From its vibrant interiors to its long-standing legacy of hosting presidents, celebrities, and royalty for more than 100 years, every corner of America’s Resort creates a stunning backdrop for a luxury wedding celebration.

As beautiful as it is, wedding photography at The Greenbrier requires real experience. The resort’s signature ambiance includes dim lighting, richly colored rooms, and dramatic design elements that demand both technical skill and a trained creative eye. From red and green ballrooms to pink and orange interiors, knowing how to photograph weddings at The Greenbrier well is not something to leave to chance. It takes experience, preparation, and a deep understanding of how to work within this distinctive space.

The truth is, The Greenbrier wedding staff will help make your day unforgettable no matter who you choose to photograph it. Many talented wedding photographers travel to The Greenbrier each year, and there are several who do beautiful work. But when choosing a Greenbrier wedding photographer, there is something meaningful about hiring someone who knows this resort not only as a venue, but as a place that feels like home.

The Greenbrier is deeply personal to me. My family and I have long treasured this remarkable resort, and I approach every Greenbrier wedding with genuine respect for its traditions, its people, and its history. The staff are familiar faces, the spaces are second nature to me, and that comfort allows me to serve my couples with confidence and ease. When you work with Kelli Carrico Photography, you are choosing an experienced wedding photographer for The Greenbrier who understands how to preserve your celebration with artistry, intention, and care.

Tim and I would be honored to create a wedding photography collection that fits your vision, your needs, and your investment while delivering an experience worthy of The Greenbrier Resort.

PHOTOGRAPHS THAT TELL YOUR STORY

MOMENTS THAT MATTER TO YOU

EXPERIENCE OUR SIGNATURE SERVICE

Before every wedding, our couples receive a short questionnaire—and one question takes priority over all the others: “When it comes to your wedding photography, what matters most to you?”

In a world where some couples don’t want a single posed photograph while others want intentional portraits they know are being created, that answer matters. I’m not there to fill my website with pretty images, chase likes on social media, or collect referrals for future weddings. My only goal is to serve you well. Whatever you want me to focus on is exactly where my attention will be.

Often, this simple question also encourages you to think through what you truly value—because clarity is one of the biggest steps toward a calm, confident, and happy wedding day.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR COLLECTION STARTING AT $6,000

At The Greenbrier Resort, most of our brides choose 10 hours of wedding photography coverage. With “Quiet Time Down South” beginning at 10:00 p.m. each night, Greenbrier wedding days typically start around noon and continue through the reception until you are ready for the after-party, a trip to the casino, or the end of a beautiful evening.

Although 10 hours of coverage is the most common choice for a Greenbrier wedding, we are always happy to tailor your collection to fit both your needs and your budget. Wedding photography collections with Kelli Carrico Photography begin at $6,000 and include 7 hours of coverage. For many couples, that is the perfect fit.

We always encourage brides to schedule a call with Kelli to discuss their priorities, vision, and wedding day flow. This allows us to create a custom photography collection that fits your celebration and delivers an experience that exceeds expectations.
