victoria + andrew’s story

“Andrew and I first crossed paths in October 2017 while attending Auburn University,” says Victoria. The two were introduced by a mutual friend and the connection was immediate.

“Andrew proposed to me during a family vacation in Maui,” shares Victoria. “He had planned to propose earlier in the day, but a minor surfing mishap delayed his plans. Instead, he waited until dinner, which made the moment even more special as it was also my birthday.”

“There were so many meaningful aspects that made our wedding special,” Victoria says. “Andrew and I exchanged vows in the same church where both of our parents and many other family members had been married. Our wedding party was a wonderful mix of family, sorority sisters, college friends, and childhood friends. I also cherished incorporating sentimental elements, like having my mom’s blusher sewn into my veil and pieces of my grandmother’s veil added for a touch of legacy.”

“One of the most cherished moments was fulfilling a dream my mom had shared for years—riding to the church in a Rolls Royce with my father. After the wedding Andrew and I rode to the reception in the Rolls Royce which was very fitting since he is a car connoisseur.”
