Rodney and Lavonne

Rodney and Lavonne seem literally made to be together. Just interacting with them during their free engagement shoot one could see that they have known each other for a really long time.  Rodney seemed a little camera shy at first but with Lavonne's persuasive mannerisms it did not take him long to get into the groove.



While I did not expect Lavonne to jet off to Manhattan and shop for her wedding dress and accessories at the swanky Stone Fox Bride Salon, I must say she did quite well by choosing Dunwoody, Georgia's very elegant Villa Christina to host both the ceremony and reception. The former was held in the wonderful private gardens behind the facility and the latter inside the tastefully decorated bar and dining area. It was a night to remember as it should have been.
