Coastal North Carolina Wedding in the Heart of Swansboro

Coastal North Carolina Wedding | This wedding started out with dogs…..lots of amazing, beautiful yellow labs and golden retrievers! I knew from the start that this day was going to be special. This couple met during the pandemic and hit it off immediately, falling head over heals in love!

They introduced each other to their friends the only way you can during isolation, Zoom. And if you ask anyone that is closest to them, they all say the same thing: these two were made for each other!

They chose to use Haley’s parents waterfront property as their venue and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Haley decided to get ready in the privacy of her mothers bedroom with just her mom and maid or honor. Then, as you’ll see, she did a bridesmaids first look. Ok, so this is one of the best things and I wish more brides would do this. Just take a look at the images below and how special that moment was for the girls!

The guys were amazing to work with too! This was one of the most fun bridal parties to work with and man, was it a bridal party, twenty-five in total!! The ceremony was officiated by a sweet friend of theirs on the anniversary of the law passed that no longer prohibited inner racial marriage.

This entire group, friends, family and all those in attendance, were the best most down to earth and inclusive group. I know I had a blast photographing it with Sami Roy Photography and I am certain that everyone else had a blast too!
