The Gilman Event Hall was such a cute space for this rehearsal dinner.  Kelsey and Hal were up for some pre-dinner shots and the West Village of Chattanooga did not disappoint.  Capturing the rehearsal dinner is such a great way to to get to see all the anticipation and excitement before the big day.

Kelsey and Hal are truly so sweet.  You could feel their happiness and excitement.  Plus their bridal party was  all in for them.  The Gilman Event Hall was beautifully decorated and has such a great location.

We all know that the wedding is the DAY.  Yet, there is such an added benefit in capturing the in between moments.  You have the excitement in the engagement, but there is such a high that comes in capturing all the joy your people feel in an engagement party.  The rehearsal dinner gives you that same high.  Anticipation of what comes next.

As a sucker for all things love, any chance I get to capture a couple in their element, I am taking it.  It is my hope that all of the love the felt on this day be amplified in the years to come.
