Mackey House Weddings Savannah Photographer

07/23/2017

Mackey House weddings are some of my favorite because of many amenities that they offer. This house sits nestled minutes away from downtown Savannah, and since Dream Weaver Photos has been their preferred photographer for over 8 years – I know all the secrets places for amazing, southern-inspired photographs. In fact, you can look through my (Dream Weaver Photos) previous Mackey House photos of weddings here: Dream Weaver Photos Mackey House Wedding Photographer. These are my favorite reasons why I love photographing at this hidden house in the woods:

Location: Mackey House is about 15 mins away from the city of Savannah but when you arrive, you feel like you are in the heart of southern grace.
Picturesque: Driving down the winding road, you’ll see a huge oak tree that I have used time and time again for first look photos or the perfect backdrop for your wedding party. The Mackey house front stairs and awesome red couch can be used for any theme. Check out this 1920’s themed wedding I photographed here. The grooms suit and the bride’s head piece made for a true amazing blast from the past! Even night photos at the Mackey House are beautiful! It is very well light and with the right photographer, you can get some beautiful long exposure photos with no blur and really capture that light. Here is a shot from my couple Katie& Steven (who have two kids now!) they gave me about 10 mins and we hit every evening spot out there without any interruption from their reception!
Parking: Tons of space for your guests to park for free!
Space: Speaking of space, the Mackey House has a pavilion, I mentioned the big tree for photos – next to the tree is a beautiful white fence for more photos, always green grass ceremony site, directly above is the deck – perfect for dancing and eating! Michelle with Improvisions has decorated 90% of all my weddings I have photographed at the Mackey House and she is amazing. Inside the home is great for the cake cutting and more eating. (If you clicked that link, you would have seen the most beautiful “naked cake” you’ve ever seen!)
DIAMOND DAVE! (VIP Entertainment) – He is one of my favorite amenities about the Mackey house. Dave makes EVERYTHING run smoothly. He is kind, fun, professional and he is so easy to work with. More than “just a DJ”….Dave will even provide games like this one at your wedding for even more entertainment for your guests, Dave is your best friend, from the rehearsal to that sparkler exit, Dave helps in every way. We’ve been friends for over 8 years and I adore working with him.

For all those reasons, I really love photographing at the Mackey house in Savannah, Ga. Beautiful wedding venue – inside and out. Hopefully you will book me since I’ve got more photo secret spots that I will only share with you!

Dream Weaver Photo was truly a blessing for our elopement ceremony. Mrs. Angie showed up on time and went above and beyond to make sure that our day was well captured in photos. Thank you so much everyone 💗

Jamie and Chris did a great job on our surprise engagement photo shoot. We loved the photos and they were easy to work with. We will definitely be considering them for wedding photos if we come back to Savannah for the wedding!

I just wanted to start with first and for most thanks for saving our day back in October of 2021…. Our photographer we had booked canceled on us not Once, but Twice! Through email at that….. With us not being local to where we were getting married, we wanted to do engagement photos with our wedding photographer. Just to make SURE! They were the one we wanted to use for our BIG DAY! because pictures for me was SO important. Thank you so much for capturing our wedding day so beautifully. Your attention to detail and professionalism meant that we were able to relax, knowing that our wedding photographs would be in good hands. Your relaxed, personable approach made us feel very welcome when we first met you. We are so glad that you answered your phone and were able to squeeze us into your schedule as I was was in full panic mode! Working with you was a highly enjoyable experience. As a photographer, you had the ability to interpret our vision in a way that was non-intrusive and natural. We deeply appreciate all your work will be cherished for the duration of our lives. You have such a gift, and we are so thankful you shared it with us. Your ability to conduct a photoshoot with patience and kindness and the time it took for you to catch those precious moments. It is clear that you enjoy what you do, and that enthusiasm made it a pleasant experience for everyone. Which we didn’t have a big wedding and SO many of them said they noticed you knew what you was doing. 😊. I got not only a photographer I got a coordinating photographer. (I’m glad you had I all figured out, because I was just going with it). You knew exactly what to do and was quick at snapping people into their places. LoL We were beyond excited to receive our sneak peek photographs from you, in just a few days. They are superb and we love your innovative style and artistic eye. You are officially our favorite photographer!!!!! 😁

Savannah will forever hold a place in our hearts thanks to Jamie and Chris. Arriving at Wormsloe, I had no idea I would be leaving engaged. Jamie, worked with my now fiancé a few days prior, to create a magical surprise proposal. She made it so effortless for him to plan from afar (Buffalo, NY) & the process was seamless. She captured every moment from the happy tears, to the laughs. Thank you Jamie for being part of our special day & for truly making this surprise happen.

Working with Jamie and Dream Weaver was without question, the right choice! From the initial interaction, Jamie was responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. We had a group of 16 coming together to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary - 8 adults and 8 children - Jamie created a fun experience for all involved. Full disclosure, we did have a challenge (the card lost the initial photos); however, the way that Jamie handled the situation is why this remains a 5 star review. She worked with our schedule, did a complete re-shoot and even brought a second photographer to ensure we were going to get what she had promised. The end result is exactly what we wanted - 3 generations captured and a 50th anniversary celebration to be remembered. Thank you Jamie!
