Bethany and Gary’s shoot was definitely a very emotional one.  Tears flowed from the father-, mother-, and sister-of the bride during the ceremony.  It was an apparent that this couple is loved.  Their bridal party was filled with excited friends and family members that smiled genuinely as they walked down the aisle.
Their reception was like an old soda shop.  Instead of cutting the cake, Gary and Bethany scooped ice cream.  The new Mr. and Mrs. Turner sat on old chrome bar stools as they enjoyed their ice cream sundae. One of the things I really enjoyed about their reception was the incorporation other mothers/sons, fathers/daughter, and married couples during the traditional dances.  The guest seemed to really enjoy interacting during that time.

Bethany was beautiful in her simple but adorable wedding gown.  She wore a raspberry sash around her waste to match the bridesmaids.  Gary wore a bow tie to make him stand out among the rest of the groomsmen, who wore raspberry ties and light grey vest.  The entire wedding party looked great together!

Thank you so much Bethany and Gary for letting me be a part of your day! Best wish with your new marriage and move to Alabama!
