North Georgia Wedding | Brianna + Ethan

A North Georgia Wedding is romantic enough, just for the location but the backdrop has nothing on this couple. Brianna + Ethan have a romance straight out of a Nicholas Sparks Novel. In fact, I don’t even think Nick could’ve written their story any better, if he wanted too.

How They Met

Back in 2019 Brianna harvested a big buck and was printed in the GON magazine, which showcases a lot of nice hunts in Georgia. Ethan happened to see her in the magazine and realized he knew her. Later that week, he saw Brianna around school and ran to open the door for her and as soon as she turned around to thank him, he extended his hand and said, “Hi, I’m Ethan, did you get that big buck that’s in the GON magazine?” and the rest was history! They have been together since they were both sixteen years old. Ethan proposed to her in May of 2022 with the Smokey Mountains in the background.

If you don’t like the weather, in Georgia, just give it another day

Despite the tornado warning we had, a day before the wedding, it was a gorgeous day to have a North Georgia Mountain wedding! The sky was so blue, I heard some of the guests say how fake it looked. And the clouds had great definition to them. Outside it was sunny with a slight breeze. It was definitely the kind of temperature you could spend all day outside.

Working through Brianna’s wedding day timeline was so easy, given how organized and prepared she was for this day. Brianna was so laid back and easy going before the ceremony. Something just sits well within your soul when you know God’s chosen the right person to lead you. This couple has a strong group of Christians around them who lifted them in prayers this day, before, during and after the ceremony. I know they will have a blessed marriage and accomplish great things together.
