Miranda + Patrick = Mims House Wedding Day!

Wedding Day  |  Leslie Alford Mims House   |  Miranda + Patrick  |  August 8, 2020

The big day had FINALLY arrived for Miranda and Patrick – after one reschedule due to COVID throwing a wrench in their original plans!!! We were so looking forward to celebrating their wedding day after ALL they had been through!

If you missed seeing their precious Engagement Session with Benson (their pup!) click HERE to see it, and if you missed Miranda’s GORGEOUS Walnut Hill Bridal Session that was like a flower garden dream, click HERE!

Saturday was absolutely perfect. It was sunny, not TOO hot, the grounds were beautiful, and everything was coming together wonderfully. Phillip and I arrived 45 minutes early just to find that EVERYONE was completely ready with hair and makeup 2 hours ahead of time!!!! I was beyond impressed – and it allowed for us to have a very relaxing and not stressed morning.

Miranda put so much thought into all the details of their day – from the beautiful invitation suite, to the florals, to the thoughtful gifts they gave their families. Some of my favorite parts of the day were the First Looks with Miranda and her dad, gift giving to their precious families, and the “no look” with Miranda and Patrick. They were such sweet moments!!! Also, Patrick surprised Miranda not only with a thoughtful letter, but a locket!!! Inside were photos of them, and their sweet pup Benson. She loved it so much!!! Also, Patrick was blown away by his gift from Miranda – an engraved bible, because he’d never had his own personal bible growing up!!! He really loved her thoughtfulness! It was so sweet.

Miranda & Patrick’s parents and siblings all gushed over how HAPPY they are to be joining families, and how perfect they are for each other. There were a lot of happy tears shed, and beautiful speeches from the families. It was truly beautiful to see 2 families combining like that!!! I loved it!!!

We just loved capturing this extra special day for Miranda and Patrick, and hope that you’ll LOVE seeing some of our favorites below!!! Enjoy!!!! 🙂
