Sally and Emily wanted a wedding that perfectly reflected their vibrant personalities—a blend of heartfelt tradition, joyful celebration, and meaningful details that made their day uniquely them. They chose to tie the knot at a beautiful outdoor/indoor venue in their hometown of Charlotte, NC, surrounded by a large audience of family and friends. As a same-sex couple, it was important to them that their love was celebrated fully and authentically, with a ceremony that felt both personal and true to their values.

Their wedding combined a traditional, Christian non-denominational ceremony with personal touches that highlighted their story. Sally and Emily wrote their own vows, bringing laughter and tears to their guests, and even included their beloved pets in the festivities—a perfect nod to their family life together. Navigating family dynamics was a key consideration, as both brides wanted to ensure that their ceremony felt inclusive and welcoming for everyone present. Together, we crafted a service that honored their faith, their journey, and the people who helped shape their love story.

Officiating their wedding wasn’t just a privilege—it was a party! Their ceremony set the perfect tone for a day filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
