Elopement Style Micro Wedding Photos at Piedmont Park
It was an absolute honor to capture these Piedmont Park wedding photos for this gorgeous couple! This elopement ceremony was a short and sweet micro wedding, and the couple were surrounded by their loved ones in an intimate circle under the gazebo at Piedmont Park. Below are the highlights from the day as well as a few words from this fun loving couple –
How did the two of you meet?
Bride: We met for our first date at Hand in Hand in Virginia Highlands. It wasn’t love at first sight…I was too preoccupied with work. I ended being laid off the following Monday! But, I texted him a few nights later and we had a second date that was amazing and we’ve been together ever since!
Groom: Hand in Hand in Virginia Highlands. She looked beautiful as always, but was very preoccupied. I’d kind of written it off thinking that was the end of it. She reached out to me a few days later and we went on another date. She was more relaxed and I even got to witness her extreme fear of cockroaches firsthand.
How/ when did you start dating? What attracted you most to each other?
Bride: I was attracted to him because he sooo cute! But, seriously, he’s a quiet guy but once he opens up (like on our second date) he’s the funniest guy I’ve ever met!
Groom: Her hair, she loves animals, shared absurd sense of humor.
Tell me about your relationship. What made this person different from anyone else you’d ever encountered?
Bride: He’s different because he’s the only guys who has been there for me through the hardest of times. My mom passed away almost 3 years ago now and he was there no questions asked. I wouldn’t have gotten through that without him!
Groom: [She] is different because at the end of the day, I just enjoy being around her.
When did you know this person was the one?
Bride: It was a slow realization. Just one day I knew it was right.
Groom: I’m only saying this because [she] said it was a slow realization. I knew immediately.
How did the engagement happen?
Bride: He proposed in our new home! We bought our home in May of 2015 and he proposed in June of 2015. I was making him hang curtains all over the house. And then one moment he was down on his knee. I was completely surprised! It was perfectly us.
Last Questions! What’s the one thing about each other you couldn’t live without?
Bride: He’s just so thoughtful and sweet. Always puts me first and I just couldn’t imagine not having him with me.
Groom: I couldn’t narrow it down to one thing.
