Tyler + Matthew = WEDDING DAY!

The Leaning Tree, Bailey NC  |  Tyler + Matthew  |  May 27th, 2018

I’m not sure if we’ve EVER seen a couple MORE EXCITED to get married than these two amazing people. Tyler and Matthew just RADIATE joyfulness and the love they have for each other is so apparent!!! Ever since their Engagement Session (where I fell and had to get over a dozen stitches, see the session here) we were SO PUMPED for their wedding day.

Matthew is incredibly sweet, gentlemanly, and so in love with Tyler… and Tyler brings so much laughter, silliness, and joy to their relationship. We couldn’t be MORE THRILLED for these two!!!

After forecasting all week for a rainy wedding day, we were blessed with not a single drop of rain, and even sunshine for their day!!! When we arrived, the girls were finishing hair and makeup, and just relaxing in really cute robes upstairs!

Tyler absolutely SPOILED US with the most amazing details to photograph!!!! Tyler provided us spools of soft ribbon, fluffy peonies from her florist Rebecca (you rock, Rebecca!) a velvet ring box, a beautiful perfume bottle, and of course her HUGE ROCK of an engagement ring was literally a dream to photograph.

Speaking of spoiling… they put Diet Dr Peppers in the venue fridge JUST FOR US!!!!

Our favorite parts of the morning was when Tyler’s Grandma put on her garters, (oh my gosh she is HILARIOUS for real) Tyler’s First Look with her dad (especially when he passed on an heirloom family brooch to Tyler), and when Matthew and Tyler both teared up when reading letters from each other.

The ceremony was beautiful. Matthew literally BEAMED with Tyler walked down the aisle, and he wasn’t the only one tearing up, HIS BROTHERS were also crying!!! OMG sweetest thing ever!!! They had a Christ-centered message, communion, and they worshipped together as Becca sang a solo.

The reception started with delicious food (Tyler AND her mom Paula made sure that Phillip and I ate, which was so sweet) and once DJ Intershade kicked off the party with everyone on the dance floor having a blast!!!

The beautiful day ended with send off through sparklers, and Tyler and Matthew went away in her grandfather’s vintage car, Hattie. It was a PERFECT way to end such a fun, joyful day!!!!

We hope you’ll love seeing all of our favorite photos below!
