Spring Wedding at Cooper Chapel in Bella Vista + Reception at Bike Rack Brewing! | Lindsey and Alex

Spring Wedding Photographs in Northwest Arkansas

It’s been a hot minute since I shared a wedding! So today? Let me brag to y’all about Lindsey and Alex’s gorgeous spring wedding at Cooper Chapel in Bella Vista with the most fun reception at Bike Rack Brewing. Not going to lie: All my weddings are special but this one was extra special. Why’s that? I photographed Lindsey’s senior photographs back when I was pregnant with Henry! I was fairly new to Arkansas, really getting into my photography style, and just still remember feeling so excited + happy after taking Lindsey’s senior photographs. It was just an absolute blast from start to finish.

And ugh! I wish there was a blog of those photos to link but it was one of my last sessions blogged on my old, now unlisted website. So just trust me! The photos were so freaking cute in every single way. But! I digress! Like usual, lol.

Lindsey and Alex were married on an absolutely gorgeous spring day in Northwest Arkansas. The flowers were top notch, the guests were amazing, the colors were popping, and everything about the day was an absolute dream. Lindsey and Alex are so much fun! And if you know me? You know I love a fun couple who just wants to have an awesome wedding. And Lindsey and Alex? They absolutely pulled it off! I adore these two!

My Favorite Part of Lindsey and Alex’s Wedding Day?

The laughter! I love a wedding full of love + laughter and, on their wedding day, Lindsay and Alex were surrounded by both the entire day long. Their family and friends were so thrilled for them, the party vibes were the best, and everything about their day just glowed. I feel so lucky to photograph wedding days in Northwest Arkansas like Lindsey and Alex’s. Like, the longer I shoot weddings, the more I love them. They’re just so special and heartwarming in every single way!

Also, so sorry for the way your cheeks are going to hurt by the end of this blog post. It’s just the vibe here! Lol.
