Bride and Groom with wedding party at Brahma RidgeBride and Groom with wedding party at Brahma Ridge
Joese + Ryan’s beautiful fall wedding at Brahma Ridge Event Center was nothing short of amazing! The day was filled with family, friends, laughter, and lots of love, just as they envisioned.
When I arrived at Brahma Ridge Event Center the feeling of fall was in full effect. The sky was full of clouds, the air was cool with a light breeze, and the late afternoon temperature was dropping rapidly. Here in the mountains of western North Carolina the trees had begun changing color, and the grass was still beautiful bright green in color. It was exactly the type of day Joese and Ryan had hoped for.
As I walked the property to see the ceremony and reception spaces, I could feel the calmness in the air. Worker bees were placing final touches on the decor and food, but all were relaxed in doing so. Brahma Ridge is a place that naturally brings calmness and peace to an event with their rolling hills, wide open spaces, and trickling creek. This is another aspect of the day that Joese and Ryan were looking for and they certainly found it here.
In getting to know Joese and Ryan, I learned that they are two happy souls who love to spend time with family and friends. Their wishes for their wedding day were just as I described- relaxed, fun, and just being together. It was wonderful to see their day come together just as they wished.
Throughout the ceremony and reception, happiness and laughter was abundant. Their loving families and friends shared stories, hugs, and love with this gorgeous couple, making their day complete. As the night drew to a close, I found myself smiling behind my camera, and tapping my foot to local bluegrass tunes. Joese + Ryan’s wedding day was truly amazing, and I am honored to have been a part of it!
Congratulations Joese + Ryan!

Update: Joese + Ryan's kind review on Wedding Wire:
"Wonderful Experience! My wife and I worked with Jessica for our wedding at Brahma Ridge Event Center in Candler, NC. We are from Pennsylvania so we were unable to meet Jessica in person prior to our wedding day but by the time the day arrived we already felt like we knew here and were extremely comfortable leaving the memory of our wedding in her hands. She was a pleasure to work with, extremely communicative, and even sent us little gifts throughout the process that added a really nice touch to the process. I would not look any further if you are weighing options for a photographer for a wedding or any other event. Thank you for everything Jessica!"
