A Sky Retreat Wedding is oh so special!
Allison and Jackson tied the knot this Spring at Sky Retreat in Purlear, NC just outside of Wilkesboro. Their day was gorgeous. Perfect weather and clear blue skies with just a hint of clouds that made the mountains look that much more magical! This view is absolutely breathtaking and the venue is amazing. It has a rustic yet modern and lush charm that is like no other I have seen. The colors Allison and Jackson chose complimented the blue ridge mountain skyline so well. Those baby blues and grays then the greenery and neutrals of the florals. So very well done! All the minor and major details were thought of.
Allison looked stunning in her bridal gown the guys handsome as well. Can’t leave them out. How about those cute flower girls with the ring bearer. He took his role seriously! As you will see we also got to witness a beautiful sunset. I was so glad that Allison and Jackson were game for taking a break from the reception for a few minutes to grab some shots of that. I think that is one of our favorite things to do. We love getting creative with light after all the big events have taken place. I think couples love having a few more intimate moments together too.
Allison and Jackson met in high school. He went to the “rival” high school and she always saw him playing baseball. The first time they actually talked to each other was over AIM and they have hardly missed a day since. They dated throughout high school. Jackson is a year older so he went away to college at UNC-Charlotte and they fell out of touch. Fate would have its way though as Allison attended Charlotte the next year and they became inseparable.
They love to travel to the mountains and they have always held a special place in the couples’ hearts. These mountains are where they got back together and where Jackson proposed. Jackson kept the secret for a couple months and got Allison’s parents well wishes but she was clueless. During a weekend in a cabin in Boone he asked her to be his wife. The rest is history.
As always thank you to my amazing 2nd photographer Melissa Biggers! I could not do my job well without this woman.
