This was a stunning day from start to finish to say the least! Sonia + James are such a sweet couple and it was evident all day as their friends and family came together to celebrate.
We first got to know Sonia + James at their engagement session at Black Balsam. They were so much fun and had some amazing outfits, we knew the wedding was definitely going to be one for the books!
On their wedding day, each of them got ready in a room full of loved ones, with a blessing upon each of them before their first look at the Inn. The weather was so beautiful and we got to spend some great time shooting at the Biltmore Estate before heading to the church.
Their ceremony was held at Grace Episcopal Church in North Asheville. The service was a Malankara (Indian) Syrian Orthodox Church service and was beautiful! It is divided into two parts- the Blessing of the Rings and the Blessing of the Crowns. Beautiful singing and incense filled the church while Sonia was draped with her bridal saree and her nephews placed flowers over their shoulders. It was such an honor to witness!
When we arrived back at Biltmore, the sun was just staring to set as Sonia + James were introduced as husband and wife and shared their first dance and cake cutting. After an outfit change, the party really started! The DJ had everyone out on the dance floor and the energy was amazing!
Carolina Love Events designed and executed a perfect day and we had a great time with Timm Young Films capturing all the best moments. Thank you again Sonia + James for including us, we had such an amazing day celebrating with you!
