Planning a wedding during a pandemic and being unsure of what your wedding day will look like is already difficult enough, but when other unforeseen circumstances show up just a couple weeks before the wedding, it makes it even more challenging. Caroline and Nick had to change all their original wedding plans at the last minute, but I can’t stress enough how much I admire them for being able to do so with smiles on their faces. We ended up in Myrtle Beach with only maybe 20 of their immediate family members and their best man and maid of honor. Their love was so intense it had me getting goosebumps throughout the day and had me crying like a little baby during their vows (even when I watched it back in their wedding video) – and I swear I am immune to weddings at this point, but not this day. Every speech that someone made, every word they spoke to each other, every little moment was just so special. These two are absolutely meant to be together, and I’m so glad that they were still able to have this day, even if it looked a little different than they had planned. I’m grateful for my job for bringing me to people like this. You two will always have a friend in me, and I cannot wait to watch your love story continue.

2020 has been a wild year, and we’ve all lost a lot of our original plans, especially those of you planning weddings. But every now and then, you end up having one of the BEST NIGHTS EVER, and everything comes together just right. It may not have been the full guest count, it may have been moved all outdoors and risked having bad or cold weather, BUT, it still ends up being absolutely perfect. This was one of those weddings. Tania and Matt got married at Wrightsville Manor surrounded by their closest loved ones. If I could write down all the things that I want in a client, Tania and Matt would be exactly that. They were so much fun, they were so laid back, so genuine, they trusted every vendor completely, and they were just an absolute joy to work with. Not only that, but their decor was one of my FAVORITES this year. Their table settings were themed after their favorite books and movies, including, of course, my favorite, Harry Potter! When you tell someone that you’re having Harry Potter themes in your wedding, most people would question that idea because it could be really cheesy. But the way they worked with their florist and event planners (shout out to Designs by Dillon and Bubbly Events) to incorporate those ideas into elegant and classy table settings, was incredible! Hands down one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen at a wedding. But maybe I’m biased. :)

After a beautiful ceremony, everyone danced all night long outside at Wrightsville Manor under a tent of twinkle lights and an EXCELLENT DJ playing all the right music. I wish every wedding day was just like this one. I’m so happy I was able to be a part of it and work with such an awesome couple and such an amazing team of vendors. Thanks for still bringing nights like this, 2020! Congratulations Matt & Tania!!!!

Emma and Kyle got married in Danville, Virginia in September. I met these two in Wilmington awhile back when they found me online and decided to get some couples photos done together while they were on vacation. Shortly after our photos, he proposed! I honestly saw it coming after I met them, because of the way they acted around each other. And I’m so happy Emma reached out again and asked if I would travel to Virginia for their big day. They had originally planned a big wedding at a local brewery, and with covid, decided it best to celebrate with only those closest to them, and moved their wedding to Emma’s parents backyard! I’ve always been a fan of a backyard wedding, and this one did not disappoint. These two have so much fun together and it’s so apparent when you spend time with them. I love their energy and their love and in my opinion, it was the absolute perfect day. Thank you both so much for having me and CONGRATS!!!
