Hayden Olivia Bridal Gown for Romantic Separk Mansion Wedding

August 17, 2021

Congratulations to Jessie and Steven! Their Separk Mansion wedding day was one of my favorites to photograph. From the stunning navy details to all of the beautiful emotions throughout the day, their wedding day is one I’ll never forget.

Jessie was such a beautiful bride. She just radiates joy and happiness – and she has the best sense of humor. I’m not exaggerating when I say her smile just lit up the room. And can we talk about her Hayden Olivia bridal gown?! She chose a gorgeous Hayley Paige bridal ballgown and it was perfect for their romantic wedding day! When I walked into the getting ready suite to start capturing details for the day, I loved listening to the laughter and fun the ladies were having.

And then they gave me the details… and let me just say, I’m OBSESSED! Jessie and Steven chose some elegant details to bring their day to life at Separk. When it was time for Jessie to get into her dress, everyone was a little emotional, as she’d recently lost her mother. In honor of her mom, Jessie recreated a photo by the window in the bridal suite. It was really special and I’m honored she trusted me with such a moment.

Separk Mansion Wedding

Jessie and Steven wanted to have a private first look and a chance to exchange their vows personally before the ceremony. I thought it was such a sweet idea – and they met inside one of the mansion’s spaces. They were SO excited to see each other and even though emotions were running high, it was the perfect moment. Steven received a watch from Jessie before their first look – one of his groomsmen actually helped choose it. How special is that?!

Afterwards, we met up with their bridal party (who I just adored!). Together, we captured portraits along the mansion’s grounds before it was time for their ceremony. I absolutely love the ceremony space at Separk Mansion. It’s beautiful, outdoors, and just works so well. As the guests headed to their cocktail hour, I stole Jessie and Steven for a few more portraits together. There’s just something magical about those moments after you’re announced husband and wife!

Jessie and Steven ended the night with a sparkler exit, which was beautiful! They were just so in love as they waved goodbye to their guests and I’m so happy for them both. Congratulations again, Jessie and Steven! It’s so obvious you two belong together and I know you’re going to have a wonderful life ahead of you!
