From Maggie Fortson Photography: This wedding was all influenced by the brides love for antiques and creative decor! Amy and Mike, the bride and groom, have been high school sweet hearts and waited for this day for a long time. I just loved all their hand picked touches for the reception. She shopped for old keys for wedding favors and had cameras and old books spread out throughout the tables. The wedding took place at sunset outdoors of a mansion called the “Narnia Estate”. It was a perfect day with a perfect couple!
