The Gaines Estate in Fayetteville, West Virginia, is one of our favorite West Virginia venues! It is a restored historic estate tucked away in the cute town of Fayetteville, and from the bridal suite to the outdoor ceremony site under the pretty maple try, to the romantic balcony for sunset portraits, we are always so happy to be there!!
When we arrived we grabbed some of the beautiful detail photos to start telling the story of the day. Lindsey wore her mom’s pearl earrings that she wore on her wedding day, and we always love these sweet personal touches!!
This “I do” perfume was so cute!
After getting ready with her mom and friends, Lindsey had a sweet first look moment with her dad. These are always one of my favorite parts of the day!
Then we grabbed some beautiful photos of Lindsey and her girls! Aren’t they beautiful?? Loved this color bridesmaid dress.
Then Lindsey and Steven had a sweet ceremony under the trees behind The Gaines Estate. It was a perfect sunny summer day!!
Of course we had to sneak out for some sunset portraits. These are always my favorite because the light is gorgeous, but it is also a perfect time for the bride and groom to sneak away and have a few minutes alone, and they are always so fun because all the stress of the day is over!
Congratulations, Lindsey & Steven! We were honored to photograph your day and we wish you the happiest marriage!!
With love,
Katelyn & Will
