Real Weddings: Bethany + Jason

I simply adore the rich fall colors in Bethany and Jason’s wedding.  Even in the warm Florida autumn, the chocolate brown and burgundy tones feel crisp and fresh, and perfectly embody the season!  Tallahassee’s SouthWood House was the beautiful backdrop for the event, and Forever Photography by Kylene captured all of the lovely images.

Bethany and Jason’s pup Zoe was the “Flower Dog” – look how well-behaved she is!

Bethany’s gown and garter were handmade by a family friend.  Bethany and her mother looked for months to find the “perfect” lace for the gown, and the garter was made with lace from Bethany’s mother’s wedding gown.
