Samantha and Keegan love road trips- they drove all the way from Indiana to meet me in Asheville for their engagement photos and it was an absolute blast. We talked a lot about ghost stories and hauntings and true crime and our favorite movies. We had beautiful soft light and the Blue Ridge Mountains were showing off their peak colors in late October. Their love is so genuine and sweet and I can’t wait to photograph their intimate wedding in April!
Mary & Luke | Magnolia Manor Plantation Bed & Breakfast Wedding | NC Wedding Photographer
This wedding is so so special and beautiful. Mary attended a wedding at this venue when she was a young girl, and dreamt of one day getting married there. Fast forward to her adult life and SHE GETS MARRIED THERE. The sweetest little bit of fate. She and Luke are absolutely crazy for each other. Their day was in the late Fall, but temperatures barely got above 40º. Despite that, there were zero complaints, because it was just an excuse for them to cuddle more. They exude enough warmth and love to keep us all cozy <3
A few of my favorite things:
Mary's pinky promise vows
Luke dancing back down the aisle with Mary to Hall & Oates
The venue has a chicken coop and they let us meet and pet one of the chickens
EVERYone getting down on the dance floor (and some of them singing!)
Do you see that cake setup??
