alexis and brett had such an incredible wedding! even when things were a little behind schedule, alexis still had a beaming smile on her face. we started the day off at angellie salon in luling, louisiana. they were pampered to the max and everyone was so supportive of her when timing set us a little behind. before we knew it, we were back on schedule and ready to head to the church. 

their ceremony was held at st. charles borromeo church in destrehan, louisiana. this church is one of my favorites! it is smaller than most churches, but it's coziness creates such a romantic vibe. 

they nailed their dream of a romantic and classic ballroom wedding, but in a day setting. chateau country club provided the perfect elegant atmosphere and they never stopped dancing! i loved that they made time for the three of us to get away and have some fun taking portraits.

pro tip: make the time for portraits. often times we all feel so rushed to get to the reception that we don't focus on what is truly important...documenting the two of your for the first time as husband and wife. it is such a crucial time for everyone involved. it gives you time to relax for a moment and talk about how amazing getting married was, having a minute to just be together without anyone around, and taking some pretty exceptional wedding portraits. i cannot stress enough how important it is to take the 15 minutes to yourselves! it is something i promise you won't regret!

i hope you all enjoy the highlights from their wedding day!
