Wow, we have been waiting so anxiously to share Juliana and Porter’s Big Cedar Lodge Wedding with you!  And the day is finally here! We truly couldn’t have asked for better weather on Juliana and Porter’s special day. Porter began his day with his groomsmen and Dad, playing a round of golf at Top of the Rock! Juliana and her girls met at the Big Cedar Lodge Spa for hair, makeup, and mimosas! Juliana stepped into her gorgeous Marchesa dress and had the sweetest moment with her Bridesmaids/flower girls as they all saw her as a Bride for the first time! Porter prepped for the big day at Integrity Hills, waiting for his beautiful Bride to arrive for the first look!

The first look was beautiful, filled with emotion and so much love! And if you didn’t already know these two belong together, they choose the same wedding day gifts for one another! During the first look, these two also decided to exchange vows, which truly makes for some of the best moments!

From the first look we headed over to the beautiful chapel that looks over Table Rock Lake! The wedding party met us here for the loveliest portraits in front of the chapel! Then it was time for the wedding! Their Orthodox Christian Ceremony brought in so many beautiful traditions! The chapel was filled with loved ones, and these two made their way down the aisle as husband and wife!

With a beautiful new marriage to celebrate, we jumped right into the evening’s festivities! Juliana and Porter brought on the help of an amazing Vendor Team to make their dream wedding come true! Kate and Company along with Big Cedar Lodge, Festive Couture Floral, and many others turned the Stable at Integrity Hills into a stunning wonderland that brought the feeling of the beautiful outdoors inside!

After sweet toasts and the most delicious dinner, Juliana and Porter invited their guests to meet them under the tent along the hillside of Integrity Hills to dance the night away! They finally made their exit late into the evening and the day was complete! It was truly a dream to photograph all the amazing moments and details of this Big Cedar Lodge Wedding, congratulations Juliana and Porter!!!
