A back-to-back rainy day wedding?! Yup. Also just as epic of a couple that went out and did the darn thing regardless of the rain.

Arriving at Emily and Tyler's wedding was nerve-racking as I continuously got alerts on my phone with severe weather, and the radar looked INSANE. I had hopes though maybe I'd get lightning in some of their photos but the storm didn't hit until well after I left. Only a steady rain came and it didn't stop these two adorable lovebirds from having their gorgeous outdoor wedding at Emily's childhood home.

Their adorable son shown during the ceremony! He's so sweet and made their first kiss unforgettable.

I also was fortunate enough to meet and talk to their awesome friends and family. The bartenders were the best ever (I wish I could hang out with them at every wedding) and Emily's dad's billiards room is everyone's dream bar. All the light up signs, vintage signs and vibes are absolute perfection.

The food was also out of this world! One of my favorite foods is a Carolina style pulled pork sandwich, and they did not disappoint!!

I'm so grateful to have captured this beautiful couple's perfect, intimate and incredibly fun wedding! I'm so excited for them, their adorable little family and to have met such extraordinary people!

Congratulations, Emily and Tyler!

XOXO,
