Makayla + Will: An Indoor, Summer Wedding Ceremony & Reception

Happy Anniversary, Makayla + Will!

Imagine graduating from college during the 2020 pandemic while planning a wedding and preparing a for a cross-country move just days after you say your vows. WOAH! This seemed to be the reality for so many couples last year, but Makayla + Will weren’t going to let any of those things stop their perfect wedding day at Oakland Farm!

This couple opted for an indoor ceremony – if you’re a North Carolina native, you know how our summers can feel! Guests exited the Barn for an outdoor cocktail hour under our shaded Pavilion while an amazing vendor team worked together to flip the venue and prepare for their reception. Some of our favorite details of their dreamy wedding day were:

Beautiful Minted wedding invitations (and the most stunning flatlay shots by Heather Gunter Photography)
Candlelit aisle Makayla walked down to meet her groom at the altar
Stunning florals on the mantle by Teacup Floral
Local truffles and banana pudding for dessert (and cake, of course)
Ribbon wand exit!
Custom stickers for guest favors
