Wait for it.. this story on our wedding blog today is the sweetest! Yes, it’s a SURPRISE wedding! If you’re wondering how that could be, just read more about it below, but let us tell you, it turned out positively perfect! What a special way to truly shower the bride & groom in love by having everything prepared for them! The gorgeous venue is all that would do for such a special moment. We fell in love with it’s classic Southern style that went beautifully with the soft blue and ivory decor. Scroll through the wedding day and take in all the magic – and all the sweet moments between this giddy bride & groom and their adorable son!

Love is a unique journey and Rachel and Bernie’s story is no different which is why they are so deserving of this moment. These two fated hearts met while Rachel was attending officer training school for the Air Force in Alabama. Bernie was a tall, dark, and handsome military man and through some convincing of her sister in law, Rachel decided to give this guy a shot. Taking the chance worked out because less than a year later they were blessed with a son on the way and decided to tie the knot at their local church. Due to the rushed nuptials their family was unable to be present and Rachel didn’t get to experience the magic of such a wonderful occasion. Rachel’s sister in law wanted to give her the wedding day of her dreams as a surprise and luckily this bride loves surprises!

The surprise wedding took place on July 24th at the historic Mims House in Holly Springs, NC, with family and friends present! A big shoutout to all the incredible vendors who made this perfect day possible!
