Truly Classic Revolution Mill Wedding

Truly Classic Revolution Mill Wedding in Greensboro, North Carolina

I’m always a sucker for wedding venues with a historic past and The Colonnade at Revolution Mill is definitely full of charm! The Revolution Mill was opened in 1898 and was the first flannel mill in the South. It’s been completely renovated to feature a wide variety of apartments, businesses, restaurants, and a wedding venue.

Cody & Courtney were in love with gorgeous private courtyard and inviting indoor space with original maple floors, enormous windows, and exposed brick for their wedding. They knew they’d be having a Revolution Mill wedding as soon as the set foot in the space!

I honestly was wowed by the options for wedding day portraits throughout the wedding venue! We had ample indoor space for getting ready photos, lots of natural light coming from floor to ceiling windows, and the outdoor options were endless! A Revolution Mill wedding means that you absolutely have to have a newlywed portrait in front of the iconic iron gates at the venue as well as some in front of the gorgeous fountain. I was all too happy to capture those portraits for Cody & Courtney on their wedding day!

I knew when I first met up with Cody and Courtney that it was bound to be a perfect match. They are such an adorable couple who share an unspoken understanding of mutual respect and love for each other. Their Revolution Mill wedding was truly a lovely display of their deep affection and sincerity. It was also one of the prettiest weddings I could have imagined!

Courtney’s bridal gown was so stunning, featuring a scalloped edge neckline, elegant lace details, and an embellished sash. The gown was paired perfectly with a fingertip veil and cream rose bouquet to create a truly iconic wedding day look. They chose deep navy blues and gold decorate the Revolution Mill wedding reception, along with white details. I was absolutely in love the understated elegance of the centerpieces and the single tier, textured wedding cake!

hi, i'm danielle—

In the past 10+ years as a Wedding & Portrait Photographer, I’ve found that, aside from arming myself with my cameras to catch swoon-worthy moments of my couples on their day, I’m also bringing a few other unexpected things. 

Like my tough love mom-voice that will keep your bridal party in check, my air of calm if you’re feeling overwhelmed, and the corniest jokes so no one has the jitters in front of the camera!

Because so much more goes into getting those gorgeous wedding photos than just hitting “click!”

and I'm not just bringing my camera to your big day.

Wanna know what you need for                        
detail photos?

unforgettable

In the hundreds of weddings I’ve photographed, I’ve created as many different flat lays as you can imagine. And so I’ve curated a complete list of must-have items for you to gather so your detail photos are even more special. For the free list, enter your email below:
