FEATURED POST: Kye & Liana at the Bradford

I met Kye and Liana officially on their adventure engagement session in Wilmington and I just fell in love with them as people. Fans of creativity, fun and each other, we had a great time spending an afternoon coming up with ideas to tell their love story together. I could not wait for their amazing day at one of the best wedding venues in the Raleigh/Durham area, The Bradford.

When the day came, it did not disappoint. This gorgeous modern wedding at European style villa, “the Bradford” was dripping in sophistication and I loved their vision paired with C&D Events to help bring it to life.  With a soft neutral and blush color palette, an appearance from their sweet pup and an emotional ceremony, it was a joy. I loved the candlelit reception, which is such a dreamy effect for the guests and for the final images.
