Wedding Date on May 5, 2023

It started with a nervous middle school boy, hiding a Valentine’s carnation from his crush, behind a neighbor’s tree. The new Valentines continued their childhood romance into high school, through college and beyond, arriving at this perfect day in Charleston. Carson and Will’s love story is one of the most movie-ready stories we’ve had the privilege of telling. Though they met all the way back in 5th grade, sometimes it’s like everyone knows it’s meant to be. Growing up together in the same direction is never easy, and they were presented with many challenges over the years. As Carson’s mom said, it’s rare for really young couples to make it, but sometimes everyone just knows it’s the real thing, and that was the case with Carson and Will. Even their parents knew they were soulmates, and this amazing journey reached a beautiful and well-earned new peak as they stopped to celebrate such an amazing partnership. We were so glad to be there to see this beautiful story continuing to develop, with the beautiful decor, the gorgeous flowers, a perfect sunset and their family and friends surrounding them, and a party that went all night. Cheers to many more years to come for this beautiful couple!
