Stephanie and Mike first met at William and Mary while both working for the school’s newspaper…he was a sports editor and she was a copy editor…and after a few weeks of “accidentally” running into each other in the newspaper office, they went on their first official date! When they graduated, they got jobs in separate cities and spent a year and a half driving back and forth to visit each other until they finally got to live in the same place! Mike proposed back at William and Mary at the building where they first met…

Stephanie planned the most beautiful day with a Midsummer Night’s Dream feel with lots of candles and soft colors…it was the most gorgeous day full of classic details and so much joy! I am so grateful I got to celebrate with these two! 

Mike and Stephanie are one of the most thoughtful couples and I am so happy for them to start this new chapter together! I hope you enjoy a few of my favorites from their day…
