Sam and Clara's Wedding in Alpharetta, Georgia

The story of our wedding

Our wedding story started with a sunrise proposal on the beach in October 2016. We were away celebrating our dating anniversary and had been wanting a picture of just the two of us at sunrise and obviously, not many people are on the beach at sunrise in October. Sam figured out how to use the self-timer on his phone's camera and set it up in the sand and ended up taking pictures that turned into the photo story of our engagement.

Our wedding was the perfect display of our personalities. A mix of amazing vendors that saw our vision all the way through and integrating some friends and family to make our day unique to us. We had my mom make our cutting cake, one close friend managed all of the music necessities, and another close friend officiated our wedding.

Our favorite moments of the day had to include our first dance, first look, taking pictures just us at sunset before the reception, all of the great stories that came from the speeches, and seeing all of the friends and family that we don't get to see all that often.
