Watching Aly + Cody finally get to tie the knot on July 18th was simply the best! With all of the uncertainties of the pandemic, it’s made for one emotional wedding planning process, but they did it and now finally get to share each others last names after celebrating a beautiful day with their family and friends!!

These high school sweethearts have been such a blessing to work with from day one! Aly and I chatted over FaceTime over two years ago, so the day finally being here felt so surreal! All our conversations, their engagement session and now the wedding day, made it pretty easy to fall in love with them and super hard to say goodbye at the end of the night!

I’m so excited for these friends! A huge congrats to the newlyweds, Mr. + Mrs. McCollum!!

Hope you enjoy some of my favorites from their big day!

Thanks so much to the amazing group of vendors who made this day possible!
