Alyssa and Jessie’s Windy Hill wedding in Simpsonville, South Carolina was blazing hot, but that did not stop their family and friends from dancing the night away to celebrate these two becoming husband and wife.

Being a wedding photographer allows me, and my wonderful team, to be a part of all the behind the scenes moments. I get to hear all of the stories that the bridesmaids are sharing about their friend while they get ready, see the parents quietly watching with pride throughout the day, and be the first one to say “Congratulations” to the couples as they walk back out of the ceremony. It is a special job, and one I do not take for granted.

Nichole, my associate photographer, captured Alyssa and Jessie’s special day. Alyssa and Jessie did not see each other before their ceremony, so Nichole got to hear both of their families separately gushing over who their child was going to spend their life with. It was a day full of heartfelt family moments, and Rebecca Hicks Photography was so honored to capture it all.

Alyssa and Jessie, thank you for letting us be a part of your journey! Enjoy some of my favorites from their beautiful Windy Hill wedding planned by the wonderful Upstate I Do team.
