“Always laugh together, especially when you don’t feel like it.”

Niccole + Brian got married at Naylor Hall in Roswell on October 26, 2024. They had their own newspaper for a program and a pink vintage Chevy waiting out front. We had the best time with these two!

Getting Ready

Naylor Hall is a historic home on Canton Street in downtown Roswell, and the rooms inside are so pretty for getting ready. The light pours in through those big windows. Niccole’s gown hung in the doorway while we shot the details, including their very own wedding day newspaper (more on that later).

The First Look

Brian waited for Niccole out on the lawn under the trees. Then we brought Niccole back inside for bridal portraits on that gold settee by the windows.

The Wedding Party

The girls wore champagne satin from Birdy Grey and the guys looked sharp in Men’s Wearhouse. We lined everyone up on the front steps with a copy of the paper, and Niccole + Brian snuck in a kiss behind theirs!

Ceremony on the Front Lawn

The ceremony was right out front on the lawn, facing the columns and front steps of the house. Every guest got a newspaper as their program and Chastain String Quartet played the ceremony music. Then Niccole pulled up in that pink Chevy and her dad walked her down the aisle to Brian. When it was official, the two of them threw their hands straight up in the air!

That Pink Chevy

We could not get enough of that car. It belongs to Brian’s dad, and it was the perfect ride for the day. We took Niccole + Brian back out to it for portraits as the sun got low, and it gave us some of our favorite shots of the day.

The Reception

Their first dance was out on the front porch with everyone watching from the lawn. Then the party moved inside. Chef Cary’s Cuisine handled dinner and dessert was a tower of Nothing Bundt Cakes. Hal Co AV kept the dance floor full all night long. There was a limbo line, a photo booth and giant cutouts of Brian’s face and their dog bouncing around the room. Anyone who needed a break headed out to the fire pit.

The Send-Off

To end the night, guests lined the front steps with light-up wands and Niccole + Brian ran right through them and into the Chevy. What a way to go!

Advice from Niccole + Brian

We asked these two for their best advice for couples getting married. Here’s what they said:

  • Don’t worry about how you think things should be done, do what makes sense for you and your partner.
  • Always laugh together, especially when you don’t feel like it.
  • Be intentional about reminding yourself that your love and respect for your partner should always be bigger than your pride.

Niccole + Brian, thank you for letting us be part of your day. Cheers to forever!
