Sara and David got engaged in December 2023 and had originally intended to plan the huge wedding Sara always imagined. However, it didn’t take them long to realize exactly what they really wanted: an elegant and intimate dinner party with those who mean the absolute most to them. With guests expecting the huge wedding to come, Sara and David placed their trust in Gretchen Larkan Events who planned and executed the most beautiful surprise wedding at Sunset Lodge in Little Rock, Arkansas. With only some family being in on the secret, the rest of the guests arrived to what they thought was an engagement party… a fantastic one, that is! Once all guests had arrived and mingled, David made the announcement that they hadn’t arrived to an engagement party at all, but rather, their wedding! Once the gasps, laughs and cheers subsided, guests found their seats and the ceremony commenced. Sara and David are truly such a classic couple with exquisite taste, and this entire day reflected them perfectly.
Kind Words from Sara and David
“Cameron & Elizabeth are truly masters of their craft. They captured every big and small detail for our special day. Working with them made us feel so comfortable and natural. They were able to get the moments that we felt in our hearts. Their professionalism and communication is received from the very first interaction. Selecting photographer, for a life event can be very stressful. We had a vision of what we wanted and knew we were trusting them with it. From the first zoom call where we met, I knew immediately our story world be told and love would be captured. I thrive off details, organization, and communication. Cameron & Elizabeth gave us guidance on ideas, locations, clothing, colors, even posing. They communicated with us throughout the process and delivered a stress-free environment. Working with them felt like friends just hanging out. Beautiful people and amazingly talented with a camera.”
