First looks are not for everyone (we love tradition!), but one of the benefits of them is that a bride and groom can say exactly what’s on their mind when they see each other for the first time. Especially if a videographer will be on hand, like Hampton Road Studios was at Lauren and Josh’s first look, having the sweet, honest words spoken in that moment captured forever is priceless! Please enjoy this beautiful video, and be sure to watch all the way to the end!

From the bride:

In the South, family and friends are the most important people to us. We were surrounded by those we loved all day on our wedding day, and my grandfather officiated our unity ceremony. The most memorable moment of our wedding day was the first time we saw each other. I was reluctant to do a first look because I wanted Josh to see me for the first time as I walked down the aisle, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world now. I had pre-wedding jitters, and seeing Josh gave me such a sense of calm and peace. It was perfect.

Oh my stars, do we have a treat for y’all today! Not only does Jessica and Russell’s wedding include some of the most beautiful, unique wedding locations I’ve seen (a first look in a lighthouse and a ceremony on a boat? Amazing!), this video also includes a few of my personal favorite wedding moments: a touching speech from the father of the bride. The sweetest exchange of traditional vows. A ceremony kiss that will give you butterflies. Alright, that’s enough spoilers for one day–y’all take a look!

From the bride:

Russell and I met over three years ago while working as servers at a small BBQ restaurant in Newberry, Florida. We instantly fell for each other, and our whirlwind of a romance took off! Our biggest adventure came to us less than a year after our love story began when we learned we were expecting. Although we faced many new challenges, the one thing we learned above all was that we could count on each other. Our little girl is the centerpiece of what keeps our family strong–she has made this entire dream possible.

Our wedding was rustic nautical with a Southern flair. The floral arrangements had a wildflower feel with anemones, garden roses, dusty miller and berries. Burlap and rope were used throughout to accentuate both the nautical and southern rustic themes. Some other Southern details of our wedding included the song I walked down the aisle to, “You Had Me from Hello” by Kenny Chesney (chosen by the groom to surprise the bride) and the first dance song of “Hey Pretty Girl” by Kip Moore. The last line of the song reads “hey pretty girl, when I see the lights and it’s my time to go, gonna thank the Lord for a real good life, a pretty little girl and a beautiful wife,” which we found perfectly fitting for our family.

The most memorable moment from our wedding was undoubtedly saying our vows to one another on the sailboat, surrounded by the water and our closest family, with the sun setting behind us. We could not have been blessed with a more breathtaking and romantic setting. It fit us perfectly.

Happy Memorial Day weekend, y’all! We thought we’d start off this day with a special film from Nathan Willis. Sarah + Nathan are self described “old souls and hopeless romantics,” and we think their sweet wedding film is just the perfect representation of that. Be sure to keep an eye out for my favorite clip! Hint: it involves two adorable kiddos at the reception!

From the bride:

When we first met, it was not love at first sight. The fact that Nathan was three years old and I was two months old when our eyes first locked may have had something to do with that. Over 20 years later, we became better acquainted. Our mothers had grown up close friends, which resulted in two very pleased families when we announced we would be married on February 23, 2013. Due to our families’ combined knack for planning and decorating, sorting out wedding details proved to be a pleasurable experience!

I envisioned a simple wedding with a vintage flair that not only complimented our style, but also our personalities (we are two old souls who happen to also be hopeless romantics). The Venue in downtown Hattiesburg exemplified just that. The building had the perfect vintage vibe for our ceremony and reception due to its history of housing a bakery warehouse in the early 1900s. To continue with the vintage theme, our families pulled together to decorate this beautiful building with family heirlooms, antiques, and lots of lace. Guests were seated at tables as a beautiful harp was played. With our loved ones watching and our attendants by our side, we vowed a life of love to one another. It was truly the sweetest moment of my life.

The reception had a carefree atmosphere with the help of the soulful sounds from the Cowboy Blues Band. Guests enjoyed wonderful food, dancing, and even a homemade photo booth. The guests were given a take-home bag to fill at a candy bar tiered with chocolate candies and pralines. Our beautiful cake was embellished with a silk broach and topped with wooden love birds reading, “We Do.” The groom’s table was a tribute to Nathan’s fishing hobby, complete with a vintage tackle box, lures, and a fishing net. Three wooden tree stumps served a variety of miniature cheesecakes.
At the end of the night, guests lined up outside The Venue for our sparkler send off. It was such a lovely party! This day was made special thanks to the efforts of so many people. We are so thankful for the memories of this wonderful moment in time which started our life together.

    As Mother of the Bride, I as especially proud of these two, Sarah and Nathan. Their wedding was as beautiful as they are. So happy their video can be shared with others! Two of the cutest slips are when they are really laughing during the ceremony (because I know what they were laughing about) and then when they kissed, and the ring bearer covered his eyes (have to be looking out for for this because it’s quick)!

    Thanks, Southern Weddings Magazine!
