Hotel Domestique Wedding | Chelsea & Drew

Chelsea & Drew were married at Hotel Domestique and their wedding day was near perfect. From beautiful Carolina blue skies, to the most beautiful blooms, to the set list the band played all evening.. it was an amazing day.

The day began with both Chelsea & Drew getting ready with a few friends and family members there at the hotel. Chelsea & Drew chose to have a first look so that they could spend as much time as they could after the ceremony with their guests.

All the moments from first look, to intimate off to the side hand holds, to their vows to one another, to their toasts to those there to celebrate them, to everyone dining and dancing under the stars was incredibly sweet and thoughtful. Everything about their day was well thought through and done with intention and it was an honor to be there to document the day for Chelsea & Drew.

Chelsea & Drew, thank you so much for wanting me to document your wedding day.  Loved my time with you two, your families and friends So much!!

A huge shout-out to all the vendors that made Chelsea & Drew’s wedding day a reality!

One of the most common questions I get—right after “What’s your favorite wedding venue?”—is “How do you balance being a mom and running a photography business?” The truth? Some days, it’s a well-oiled machine. Other days, it’s organized chaos. But it’s always full of love, creativity, and a whole lot of carline coffee.  Being a […]

Meredith & Marc had an amazing weekend in October in Highlands, NC. They were surrounded by their family and friends from start to finish and it was an amazing weekend to document. Their Friday included a bridal brunch, golf and rehearsal at The Farm at Old Edwards before everyone headed downtown Highlands for the rehearsal […]
