BR Running Club Love Story | Katie | Capital Park Museum

Katie and Andrew chose one of my FAV venues in Baton Rouge to get married at - The Capital Park Museum! It was a GORGEOUS day for an wedding and the couple had the most adorable first look with their dog, I’m so excited to share this wedding captured by Geaux Garcia <3 <3

How did you meet?

Through Varsity Sports, our running group.

The Proposal

We went to Tennessee with Andrew's family for his Ironman in Chattanooga then spent a few days in Gatlinburg. He proposed while we were hiking at a waterfall in the Smoky Mountains!

PRO TIP : Make sure that you get ready at a place with AMPLE light!
The Hilton Baton Rouge is the PERFECT place with so much space and light

What is your advice for
bride’s planning their wedding?

My advice for couples planning their wedding is to get all of the big things out of the way first like choosing vendors, and then you can relax a little before the details come together in the weeks before the wedding. Also, having a wedding coordinator was HUGE for me because she pretty much handled all of the small details leading up to the wedding and I also did not have to do a thing on wedding day! She took care of it all!

We HAVE to take a moment for a first look…. WITH THE PUPPY!

What is one thing you wish you would have known pre-wedding?

Well, everyone always talks about how quickly the day goes, so I did hear that before my wedding but it truly does go by in a blur.
