A wedding set on Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga in October couldn’t be more perfect, especially with Jessica and Esteban. These two love birds grew up in Chattanooga and are high school sweethearts! They went to the University of Georgia together (Go Dawgs!) and have been inseparable ever since.
I ran into Jessica when she was a freshman at the University of Georgia and I was graduating (it’s CRAZY how time flies). She reached out to me when her and Esteban got engaged, and I was super excited to photograph their fall wedding in Chattanooga, TN.
They tied the knot at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church (their home parish) and had their reception at the iconic Lookout Mountain Fairyland Club. The weather forecast could not have been more perfect, with its crisp fall temperatures and beautiful sunny skies.
I met up with the couple at Hotel Indigo in downtown Chattanooga (Jessica works for IHG so it made perfect sense for them to get ready there). Her 10 bridesmaids were so sweet and excited for her and made the day so fun! I loved their mixed green satin dresses with the romantic white florals by Fox and Fern.
Jessica and Esteban had a sweet first look at Lookout Mountain Club where they read handwritten vows to each other, and we headed to the church after some portraits. Their Catholic wedding Mass incorporated the Las Arras and the El Lasso traditions into their ceremony, which was really special. Their wedding reception back at Lookout Mountain was beautifully designed by W Events, featuring neutral and gold tones, velvet textures, and lots of candles. Myryah with W Events absolutely crushed the planning and was so awesome to work with! DJ Dero with D Street Entertainment was awesome too and kept the party dancing all night. And of course, we ended the night with a beautiful sparkler exit!
It was truly the wonderful day that Jessica & Esteban deserved, and I couldn’t be happier for them.
