Spencer & Paolo's Romantic & Elegant Gay Wedding at Primrose Cottage in Roswell, GA

Spencer and Paolo’s wedding at Primrose Cottage in Roswell, GA felt like something out of a film—and not just because we shot it that way. The day unfolded like a beautifully intentional love story, rich in cultural blending, family legacy, and joy that lingered long after the music faded.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully chosen. Primrose Cottage, with its historic charm and sweeping Southern garden, set the tone for a celebration that was equal parts refined and deeply emotional.

Two Families, One Beautiful Celebration

One of the most moving parts of this wedding was how it honored the merging of Spencer’s American roots and Paolo’s Italian heritage. The guest list reflected that: old friends, proud parents, visiting cousins, joyful chosen family—all gathering under one roof to celebrate love without conditions.

From the vows to the dinner toasts, you could feel it: this wasn’t just a party. It was a powerful coming-together. And it was so elegant—without ever feeling too formal or stiff.

“Love is Love” — Thoughtful Cartier Details

Spencer and Paolo paid attention to the quiet parts of the wedding day—the pieces that often get overlooked. Their detail flat lay included a stunning invite suite stamped with “Love is Love,” Cartier rings and watches, heirloom cufflinks, and subtle nods to their style as individuals and as a couple.

We approached those shots with the same care they put into curating them—leaning into film-inspired edits that gave everything a nostalgic, timeless vibe. These weren’t just objects—they were extensions of who they are.

Film-Style Romance: Photos That Feel Like a Movie

We knew right away this wasn’t the kind of day that called for trendy filters or overly stylized edits. Instead, we leaned into the cinematic, the honest, the soft-focus warmth of film-inspired photography.

Their portraits—taken in the golden light filtering through Primrose Cottage’s gardens—feel like stills from a love story you don’t want to end. We even created a movie poster-style image for them afterward, because honestly? Their story deserved the screen.

A Reception That Was Pure, Unfiltered Joy

Let’s talk about the party—because wow.Once the music kicked in and the lights dimmed, the energy shifted in the best possible way. People were dancing, laughing, clinking glasses, holding hands. There was a palpable sense of joy, not just celebration.

We photographed it the way it felt: a little hazy, a little wild, totally love-soaked. With color, motion, and just the right amount of blur to match the energy of the night.

No one held back. And it’s in those moments—sweaty, glowing, real—that you remember why weddings matter.
