Love was in the air, and excitement was evident at Riley and Jordan’s luxury wedding at Mallard’s Croft’s glass chapel in Byhalia, MS! The venue, a luxurious glass chapel with windows from the floor to the ceiling provided breathtaking natural light that enhanced all the beauty that Riley had planned for their special day!
A Picture of Elegance
Riley looked absolutely breathtaking in her fitted wedding dress adorned with intricate lace and beading details from Low’s Bridal in Brinkley, AR. It accentuated her natural beauty while her dramatic veil added a touch of elegance! Jordan was the picture of sophistication in a classic black suit paired with a crisp white tie.
A Ceremony Filled with Symbolism and Remembrance
One of my favorite moments of the ceremony was when Riley and Jordan lit a unity candle, with both sets of their parents participating. This symbolic gesture beautifully represented the merging of two families into one. The couple also honored loved ones who had passed away by displaying pictures of them, keeping their memories alive on their wedding day!
Dancing the Night Away
The festivities continued into the night with a reception that can only be described as epic! The dance floor was alive with energy as guests danced and sang to the music, illuminated by glow-in-the-dark props that added even more fun to the celebration. The couple’s first dance was a magical moment, made even more enchanting by their last name glowing in big letters behind them by Letter Bright Memphis!
During the reception, there was a heartwarming moment when the guests sang “Happy Birthday” to a cousin whose birthday fell on the same day! Riley and Jordan even had a birthday cake for him! It was a touching reminder of the importance of family and the joy of celebrating life’s special moments together.
A Sparkling Farewell: The Grand Exit
As the night drew to a close, the newlyweds opted for a fake sparkler exit, so everyone could go back inside to party all night long! The sparklers cast a warm, inviting light, symbolizing the bright future that lay ahead for Riley and Jordan! Outside of the sparkler exit, they bought cold sparklers for us to use for a few epic portraits in front of the venue!
Riley and Jordan’s luxury wedding at Mallard’s Croft’s glass chapel was more than just a celebration of love; it was a testament to their unique bond and the incredible journey they were about to embark on together! It was a day filled with laughter, joy, and unforgettable memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Rose, and here’s to a lifetime of love, happiness, and joy! Thank you for choosing me to be such a big part of your day!
