April and David were married on June 5 at Mitchell Plantation in Bella Mina, Alabama. For those of you unfamiliar with the area, Belle Mina is a quaint little town sweetly tucked away between Decatur and Madison. Every time someone said “Mitchell Plantation”, I kept thinking of the author of Gone With the Wind, Margaret Mitchell! The house isn’t quite as impressive as Tara, but it is located on a 450 acre cotton plantation.
April and David tried something we don’t often see at weddings–they held their outdoor ceremony and reception at night! The two opted not to see one another before the exchanging of vows, so we spent our time pre-wedding shooting the individuals and groups (groomsmen and bridesmaids), and also dodging a pretty serious (and random!) rain shower. Luckily, the rain cleared up before guests were scheduled to arrive, and everyone got to glimpse a rainbow.
