Parkside Resort Wedding Pigeon Forge — Kara + Ajay
The first time that I spoke to Kara on the phone, she stressed to me how important it was for her and Ajay to have amazing photos throughout the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and we were more than happy to accommodate that request. You'll see glimpses of the Elkmont area as well as the beautiful Magnolia Venue and Parkside Resort's Sky View Lodge and Pavilion through this snapshot of Kara and Ajay's big day.
This sweet couple found us and traveled all the way from Milwaukee, where they met and dated for eight years, to get married in the midst of this beautiful mountain backdrop. The two insisted on an intimate wedding with only their closest friends and family, and they wanted a very comfortable and laid-back atmosphere. They chose the mountains because of their love for the national park and all of their fond memories hiking and exploring the area. Since Kara and Ajay didn't have a bridal party, we knew it was important to give them an abundance of couple's photos together in a variety of settings—while letting the gorgeous scenery speak for itself as they created new memories together, this time in a custom-made classic suit and a gorgeous flowing gown.
Despite Ajay's proposal not going according to plan (as he was supposed to pop the question on a romantic trip but instead proposed after the ring delivery was delayed on a random Tuesday night), everything on their wedding day—from the weather, to the decor, to the guests—was simply perfect. We couldn't be happier to have been part of this special occasion for such a kind couple, and we hope you enjoy this mountain wedding as much as we did!
