While the men were goofing off during their photography session, my lovely bridesmaids and I were working our best model poses.
Like Mr. H, I took individual photos with each of my ladies.
We also took a few accessory shots including the handmade vintage brooch jewelry, our metallic shoes, and handkerchiefs.
I’ll let y’all in on a little secret. You may have noticed that this set of photos was missing a little something: our bouquets. At the time, our flowers were actually missing. Somehow when the florist delivered the men’s boutonnieres, she forgot to unload the bouquets. Luckily our coordinator, Liz, immediately took care of the situation and made sure the flowers arrived pre-ceremony. These next few shots were actually taken after Mr. Hawk and I were married!
Even though they were late, I’m so in love with our flowers!
The classic jumping shot. Hooray for bouquets!
Do you have any specific poses or shots you plan to have photographed with your bridesmaids?

Mrs. Hawk, I feel like I’m going to have a lot of comments on your recaps gushing about how stunning they are, but I must say it again: everything is SO BEAUTIFUL! Love your flowers, your hankies, you, your girls…it’s all just so beautiful 
I would have been freaking out about missing flowers- kudos to you for keeping your cool! Also- the yellow of those dresses is a GORGEOUS color!
Love the cheery yellow dresses on your ladies, makes me smile every time I see them 
I so didn’t notice the missing bouquets! The yellow is so happy and cheerful – I love it!
Gorgeous! That jumping shot is so cute… I love everyone’s shoes lined up on the ground. Adorable!! And I’m not usually a fan of yellow, but those BM dresses are just so happy and fun!
Thanks for showing those beautiful handkerchiefs! I love that idea!
How smart to get shots of all the accessories! Wish I would have thought of that!
@RapunzelRapunzel: You are so sweet! Thank you!
@castlehyde: The dresses are J. Crew.

The South has definitely earned a special place in my heart (alongside my Virginia born and bred fiance, of course!). We are planning a traditional Christian ceremony at my alma mater in historic Williamsburg, Virginia, followed by a rocking reception filled with Southern cooking and vintage/shabby chic details. When we’re not wedding planning, we enjoy spending time with our three dogs, going for runs together, watching plenty of football (or baseball depending on the season), and sampling new wine.
