Arkansas Wedding: The U of A & Graduate Hotel


This glowy summer wedding was so dreamy! They shared the best day ever at The Graduate Hotel, the University of Arkansas campus, and their beautiful Catholic Church in Fayetteville, Arkansas. I am so excited to share a few of my favorite moments from their wedding, days like this remind me why I love being a wedding photographer!


It was such an honor working with the incredible planning team from Amanda Reed Weddings. Kenzie was the planner for the day and she is not only incredible talented, she is so kind and fun to work with. The florals were pretty in pink and crafted by NWA Floral and the reception was going all night with music from The Diamond Empire Band! All together, these were some of the best wedding vendors in NWA and I loved working with them all.
