Gulf Shores, AL Wedding | M&S

I had the pleasure of capturing the beautiful wedding of Samantha and Matt at the enchanting Historic Swift Coles Home, nestled near Gulf Shores, Alabama. With the warm hues of summer still lingering, their wedding was the perfect celebration of love—a delightful “last breath of summer” before we dive headfirst into the fall season. Samantha and Matt made the journey from Tennessee to share this special day with their closest family and friends, and their joy was palpable. The vibrant summer colors they chose added a fresh and lively touch to the backdrop of this historic venue.

In the weeks leading up to the wedding, we were bracing for a potential storm. However, just at the last moment, the forecast shifted, and Sam and Matt’s big day turned out to be nothing short of spectacular! The skies cleared, and the weather was simply beautiful, adding to the magic of their celebration.

It was a true joy to witness and document their love story unfold. Every detail, from the floral arrangements to the heartfelt exchanges of vows, radiated warmth and happiness. Not to mention, one of my favorite details was that Sam’s grandmothers served as the flower girls, scattering petals down the aisle. It was such an adorable moment that had all the guests laughing with joy!
