Beautiful White Church Wedding with Dusty Blue Pops Drake & Abbie | Gaffney & Spartanburg, SC

Tears of joy. So many tears of pure joy on Drake & Abbie’s wedding day.

In some ways, it was surprising to us to see all the tears. Why? Well, as we have gotten to know Drake & Abbie, we have never seen them not smiling or laughing. They are just joyful people! Drake has a lovable joking way about him that makes you feel like you are friends with him instantly. And Abbie has a smile that lights up the room and a graceful kindness which puts people at ease while making them feel close to her simultaneously. We were expecting a lot of fun but not a lot of tears! And we actually got both!

In other ways, it was not surprising at all. For all the same reasons that they are such an instantly-loved couple, they are a couple that invokes emotion from others in their lives. We even found ourselves crying a few times throughout the day! We also got the opportunity to meet Abbie’s parents at her bridal session, and we knew then that Abbie came from an incredibly loving home. So to see her parents in joyful tears after Abbie put on her wedding dress and to see multiple friends and family wiping away a few stray tears throughout the day – well, let’s just say we get it.

We fell in love with Drake & Abbie right from the beginning. And so, it seems, does everyone they know. What an anthem for who they are as people. Well-loved by all.

Drake & Abbie, your day was as fantastic as your personalities. We love you and we can see why everyone loves you. We know you’re on your honeymoon, but enjoy this little reminder of the best day of your lives!
