I am so stoked to share Michaela and Matt’s Summer Wedding at Amelia Grove on the blog today. Michaela and I bonded over our love for TSwift. If you’ve ever scrolled through my website you’ll see that there are song lyrics in the header of each page including some from the queen herself. When Michaela reached out to inquire about their wedding that was the first thing she mentioned. I even made a fun playlist for Michaela and Matt’s engagement session full of the most romantic TSwift songs. Mainly so we could sing along together of course haha. Obviously one of my favorite moments from their wedding day was getting to jam out to ‘I Knew You Were Trouble’ with Michaela and Tamara from Down to I Do.
I just love how Michaela and Matt met. Their story is so cute that of course, Matt asked for a photo on the wedding day to honor their story. Here is how Michaela describes the night they met: “That night, probably trying to show off, he decided to jump into the tree which got us all promptly kicked out of the bar- classic! It was then that I knew that he was the one, I mean how could he NOT be? We traded numbers that night but I couldn’t remember his name. So of course, I put him in as “Tree Jumper”. Since then he has always been my tree jumper in my contact list. Flash forward… In July of 2020, I decided to relocate and move to Beaufort for a change. I got a job in Carteret County Schools as a 5th-grade teacher and moved down to Beaufort. We found a place together- just in time! And since then we have been laughing, sailing, swimming. kayaking, eating, singing, napping, biking, drinking, living, and loving, ever since.”
