Congratulations, you're engaged! Now what?

Our guess is that you've got a million things on your mind all at once, so allow us to give you some advice about something very important that you will be doing soon... Taking engagement photos! All you have to do is keep reading for some helpful tips, and your Lily & Lime engagement photographer will take care of the rest.

As summer turns to fall, our palates transition from juicy berries to crisp apples and pears, intuitively knowing what is seasonal and what is best.

The same is true for flowers.

While spring and summer might seem to lend more floral possibilities, the coming months provide an opportunity to play dark against light and create your own bridal style. Think roses, peonies, and orchids. Calla lilies, stargazers and Gerbera daisies fill in for your autumn wedding flowers. Thanks to our talented Lily & Lime wedding photographers, we have some great examples to show you!

“Let them eat cake.”

Marie Antoinette ostensibly coined the phrase in 1789. And while it had more to do with politics than wedding parties… The words stuck. And cake is the nuptial dessert most of us have come to expect.

But what if cake is not your cup of tea, er… Plate of pastry? Thankfully there are lots of creative wedding dessert alternatives, treats so tasty your guests might just forget about cake. Have a look at some dessert options that our Lily & Lime wedding photographers have captured!

While many opt to have their wedding during the summer months, we think weddings in the autumn and winter months can be equally beautiful. They just require a few more accessories to keep warm outside! Thankfully, chilly weather wedding accessories are some of the cutest out there. Take a look at some of our favorites that have been captured by our Lily & Lime wedding photographers!

When planning for your Lily & Lime fall engagement session, it could be a bit of trouble trying to decide what to wear, especially with the weather jumping anywhere from low 40s to low 80s. No worries, we have just the right picks to keep you and your spouse-to-be looking stylish and chic for your autumn engagement photography. 

If you’ve started planning your wedding, you’re probably still getting used to the shockingly high price tags that you can expect with most of the elements involved in creating your dream wedding. It’s only natural that you’ll start looking for places to cut corners, and one of the common places to do so is with the photography. However, before you start booking your best friend’s cousin to take your wedding photos, here are a few things that you might want to consider first.

Second only to walking down the aisle to your husband, one of the most heart-stopping moments of anticipation is the “first look.” First looks are becoming more and more popular as couples aim for more pre-wedding photos. It’s also the perfect time for the bride and groom to get a moment alone before all the hoopla of the day really begins. Captured by our Lily & Lime wedding photographers, these are some of our favorites and can give you a little wedding inspiration for the big day.

Wedding photography is often the first thing to be cut from a couple’s budget, and is the top thing that couples end up regretting not spending more money on further down the line. A quality wedding and reception photographer Lily & Lime can help you to preserve your special day for years to come in a way that makes you feel like you’re reliving the ceremony. If you’re in the process of scoping out wedding photographers for your big day, you no longer have to sacrifice quality for price. Thanks to a new company, Lily & Lime, couples can find everything they want in beautifully simplistic wedding photography packages at a price that doesn’t leave them reconsidering their entire budget.

There’s a nip in the air. The crackle of drying leaves. Sweaters and scarves pulled from their summer slumber.

There’s no doubt about it, it’s fall.

As the days grow shorter, entertaining moves indoors. Stick-to-your-ribs savories replace lighter fare. But that doesn’t mean you have to trade in festive cocktails for heavy ales and stouts (not unless you want to.) With seasonal and local flavors you can create festive fall cocktails certain to warm your bones.

Weddings are complicated; there are so many things to plan and coordinate, it can become overwhelming. That’s when most couples begin simplifying the process, often by cutting certain things from their budget. One aspect of the wedding that doesn’t need to be complicated is the photography. Lily & Lime offers couples an updated approach to their wedding photography that allows them to get elegant, high quality photos of their special day without the frustration that comes with hiring a normal photographer, and without the expensive price tag.
