Wedding at Gheens Foundation Lodge in Louisville, KY
A Louisville Wedding at Saint Margaret Mary + Gheens Foundation Lodge
A Hot June Wedding Filled with Love, Family, and Dancing
There’s something magical about a wedding day where the joy is so tangible you can feel it in the air—even if that air is 90 degrees and humid. This hot June wedding at Gheens Foundation Lodge in Louisville, KY was full of beauty, emotion, and celebration from start to finish.
A Sacred Ceremony at Saint Margaret Mary
The day began with a heartfelt Catholic Mass at Saint Margaret Mary, where Will + Alissa exchanged vows surrounded by many loved ones. The church was filled with emotion as friends and family looked on—some traveling from across the country to be part of this special day. The ceremony honored tradition and faith, grounding the couple’s love in something deep and meaningful.
A Large Bridal Party Full of Support and Celebration
With a big bridal party by their side, there was never a dull moment. From getting ready to walking down the aisle and cheering the couple on at the reception, this group brought the energy. It’s always such a gift to see a couple so loved and supported—not just by family, but by an entire village of friends who clearly mean the world to them.
Reception at Gheens Foundation Lodge in The Parklands
After the ceremony, the celebration continued at the beautiful Gheens Foundation Lodge in The Parklands. Tucked away in nature, the lodge is surrounded by tall trees and wildflowers—a perfect blend of indoor comfort and natural beauty. On this hot June day, the air conditioning was definitely appreciated, but so was the sense of being immersed in the outdoors without the heat.
Dancing, Joy, and a Packed Dance Floor
When I say this group partied—I mean it. The dance floor was packed all night long with guests who were ready to celebrate the newlyweds. From emotional toasts to wild dance moves, the reception was filled with laughter, fun, and so much love. It’s always such a joy to photograph couples who truly enjoy their day, surrounded by people who are just as excited to be there.
