We are so excited to share with you Gabi & Ryan’s gorgeous wedding at The Barn of Chapel Hill! Gabi found us when she had originally booked a different venue in Highlands for her wedding. Ryan was just starting his first season with the Dallas Cowboys, and because football is so unpredictable, Gabi really wanted to make sure she was being cost conscious about the wedding. For this reason, they decided to move the wedding to The Barn in Chapel Hill. Chapel Hill is where Gabi and Ryan met when they were in college at UNC – Ryan played football for Chapel Hill, and Gabi was a cheerleader – such an American college love story!
The venue was just stunning! This was our first wedding at The Barn of Chapel Hill, and we loved the simple lines of the elegant barn. The clean white spaces are very classic, and Gabi’s choice of green and white floral was the perfect compliment.
The bridesmaids dresses provided the perfect pop of color.
Wild Flora Farm rocked the floral for this wedding. Particularly this arbor. Stunning.
These two were so lovely together. We love the quiet emotion in this image.
As Gabi was making wedding plans, she wanted to be sure that Ryan and his friends were not made a spectacle of because they are pro football players. They couldn’t have picked a better planner – we know NOTHING about professional football, so for us, it was a day of hanging out with a bunch of really polite tall gentleman. There was a funny moment before the wedding party was being announced in, and we said “the DJ is going to say your name, everyone is going to clap for you, and then you come out and go down the stairs to your place” . A groomsman asked “wait can you say that again – what do we do when they say our name?”
We told him – it’s pretty much what you do every Monday night just no football 😉
The day ended like it began. Classic. Lovely. It was a wonderful wedding at The Barn of Chapel Hill!
Congratulations to Gabi & Ryan! It was such a lovely day, and we are so excited for you both. As always, thanks to the amazing team of folks who made this day so fantastic! We couldn’t have done it without you!
