Savannah that is treasured for the intimacy it provides and its historical details. It's the perfect setting to have sweet embraces and share that quiet tenderness and we hoped that this elopement would embody those emotions while also incorporating the classic autumn colors in the details and tributes to the Old World in the the delicate calligraphy and gorgeous china.

Slowing Down Your Wedding Day

The lace details in sweet Anna's gown complimented the delicate artistry of the hand-sculpted buttercream flowers so incredibly well. On the other side, we focused on the groom details, which added a touch of class to the shoot.

In a city known for its Southern charm and tourism, the slowness and the idea of "just being" was something we hoped to celebrate. Tristan Needham styled this gorgeous affair as an ode to summer and welcoming autumn and its' warm, golden tones. I'm so thankful to have been a part of this wonderful collaboration!
