Amy & Ace's Wedding at the Biltmore

Earlier this month we headed up to the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC for Amy and Ace's beautiful wedding. Though we never got to do an engagement shoot with them due to their super busy schedules and living in Atlanta, we photographed their rehearsal dinner so we got to know them and some of their family and friends. They had it at an Asheville Tourists ball game at McCormick Field. Ace even got to throw out the first pitch which was pretty cool!

Amy and Ace are a really nice, laid back couple and their wedding day reflected that. The ceremony was held in the beautiful courtyard at the Deer Park restaurant and the reception was inside. One of the bonuses to having your wedding there is you're allowed to take pictures anywhere on the grounds of the Biltmore Estate! Talk about photo heaven! Everywhere you look is great architecture, pristine landscaping and spectacular vistas. Check out the slideshow at the end and you'll see what we mean.

Cake & Catering: Biltmore
Florist: The Flower Gallery - Luck always does a great job!
Band: Ms. Jones & The Velvetones - Very fun band
Officiant: Reverend Jacqui
Bride's Dress: Bridal Sense - Atlanta, GA








We are so glad that Amy and Ace chose to do a "First Look". When couples first see each other without everyone else around, they don't hold back their smiles, laughs or even tears. It just makes it more of an intimate moment that you can then share with everyone afterwards through the images. Doing it this way also made sure we had time with them to take advantage of the Biltmore grounds.











This view alone is spectacular but add in a gorgeous bride like Amy and it becomes breathtaking! (Forgive us for not being humble but we dig these shots)


Adding in Ace to make Amy smile just sweetens the deal.











Amy's dad really cut a rug for their father-daughter dance. He got Amy's dress spinning beautifully.
