Farrah and Tyler got married on their 9 year anniversary. How amazing and adorable is that? When Farrah and I first talked about her wedding, she told me that she wanted it to be about the love she and Tyler shared.  She wanted it to be their love story. She is a huge Nicholas Sparks fan, and after getting engaged in North Carolina (where many of his novels are set) she knew that having a story book romance wedding was it.

A romantic day it was, and in true Nicolas Sparks fashion – many tears were shed – but good ones – and much love was shared.

Farrah and Tyler found a beautiful historic home, Highland Manor, for their venue. Filled with history, it added to the romance of the day. Farrah put on her beautiful Hayley Paige gown in the bridal suite of the manor. Her sister, Shauna helped her put on the final details, such as her Sara Gabriel veil and custom earrings.

Farrah and Tyler opted not to do a first look, but they did have a first touch around one of the door ways. It was a really sweet moment.

The ladies carried simple and elegant rose bouquets as they walked towards the ceremony site under the oak tree. As Farrah and her dad made their way, Tyler was fighting back the tears. The ceremony began, reminding all of us what it means to make a commitment like this. They shared personalized vows, exchanged rings, and soon became husband and wife.

I will never forget walking with them after their ceremony! Seeing the joy on their faces when they were able to hug each other. Gahhh – these two are adorable!

The rest of the evening didn’t disappoint – from a sweet first dance to Michael Buble, to a messy cake cutting, it was a night to remember. Farrah and Tyler’s love shone throughout the event and well past their bubble exit.

Tyler and Farrah, thank you so much for letting Thomas and I play such a special part in your wedding day. We had an amazing time, and you two are so sweet. What you have is something special. I can’t wait to watch your love grow for decades to come. Hugs!

A final thank you to the fabulous vendors that helped put this together!
