Logan + Shane’s Channel Side Wedding in Palm Coast |Florida Wedding Photographers Jerry, Karen, and Hannah Favorite | Favorite Studios Photography + Cinematography
Channel Side Wedding Venue
The Channel Side is a newer wedding venue located in Palm Coast. Their waterfront location is perfect for any wedding. They have a beautiful outdoor space that is great for wedding ceremonies. Channel Side has lots a spots for pictures. Their venue has a little something for everyone.
Sunflowers & Wedding Rings
Sunflowers are a symbol of happiness and longevity. Plus, their vibrant colors are absolutely stunning. Some could argue that sunflowers are almost as common as roses as wedding flowers. To match the country aesthetic of sunflowers this couple chose a simple wooden box to hold their rings. There is a beauty in its minimalism.
First Touch
This happy couple chose to do a first touch after getting ready. This practice is intimate and heart warming. While being unable to see one another they reach their hands out for one another.
First Look Inspiration
Just like the first touch, the first look is an intimate moment shared between the couple.First, the bride taps the groom on the shoulder to signal for him to turn around. Then the groom stands to face his beautiful bride. Lastly, the couple share a personal moment. We recommend posing the shot before having the bride approach the groom.

Outside Wedding Ceremony
At Logan & Shane’s wedding they brought in a wooden arbor covered in sunflowers. The DIY wooden arbor fit the vibes perfectly. Additionally, they had a sign that read “pick a seat, not a side, you’re loved by both.’ This wooden heart sign is was one of the many details at the wedding ceremony. We love these custom wooden signs.
Unity Sand Ceremony
The pouring of multicolored sand is symbolic of two people coming together in matrimony. The sand is poured into a glass container and then sealed forever. Logan & Shane had a heart shaped glass that they filled with blue and white sand. We love this symbolic gesture of pouring sand during a wedding ceremony.
Couple Pictures
We recommend that couples plan in about one hour for cocktail hour. While guests are having ordures and drinks, we like to take pictures of the bride and groom. Locations like The Channel Side have lots of photogenic spots for pictures of the newlyweds.
Small Bridal Parties are in!
As we all know, many weddings were postponed or reduced the guest count because of covid-19. However, many couples also chose to have smaller bridal parties. This happy couple chose to only have a maid of honor and a best man for their wedding.
