Some wedding days feel like stepping right into a fairytale, and Allison and Frazier’s celebration at The Grande Victorian was exactly that- a fairytale wedding. These two first met while volunteering at their church’s children’s ministry, and their relationship blossomed through sweet gestures, handwritten notes, and even braving rainy football games together. Frazier’s proposal was straight out of a dream. There were candles, thousands of rose petals, Allison’s favorite Disney song, and a twinkle-lit sign asking her to be his forever, pretty much the exact proposal every girl dreams of. With that much romance, you just know their wedding day was going to be something unforgettable.
Their inspiration for the big day was a mix of church tradition and elegant fairytale garden vibes. Bright, colorful florals and Allison’s gorgeous ball gown set the scene, while the summer sunshine made The Grande Victorian glow. The whole day felt like a storybook brought to life, but with plenty of laughter and joy mixed in to make it completely their own.
The ceremony at their church wasn’t the only tear jerking moment. They also exchanged letters in the morning, and Allison got to have an emotional first look with her dad and her fun brothers. After saying “I do,” everyone gathered at The Grande Victorian for a reception full of energy and celebration. From their bubble send-off to fun traditions like the shoe game, every detail kept guests smiling and dancing late into the evening.
One of the sweetest parts of the day was seeing how intentional Allison and Frazier were about making memories with family and friends. They surrounded themselves with a bridal party of seven bridesmaids and seven groomsmen, celebrated with their closest loved ones, and even made space for traditions like parent dances and special tributes to grandparents.
By the time the night ended, it was clear that Allison had her princess moment, Frazier had his emotional aisle reveal, and together they had built the perfect start to their forever. Their wedding at The Grande Victorian was the beginning of a lifetime of love and faith lived side by side.
Allison and Frazier, thank you so much for trusting me to capture your day. Every detail, from the rose petals to the bright pops of summer color, was absolutely magical, and it was such an honor to be there as your story unfolded. Wishing you both a lifetime of sticky-note love notes, laughter, and endless fairytale moments!
