Airlie Gardens Wedding Photographer | Emily & Michael

What an absolute DREAM of a day. Emily and Michael had their wedding at the STUNNING Airlie Gardens in Wilmington, North Carolina. They hired the most incredibly talented team of vendors, and their combined efforts really brought their wedding vision to life. Every single detail was gorgeous, from her dress to the seating chart to the themed drinks named after their dogs!

Now, I work a lot of weddings. I mean, a lot. I work with a lot of couples. And some of those couples just really leave a lasting impression on me. Emily and Michael are one of those couples. Their love was so LOUD. Like, you could FEEL it being around them. And their family and friends just absolutely surrounded them with it, too. I couldn’t wipe the big goofy smile off my face all day! I’m so grateful for my job for bringing me to people like these two. Okay, I can be sappy and mushy all day long, but let’s get to the important part. THE PHOTOS! Check out the highlights from their big day!
