The Fairs’ Beautiful Chelsea Sun Inn Wedding
Some love stories take the long way to the altar, and Emily and Bryden’s is one of them. The two first met in college, but life had other plans before they could officially begin their forever. Between Bryden’s deployment and his time at the police academy, their relationship grew strong through patience and dedication. Emily, a teacher with the warmest heart, stood by him through it all. Their journey made August 8th at the Chelsea Sun Inn all the more meaningful, the day they finally became Mr. and Mrs. Fair.
Despite the usual mid-August heat, their wedding day could not have been more perfect. Emily and Bryden got ready right at the venue, with the soft light inside the inn setting the stage for all the little moments leading up to their ceremony. Guests were shuttled to the top of a hill that overlooks the inn and the surrounding countryside, creating the most breathtaking backdrop for their vows. Their ceremony was heartfelt, personal, and full of the joy that comes with finally being able to say “I do.”
After cocktail hour, the party truly began. The bridal party made their big entrance, and Emily’s cousin (a familiar face to me from as one of my former brides!) stole the show with a hilarious and unforgettable appearance dressed as a pink shark. Laughter, cheers, and pure happiness filled the room as the celebration carried on.
The evening included heartfelt toasts from family and friends, a sweet cake cutting, and a packed dance floor thanks to an incredible DJ who kept the energy going all night. As the night wound down, a full moon lit up the venue, adding a little extra magic to an already unforgettable day. Emily and Bryden’s wedding was the perfect reflection of their story, beautiful, strong, and filled with joy.
I feel so grateful to have captured these memories for them, and I can’t wait to see where this next chapter of life takes them.
