Graham, NC Wedding at The Graham Mill

Katie & Levi - One of the smartest couples I've ever had the privilege of working with. Katie is going to be a doctor and Levi is an Engineer - WHAT! and for all you STATE fans, yes they both graduated from NC State! Katie is in med school so she decided it was best to get a little more hands on help during planning. They decided on a Limited Planning package, so I was more involved in design, layout, and florals than a majority of my couples. It was so much fun to compare their inspo photos to the real thing and it turned out absolutely amazing!

The Details

Katie & Levi utilized the Bri By Design rental catalog to its fullest! Between linens, light walls, settees, candles, - you name it they used it - which meant we had a lot of fun getting everything together and setting up for the day! With a flip between the ceremony and reception, we were a busy crew on wedding day, prepping everything before for a quick transition. We repurposed things from one section of the day to the next seamlessly and it came together amazing!

The Ceremony

Katie & Levi were both a little nervous prior to the ceremony but they didn't show it! They were so ready to get to marry each other and start their lives as Mr & Mrs. TG Floristy really made all our dreams come true with this Garage installation! And their aisle endcaps - GORGEOUS! Between these things, the beauty that is The Graham Mill, and the absolute sweetest vows, so many happy tears honestly!

The Reception

After the ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktail hour in the courtyard while we made a quick room flip. A room flip is a lot of work for the vendor team and it really creates a different route for the day - but man its so fun to see a room transfer in no time at all! We introduced the newlyweds and jumped right into the first dance, sung live by the couple's close friends! The Dryes sing all over the triangle an all the way down to Nashville - it really was like sitting front row at a concert - especially when they sang a beautiful song written just for Katie & Levi! We jumped right into dinner next, which means I got to enjoy a fresh latte from the coffee cart - YES! they had custom lattes at their wedding reception and let me tell you Arrowhead Coffee are the coolest people and make some dang good coffee!

The Newlyweds

As mentioned, these two have the cutest love and they are the sweetest people! They ogled over each other all night while gabbing with friends, took some sunset photos, celebrated on the dance floor, hung out by the photo wall with some friends and family, and took their grand exit in the courtyard with a sparkler exit. The whole evening was perfect for them and I am so honored I got to help them plan this amazing day!
