April and Michael waited a long time for their big day, and it was every bit as special as they could have dreamed.
As high school sweethearts, these two have had 11 whole years to build their relationship, be true best friends, and establish who they are individually. We love how at home they are with each other and how absolutely elated they both were to get married. We know they are beginning this new adventure in the best place possible because of the things they appreciate most in each other — matters of the heart, the things that really matter:
“Michael is fiercely loyal. He is the most incredible friend that anyone can ask for and he loves unconditionally and without reservation. The way that he cares for others immediately attracted me as soon as I met him.”
“The things that I see in her that I love the most are her love for children, her compassion, and her incredible insight into the world around her. I’ve never met anyone in my life who understands people and loves as selflessly as she does. She has a way of looking at the world that makes you feel and appreciate life in a genuine and powerful way.”
Beyond their incredible love for each other, the thing that really stood out on their gorgeous day at the beautiful Lilac Farms was how important celebrating with their people was to them. Guests traveled from great distances to be by their side, and they were all about making that party fun for them. Incredible food from Bacon and Caviar (hiiiighly recommended, y’all!), Dos Perros on tap and endless bottles of Arrington Vineyards wine, Shipley’s donuts, and a full night of dancing under the stars. The night was amazing, and we’re thrilled to share some of our highlights with you.
