bridlewood of madison – Meridith Lee Photography

Mr & Mrs Mercier’s summer wedding at Bridlewood of Madison was full of joy and laughter! My team and I enjoyed laughing right along with this fun loving bridal party and family!!

Nichole & Austin’s wedding was extra special for me because my husband was the officiant! This was Lee’s first wedding to officiate, and his first time to see me in action on a wedding day! It was so much fun to be able to work together!!

We have loved getting to know Nichole and Austin during their marriage mentoring sessions. The wedding day was so much more fun after getting to know them over zoom meetings and a double date together!

The Details

Nichole & Austin chose the beautiful Bridlewood of Madison for their wedding and reception venue. Every detail of the day was carefully chosen to highlight Nichole’s elegant style. From the sparkle on her shoes, to the delicate lace on her dress, every detail created the perfect setting.

Getting Ready & First Looks

First looks are such a special time on a wedding day! I absolutely love capturing the emotion of a mother helping her daughter into her wedding dress, and a father seeing his baby girl in her wedding dress for the first time. A private first look for a bride and groom can not only help calm nerves, but it gives them time to actually be together on this special day.

Mr & Mrs Weddle’s Bridlewood of Madison wedding was an absolute dream to capture! Their plans have changed several time leading up to the wedding due to COVID. And at the ninth hour the ceremony was moved indoors due to rain in the forecast. Flexibility was certainly the theme for Elizabeth & Andrew as they planned their wedding day! But no virus nor storm could put a damper on this wedding day!

Instead of the large wedding they originally planned, Elizabeth & Andrew had an elegant and intimate ceremony and reception. Smaller intimate weddings are quickly becoming my new favorite! Seeing a bride and groom have the freedom to walk from table to table to speak to each guest warmed my heart!

Elizabeth and Andrew’s Bridlewood of Madison Wedding Day included a more relaxed timeline. They had time to soak in and enjoy every moment with the people who mean the most to them. The atmosphere of JOY swept us all up in the festivities!

Elizabeth and Andrew, it was such an honor to be part of your Bridlewood of Madison Wedding! It is clear that your marriage is being built upon the rich spiritual legacies of both the Weddle and Buford families.

As I have edited your images, I have prayed for you and for your marriage. I pray that you will be the chord of three strands that Dr. Futral spoke of at your wedding. I pray that the JOY of the LORD will be your STRENGTH, and that you will continue to allow Him to lead and guide your every decision.
