Who never wanted to witness a dreamy mountain wedding? For countless couples, nature always offers the perfect setting for their special day. On September 20, 2024, Alexis and James brought their vision to life. They exchanged vows amidst breathtaking mountain views in a celebration of love and unity. Although it was another heat surge in AR, with a high of 92 for the day the celebration was full of joy, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
Royal Ridge Barn in Royal, AR, is a stunning property with breathtaking mountain views. Inside, the barn is equally enchanting, featuring twinkle lights and florals elegantly hanging above the center of the dance floor. Despite the heat, we made the most of the beautiful venue. We spend as much time as possible in the air conditioning area. It is to keep the bride and bridesmaids’ hair and makeup flawless throughout the day.
Sweet Bridal Portraits to Remember: Downtown Session with Alexis
Before the ceremony, Alexis asked me to play along with a little prank on James. She wanted me to convince him that she suddenly wanted to do a first look. The twist? James’s “first look” wasn’t going to be with her—it was with his best man dressed in a wedding gown! It was such a hilarious way to tease her future husband!
James was going to give his bride a first look with him, although he still did not want to see her. So, he kept his eyes closed. After some coaxing, he opened his eyes to find his 6’8” best man standing in the place where he thought he would find his beautiful fiancé.

His best man finally dressed after sharing some laughs and a few light-hearted moments. We were able to squeeze in some fun groomsman portraits just before the ceremony. The dreamy mountain wedding ceremony was heartwarming—full of emotion, with not a dry eye in sight. The reception followed suit with stunning decorations and the food was great, thanks to Pasta J’s in Benton, AR. Additionally, our bride and her bridal party looked radiant, all thanks to Bailey at The Beauty Bandit for creating their flawless looks. It was the perfect combination of laughter, love, and beauty. As a result, making the day more unforgettable.
The energy at the celebration was truly unforgettable. The dance floor was always full, with guests of all ages enjoying the moment enthusiastically and joyfully. Laughter filled the air, and the sound of music kept everyone on their feet all night long. But what touched everyone’s hearts were the heartfelt toasts from family and friends. Each word spoken filled the room with love, memories, and admiration, and soon, emotion overwhelmed everyone. Many eyes were teary, touched by the happiness and connection that filled the couple’s special day. The celebration was filled with genuine moments that everyone would remember for years.
