I just have to say that I have the BEST couples!!  Every weekend, I have the honor of working with such wonderful couples and their amazing families… and I’m so thankful for every single person that this business has brought to me.  Cara + Aaron are no exception.  I absolutely ADORE these two and I’m so humbled to have been invited to document this incredible day for them.  From the moment I arrived on-site, everyone was so warm + welcoming… it felt like I was truly part of the family!  Cara, Aaron, their friends, and family were so gracious and easy to work with… I am so lucky to serve such incredible people on such a momentous day!

Cara + Aaron’s day started with a sweet First Look in Ansonborough.  Cara looked INCREDIBLE in her custom Matthew Christopher gown, which is officially one of my favorite dresses EVER!!  I mean, my jaw dropped when I saw it for the first time.  I feel like the pictures don’t even do it justice!!  We were joined by their amazing bridal party for group photos and, of course, we had to make sure to get some photos with their vintage bus!!  So cool!!

Before we knew it, Cara + Aaron were saying “I do!” in front of their closest family + friends in a beautiful garden ceremony.  Afterwards, Cara did a quick hair change while Aaron changed into his miniature pineapple boutonniere – which was one of my favorite details of the day!!  Cara + Aaron danced the night away with their family + friends while DJ Stephen Darby kept the dance floor packed, as usual.  At the end of the night, Cara + Aaron exited through a tunnel of sparklers… the perfect ending to an incredible day.  Here are some of my favorites from Cara + Aaron’s gorgeous Gadsden House wedding in Charleston, SC…
