Wedding at Patterson Civic Center – Jordan and Keaton

November 10, 2023

Where do I even start with Keaton and Jordan’s wedding?  From their beautiful outdoor ceremony to the fun-filled party and all the moments in between, their wedding at the Patterson Civic Center was a dream!  I knew from the afternoon I spent with them for their engagement photos that I was going to fall in love with these two!

Jordan and her girls got ready at Nineteen06, an AirBNB located in Patterson, while Keaton and his guys also got ready in an AirBNB just down the street.  For their first look, they met up in the courtyard of Nineteen06 to not only see each other but to exchange private vows with each other.  It was so sweet to witness and once they were done, we were startled by the cheers of Jordan’s friends as we looked up and saw them watching from the upstairs window!

Jannine and Pernell of Elegant Events of the South had set up the most dreamy ceremony location just outside of the Civic Center.  Just as the sunset turned golden, their ceremony began, leaving Jordan and Keaton with the most beautiful glow behind them as they became husband and wife.  The officiant, Pastor Alex Foust, came all the way from Millsaps College, where Jordan and Keaton met, to do the ceremony.   He also talked about how they met during a Fellowship of Christian Athletes event at the college.   Jordan played softball and Keaton played baseball, so sports are an important part of their lives – then and now!

The dance floor stayed PACKED all night.   I say that often of weddings, but the guests at Jordan and Keaton’s wedding literally didn’t leave the dance floor all night.  From the first song to the last, everyone danced and sang, all night long!  I always ask my couples to describe their wedding in 3 words.   Jordan said, “packed, crazy and fun.”  And that is exactly how I would describe their night!

After a quick run through their guests holding sparklers and cheering them off, Jordan’s uncle drove them away in his beautiful, classic Jaguar.

On top of getting to work with Jordan, Keaton and their amazing family and friends, I also got to work with some of my favorite vendors, including Jannine of Elegant Events of the South as well as Blayne and Brad of Our Story Films.  It had been way to long since we’ve all worked together!

I hope you had the best honeymoon and congratulations again Mr. and Mrs. Page!
