Beth + Andrew had a Tucker’s Farmhouse Wedding | Florida Wedding Photographers Jerry and Karen Favorite | Favorite Studios Photography + Cinematography

Tucker’s Farmhouse Wedding

The main barn on the property was built in 1986. However, the first wedding to take place on the property didn’t happen until 2013. This unique location hosts weddings of all sizes and always photographs beautifully. Tucker’s Farmhouse is a full service location that offers set up, decorating, coordinating for the ceremony and reception. Additionally, the farmhouse does the breakdown and cleanup.

We loved walking around this rustic farmhouse with the couple for pictures. There are tons of picture perfect spots scattered throughout the property. Additionally, the area is lit up at night by twinkly lights that make the night even more magical.

Cheers!

While the bride finished getting the final touches done with hair and makeup we got pictures of the bridesmaids. Each bridesmaid had a violet robe and custom socks. They sat on this trendy couch and cheered to the happy couple.

Light Blue Bridesmaids Dresses

Recently, a lot of brides will let their bridesmaids pick which style of dress they prefer and just require it to be a certain color. This trend is great because it allows the bridesmaids to pick a style that they feel the most confident in. Also, each bridesmaid had wore flats for comfort and practicality. Even the bride wore a pair of sparkly white Keds.

Ironman Wedding Details

Who doesn’t love superheroes? This groom was a huge fan of Ironman and decided to wear socks and cufflinks that demonstrated that. Additionally, each of his groomsmen wore Marvel themes socks. In the pictures to follow you can see them showing them off. Over and above that, each groomsmen got a custom glass pint with their last name on it (shown below). These are a great gift to get your groomsmen.

Custom Shot Glasses

Beth + Andrew got a custom whiskey decanter made for their wedding ceremony. Additionally, the shot glasses even say Mr & Mrs Lancaster! After they finished saying their vows they took a shot together. It is personalized touches like these that truly make your wedding special.

Happily Ever After

We’ve all heard a story where the price and his princess ride off into the sunset, and live “Happily Ever After.” Tucker’s Farmhouse has a sign for pictures that reads “Happily Ever After” that sits on an antique couch by the barn. This is one of the many picture perfect spots on the property.

Candid + Posed Wedding Pictures

Photographing those raw moments is just as important as getting those beautifully posed pictures. Also, we want everyone of our clients to have a good variety in their wedding photos, and be able to look back and smile at them.

First Dance as Husband + Wife

Love is Intoxicating

Lauren + Thomas had a Saint Augustine River House Wedding | Florida Wedding Photographers Jerry and Karen Favorite | Favorite Studios Photography + Cinematography

Traditional Wedding

This happy couple got married at the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Augustine. They had a beautiful ceremony at the grand church in downtown. After their ceremony all guests migrated to the River House just a mile down the road for the cocktail party and then reception.

Morning of Wedding Letters

Lauren + Thomas wrote letters to one another to read before their wedding. While reading her letter Lauren was overcome with tears of joy. We’ve seen more and more couples doing these letters and we are here for it. They are sentimental and set a good mood for the day.

Wedding Rings

Wedding rings symbolize the never ending love of a couple. Her engagement ring has a princess cut diamond and a twisted band. As they say, diamonds are a girl’s best friend.

Cathedral Basilica of Saint Augustine

The Basilica was built in 1797 and still stands to this day. The old church still holds regular mass services. It is a common place for couples to get married. It has vibrant stained glass that line the walls and a grand alter. This couple had a traditional catholic wedding ceremony. Also, we were able to get shots from above as the father walked the bride down the isle.

Lets Take This Outside

We like to take a few formals of the couple, bridal party, and family right after the ceremony. However, we also like to goo outside for a few more pictures. During this time is when we get most of the pictures of the bride and groom.

There are many beautiful places scattered in downtown that are great for pictures. One great place is the Lightner Museum. It has lots of pretty architecture and plants that look good in photographs.

“Act Natural”

Some of the best pictures are more natural or even candid. We want everyone to feel comfortable and confident when getting their pictures taken. On the other hand, we also make sure to get some more serious posed pictures. Often we tell the groomsmen to lean on one another and stand more casual to get more “natural” pictures.

Generations

We are totally here for these types of pictures. Brides often want a picture with the wedding bands of parents and grandparents. These sentimental photos show the love of past generations.

Saint Augustine River House Wedding

Just a little walk from the heart of downtown Saint Augustine, Florida is the Saint Augustine River House. This riverfront property hosts a number of events, including weddings. From the dock you can see the historic lighthouse and the blue waters of the Matanzas River.

When guests first arrive at the River House they walk through the building and sign the guest book. Then they can go down by the water with their specialty cocktail or hors-d’oeuvre. Next they’ll relax and wait to be brought into the reception hall and take their seat. Finally, they’ll clap and celebrate as the newly weds enter the reception.

Cake of Macaroons

This aesthetic wedding cake with macaroons and edible gold flakes stole the show. It might have been hidden in the corner, but it definitely caught people’s attention. The unique design and soft pinks and peaches helped set the mood. Additionally, the personalized wedding topper includes the couple’s corgi and cat.

#Selfie

As wedding photographers we find it just as important to capture candid moments just as much as the posed pictures. We want our clients to look back on their wedding pictures and remember all the great memories.

Pictures at Sunset

Locations like the River House are great because they offer an outdoor and indoor setting. During sunset we took the happy couple outside for some pictures. Theres nothing more romantic than pictures at sunset over the Matanzas River.

Intimate Last Dance

Recently, more and more of our clients have chosen to do a last dance. This is when everyone (except the photographers) goes outside or into another room. So that the couple can dance to one last song together. This intimate moment is one of our favorites to capture because of how special this moment is. Not to mention, it makes for some spectacular photos.

Horse & Carriage

If you’ve ever been downtown then you’ve probably seen one of the horse and carriages before. They are a staple of downtown. Often couples who get married downtown will rent one for the evening and ride around the streets after their grand exit.
