They say southern girls are some of the sweetest and beautiful women in the world – but I’d dare say feisty, as well! These are some of the first words that come to mind when you meet the stunning and statuesque Nicole, who is the perfect compliment to her charming (now) husband, Adam! Looking at the two, it’s easy to see how they were made for one another.

Aside from simply being a gorgeous couple – tall, and athletic, these two DEFINITELY know how to have fun! They don’t take themselves too seriously, and are completely, unabashedly in love with one another. It gave me the chills to witness how free they are with their affection for one another, but not in a sugary-sweet, over-the-top way. It is pure romance, and I couldn’t be more thrilled for them to have taken this next step into forever with one another, as husband and wife!

Nicole and Adam were married at the Springdale House in Columbia, South Carolina – a magnificently restored Greek revival manor with vintage appointments and an incredible staff. Nicole chose to style her wedding in teals and whites, and tied in some very personal accents throughout the day. A cake decorated with “sand” and chocolate “shells,” sea shells scattered along tables, and various other beach-themed touches reflected her love for the coast. Nicole also made sure to display some of hers and Adam’s childhood photographs and interests, reflecting two lives coming together. I love it when the bride and groom are so intentional in allowing the wedding day to show who they truly are – it makes the day extra magical!!

To the couple: Nicole and Adam, I am so blessed to know you and to have, in a sense, journeyed with you from an engaged couple to now a husband and wife!! Congratulations, and all my love!!
