Laura & Jonathon | Big Cedar Wedding

August 18, 2021 by Virginia

Laura & Jonathon’s Big Cedar Wedding

I was thrilled to be part of Jonathon and Laura’s Big Cedar Wedding this summer. The bride wore white, the groom wore navy blue, and they were surrounded by family and friends who had traveled from several states to support them on their big day.

Technically, Jonathon and Laura were already married. However, with deployment and then a pandemic, they had to wait a while to celebrate! They said they did everything backward, but I think it worked out perfectly!

Laura and Jonathan chose Big Cedar Lodge for their beautiful wedding ceremony.

What is Big Cedar Lodge? It’s not your typical hotel or resort property. Instead, it is a beautiful destination for weddings with an incredible setting nestled among the Ozark Mountains near Table Rock Lake; a perfect spot for Laura & Jonathan’s intimate ceremony with close family and friends in attendance.

Big Cedar Wedding Photographers

My favorite part about Laura and Jonathon’s wedding is that they did things their own way. They had no officiant, they did a First Look, and they made plenty of time for photos of the two of them plus plenty of photos for their guests.

As a Branson wedding photographer, this made me happy! Laura and Jonathon were the sweetest couple and so photogenic too!

Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t take beautiful photos at noon, because I think this Big Cedar wedding proves that you can. I know a picture says 1000 words, so I’ll let you decide.

Big Cedar is the perfect backdrop for weddings with beautiful mountain views, immaculate landscaping, and of course, Table Rock Lake!

Let’s be honest though, these two would look good no matter what the scenery!

Laura and Jonathon were up for hiking all over the grounds at Big Cedar. Even though it was July and well over 90 degrees! Plus, Laura did it in heels!

The waterfalls at Big Cedar are one of my favorite photo spots.

The Amish Bridge is another favorite. It’s a bit of a hike but well worth it. Don’t worry, you can also drive as there is parking nearby!

The staff at the Worman House restaurant was kind enough to let us come up and take photos on their balcony as they got ready to open. I’m so glad we did!

If you're local, you know it's been raining for da If you're local, you know it's been raining for days! Would you believe that I drove in a very low visibility downpour the whole way to this session, only for the rain to disappear 5 minutes before arriving, giving us pretty much exactly the amount of time we needed with no rain to get all the photo combinations they wanted!? 😄 I work fast, but luck was on our side! We got some great photos for the Brake Family!

Yesterday was spent at Dogwood Canyon with the Cro Yesterday was spent at Dogwood Canyon with the Cross family getting these adorable family portraits! I promised George and Henry that I would make them a special "moon" photo when they wanted photos on this giant rock. Since I haven't been to the moon yet, I had to come up with my best guess as to what it would look like if I took their portraits there! Hopefully they like it! 😆

Missouri weather can be so unpredictable, and our Missouri weather can be so unpredictable, and our forecast called for rain at our originally scheduled session time, but thankfully Zach was able to move it earlier in the day without Megan suspecting anything! She said yes!! And the rain held off the entire time we were shooting! It was a little cold, but definitely the perfect proposal to start the 2023 season! 😍 Congratulations Zach and Megan!!
