Weddings

This day was just the sweetest! Morgan and Mike contacted me back in 2017 about their wedding, and wanted to secure their day early. I LOVED THAT! June 22nd ended up being an extremely popular inquiry day, and I am so glad Morgan became a RWP Bride before anyone else had the date. I remember having the best time with the two of them doing their Engagement Session on a family friend’s local beach. We couldn’t wait for their big day to arrive!

From the start of the day you could tell what was special to Morgan. As I gathered her details, and began styling I loved how she included several items that belonged to her Nannie. Her Nannie means the world to her, and is not mobile. She couldn’t attend the wedding, but Morgan did such an amazing job including her through out the day. Her Grandfather who she calls “ Pop” she surprised with a “ First Look “ of her in her dress, and then pinned a special boutonniere on him. The boutonniere had a little pendent that belonged to her nannie. This moment was so special of the two of them together. Pop took out some photos he brought, and the two smiled and cried together. Pop, before the Ceremony began took the photographs and placed them on the chair that was decorated as reserved for Nannie.

Once the Ceremony concluded everyone headed to The Smithfield Center for the reception. The weather was beautiful for all their family formals and bridal party photos to be taken right on the back deck. Morgan and Mike walked down to the garden area for some Bride and Groom portraits. The flowers were blooming, and the scenery was just gorgeous for their photos. On my wedding questionnaire I had them each answer a question for me. I asked “ What do they love the most about one another? “ Each of them without knowing what the other said answered almost identical.

Morgan said:

“ My whole world is complete with him in it. He encourages me to be me and loves me for me. He’s always there to laugh with me and wipe my tears away. I truly am the luckiest girl to be in love with my best friend.

Mike said:

What I love the most about Morgan is that she completes me and brings out the best of me. She will always put everything in front of herself and she is the strongest person I know. No matter what the circumstance is she will over come it. She is the light to my world that will never go out.

Cue all the tears for sure as I reminded them of what they said to each other. Morgan is absolutely stunningggg, and Mike truly adores her!

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. House!!!!
