If only there was an official Pinnacle Country Club Wedding Photographer, I’d wanna be it. My experience at the cherished NWA venue has always been amazing. Not only is the staff lovely, but the grounds are spectacular. From my very first wedding there more than 10 years ago, to Georgia and Ben’s wedding there yesterday… it has to be one of my all-time favorites. It helps that I live close too!

When I arrived at Ben and Georgia’s wedding for the day-long festivities, she shared some really special details that she wanted to include in her flat lay image. One of the most special was the string of pearls gifted from her grandmother.

Wedding coordinator Aubrey helped being Georgia’s vision to life, and this Pinnacle Country Club Wedding Photographer got to help capture it! I love the long table leading into the fireplace. By arranging the seating this way, it opened up the floorplan for a really nice flow, and created space for a dance floor in the center of the room.

I think my first act as Pinnacle Country Club Wedding Photographer would be to keep this hydrangea wall active and vibrant all year long.

Georgia is as sweet as she is beautiful… and after meeting her parents, it was easy to see how. They are L-O-V-E-L-Y. Here are a couple images of mom helping her into her dress.

For the first look, I thought the hydrangea wall behind the Pinnacle clubshouse would be the perfect spot. Not only was it a part of her color story, but the same florals were included throughout the reception decor.

I’ve said it at least a thousand times: I love an emotional groom. Ben showed his emotions during his first look with Georgia, which melted my heart. It speaks volumes to how great Ben is, and how much he adores his bride.

I also switched up my angle and photographed a couple portraits at the same spot.

Then, we popped inside to June, Pinnacle Country Clubs new bar and restaurant. The vibes are awesome, and worked so well for wedding portraits.

And of course, there was a wedding! My favorite shot is this one as Ben and Georgia headed back up the aisle as husband and wife!Look at the joy not just on their faces, but on the guests’ as well.

We had a few extra minutes, so I decided we should do an impromptu bridal portrait session of Georgia. Is she not stunning?

The Pinnacle Country Club is a dreamy wedding venue. It has stunning views of the golf course, amazing lighting all year round, and the space you see below which is great for receptions.

As we neared sunset, I pulled the couple away for a few minutes to create some magic. The dreamy golden light set the scene for some of the most romantic wedding portraits I’ve ever seen, let alone taken.

Okay… this is fun… I just imagine the girls on the right taking a photo like the one of the left at their own daughters’ weddings some day. Isn’t this cute?

A few more golden hour portraits of our lovely couple.

Late night reception details might be one of my favorite new types of shots to capture. Doesn’t this feel so romantic?

And then it was party time. Brock Entertainment made sure everyone had an amazing time on the dance floor.

But wait… there’s more…

Tomorrow I’m going to share one of my favorite portraits of my entire career. I’ll share the story behind it. And how it almost didn’t happen!

Talk to you soon,
Dale
