Alison + Thomas - Coastal Garden Wedding in Wilmington, North Carolina

Alison + Thomas got married in a beautiful outdoor garden ceremony on the coast I am so lucky they chose my as their Wedding Photographer in Wilmington, North Carolina. As the sun was setting, the two said their vows to each other surrounded by their friends and family. Alison was giddy the entire time while getting ready, so excited to finally see her groom. "You know how some say you get second thoughts before a wedding? I didn't. I never been so sure of anything in my life", she told her bridesmaids, with this huge smile of hers, that warms up any room. This is something I noticed right when I first met her for their Engagement Session (check it out here!) The two met in the gym, where they participate in olympic style weight lifting. 

"He might argue that our first "real" date was a dinner at Roys Riverboat Landing on the water front downtown but I actually consider our first date long before that, back when we were just friends and he invited me to the shooting range where he taught me how to shoot his gun followed by an amazing dinner at our favorite restaurant Mission BBQ and a movie back at my place. It might not have been the most romantic "first" date but it reminds me how much I love just being with him and how he will always be my BEST friend."

The two danced the night away with their guests and ended it with a sparkler exit - and fireworks! I wish you two of you all the best for your future - Congratulations!
