Jenna & Collin’s wedding day was dipped in breezy pastels, with soft blues and blush pinks. Their palette captured the charm of the coast—light, romantic, and effortlessly elegant with a touch of whimsy.

Jenna & Colin’s wedding design blended coastal charm with a romantic modern flair—think lush, airy florals, flickering candlelight, and an inviting warmth that set the tone for an unforgettable evening. Guests enjoyed a cocktail hour on the veranda before gathering in a softly lit reception space that felt both intimate and enchanting.

Jenna wore a breathtaking floral lace appliqué gown, paired with a matching veil lovingly hand-embellished by her mother—a detail that made her bridal look all the more meaningful. The delicate craftsmanship and personal touch added a timeless, heirloom quality to her ensemble that still felt chic.

The bridesmaids wore structured, strapless gowns that added a modern edge to the romantic coastal palette. Their sleek silhouettes beautifully complemented the breezy setting.

Jenna & Colin treated guests to a menu highlighting Southern traditions, featuring elevated comfort dishes that paid homage to their roots. The bar offered a wide array of signature cocktails—from classic favorites to creative sips—ensuring every guest found a drink to toast the night.

The décor struck a perfect balance between vibrant and timeless, with colorful florals adding a playful pop against neutral linens. Soft candlelight danced across the tables, creating a warm, inviting glow that carried through the evening into dancing.

The couple shared their first slice of a simple vanilla cake with buttercream icing, garnished perfectly with a few fresh blooms.

As a heartfelt surprise, a live painter captured Jenna & Collin’s first dance in a stunning oil painting, preserving the moment in timeless brushstrokes. The couple was overwhelmed with happiness seeing this moment memorialized in such a fun, artistic way.

Collin is a big golfer, so of course, there had to be golf ball favors at the bar for the boys. Each ball featured a print of their wedding crest, so the boys won’t lose their ball on the course!

Jenna, a former ECU cheerleader, brought the energy and spirit to the dance floor with a surprise performance alongside her college cheer teammates. The unexpected dance break lit up the reception and had guests cheering as loudly as on game day.
