Emelia + Wakefield

Wedding
May, 2023

Love was in the air at this Greensboro wedding, as North Carolina bore witness to a truly enchanting union between the sweetest couple to ever grace its streets! On a picturesque day filled with sunshine and joy, Emelia and Wakefield embarked on a journey of a lifetime as they exchanged heartfelt vows, surrounded by the love and support of their cherished family and friends. The most touching part of this wedding for me was seeing the heartfelt reactions by both Emelia and Wakefield as they saw each other during their first look before heading over to the church.

Another particularly touching aspect of this Greensboro wedding was the heartfelt involvement of the bride’s mother, a truly gifted and crafty individual. You’ll see her work in the hand-crochet flowers and leaves among the bridal details, and you’ll notice her impeccable sewing skill in Emelia’s dress and veil! The dress shimmered like a dream, a perfect reflection of the bride’s radiant beauty. And the veil, delicately handcrafted with love, was the crowning glory on top of this beautiful bride that could not stop smiling with joy the entire day!

After a touching Greensboro wedding ceremony at their church, the celebration moved to a venue that held a special place in the couple’s heart: the Boxcar Arcade. The very spot where they had shared their first date. Laughter and joy filled the air as family and friends gathered to celebrate the newlyweds’ love story in a place that held such sentimental value. With blinking lights and nostalgic arcade games in the next room, Emelia and Wakefield danced the night away, surrounded by the people who meant the most to them.

Emelia and Wakefield’s Greensboro wedding was not just a celebration of two individuals coming together; it was a celebration of love, family, and the beautiful connections that make life meaningful. Never have I felt such love and pure joy on a wedding day like I did from this one! From Emelia’s lovely family, who treated me like a friend, the tears of happiness, to the intricate handmade details, every moment was a reflection of a truly special, immense kind of love.
