I knew I would like Andrew when we met at Starbucks and he got the largest frappuccino they offer! Little did I know how much I would come to love this couple! We had the best time at their Harlem, Georgia engagement session and have been really looking forward to this wedding! Taffy and Andrew are both teachers and decided to plan their wedding for summer break (this way they get to spend all summer together)! The location was set for the gorgeous
Hopeland Gardens in Aiken, South Carolina and the reception was planned for next door at the
Rye Patch. This past Saturday was gorgeous and not too hot! I had the best time hanging out with Taffy and her wonderful bridesmaids most of the early afternoon. My second shooter, Mandy, was able to hang out with the guys and make sure they were at the altar on time! Here are a few images that I got from the day! I can't wait to show everyone all the others! Please leave a comment for Andrew and Taffy and let them know what you think!
The girl that did Taffy's make-up, did an awesome job!
This dress was so gorgeous!
Taffy was beautiful and Megan did a great job.
Some of the bridesmaid putting on finishing touches
Taffy had her 3 sisters, 3 friends from college, and 1 friend from high school to stand by her side
Taffy wore her Grandmother's pearls
Taffy was one fierce bride!!
I love this image of everyone walking to the ceremony
Andrew waiting for his beautiful bride. One time during the reception I overheard Andrew talking to another gentleman at the wedding. I don't think Andrew knew I heard, but what I heard made my heart so happy and brought tears to my eyes. He sure does love his bride and does not have a problem telling anyone!
So happy I was able to photograph at such a beautiful location
Mr. and Mrs.

The girls sang "Total Eclipse of the Heart" to Andrew... it was great!
