Catherine & Glen, North Carolina Museum of Art

“Catherine has always marched to the beat of her own drum and she was just looking for someone who danced to the very same beat and that’s when Glen came along.” These words were spoken by Catherine’s sister, Sarah, and I think that is such a sweet way to describe someone finding the love of their life. Catherine and Glen are so in sync with each other, it is truly beautiful to see. Their couples footage at the park of the North Carolina Museum of Art is a work of art in itself. The park sculptures against the barren December landscape, provide the most stunning backdrop for Catherine and Glen to soak up their first moments as husband and wife. Check out this film to see these two people, who were clearly made for each other, say “I DO”!

Draia & Eder: The Sutherland

If you are looking for a time-stopping romance, look no further. Draia and Eder have a fairy-tale worthy love. They met at work and, apparently, it took a moment for Draia to realize that her prince charming was a few desks down, waiting to give her the world. As soon as Eder was able to sweep Draia off of her feet, it was clear to their friends and family that they are a perfect match. As if exchanging their hand-written vows in the Sutherland gardens wasn’t gorgeous enough, they stood under a beautiful arbor that Eder built himself while vowing forever. Press play to see D+E start their happily-ever-after!

Taylor & Tres: Washington Duke Inn

“Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain.” This statement spoken by the father of the bride is the only way to describe Taylor and Tres’s perfect wedding day. When Hurricane Matthew decided to send down buckets of rain and hair twirling wind, Taylor and Tres embraced the unplanned conditions and literally ‘danced in the rain’. Having met at Duke University, the Duke Chapel and the Washington Duke Inn served as the perfect backdrops for their nuptials, football tailgate, and rockin’ reception. While many elements of their day could be categorized under “magical”, the highlight of the night was decidedly, the father of the bride’s toast. Mr. Starks told the most beautiful story about a question that Taylor had asked him when she was little. The answer to that question will make your heart swell and bring you to tears!

Alison & Robert: The Bradford

Nothing is sweeter than two people pledging their commitment to one another under the sun, surrounded by butterflies, in the company of their family & closest friends. Except, when that sweet couple has a little baby boy and pledging their commitment to each other also means celebrating the future of a loving family–I think that takes the cake! Alison and Robert’s wedding at The Bradford is busting at the seams with sweet love that is shown through: hand-written cards, Robert’s face as Alison comes down the isle, and their son (Dawson) joining them during their first dance.

Cassie & Brooks: Jolo Winery and Vineyard

Cassie and Brooks’s beautiful vineyard wedding was a perfect snapshot of their fairy-tale relationship. As told in Mr. Mayberry’s toast, the high-school sweethearts went from tossing their shoes over a telephone wire during their junior year, to saying “I do” in front of their family and friends. The sun cast a beautiful golden glow as their guests enjoyed the Jolo Winery and Vineyard’s wine and showed off their silliest dance moves. Between the vineyard vines, Cassie and Brooks were loved, supported and celebrated as they stepped into the next chapter of their lives.

Emma & Matt: Duke Chapel

“Here is my little advice on what a successful marriage takes… and it takes that you fall in love very many times with the same person.”

Emma and Matt’s day was a range of emotions – from tear-jerking handwritten letters to laughter-inducing toasts, we dare you not to feel some of the same joy and excitement Emma & Matt felt on their wedding day. Not only are these two clearly in love with each other, it is also obvious they have become each others best friend. We loved Emma’s sassy humor and Matt’s thoughtfulness and love for football!

Gina & Luke: Brier Creek Country Club

Two years of long distance, a big move to New York, lots of laughter and a secret handshake all played a part in leading to Gina and Luke’s joy-filled day. When we first spoke to Gina and Luke, it became quickly evident that they are each other’s best friends and absolutely love to have fun! They are funny, trustworthy, hardworking and so in love. My favorite moment from the day was during Gina and Luke’s introduction at Brier Creek Country Club… the entire room cheered as they danced giddily across the room with grins so big it seemed they could have burst with joy.

Katelyn & Chris: The Arbors

These two college sweethearts decided to tie the knot outside at The Arbors in Cleveland, NC. In typical North Carolina fashion, that June summer day was a scorcher, but the pretty flowers and lush green leaves made for an unbeatable backdrop. Under a pink sunset, Katelyn and Chris’s guests played cornhole and wrote well wishes on the wooden blocks of life-sized Jenga. As the moon rose and the stars twinkled, Chris surprised Katelyn with a fire-pit for s’mores and everyone danced the night away to celebrate a sweet couple.
