S + T
Meet Sarah + Tyler! Two of the kindest, most beautiful, and easy-to-celebrate couples that we’ve had the honor of hosting in our space! Every detail from their wedding day felt so timeless + classic! We are always a fan of a black + white aesthetic. We’ll definitely be fan-girling over their wedding gallery for years to come!
Here’s their love story - “We met eight years ago in August 2014 through a mutual friend at a football game. A couple weeks later Tyler asked me to homecoming which led to our first date! I made sure to tell all of my friends I called dibs on the cute, older baseball boy ;) We stayed friends, talking on and off throughout high school when finally in August 2016 he asked me to be his girlfriend. I of course said yes, not knowing that would be the start of our forever. The past four and a half years we have done long distance dating, only seeing each other on weekends and summers. We have spent quite a few years wishing we could be together every day, so realizing we're about to be living a prayer we've prayed hundreds of times is the sweetest reminder of God's grace.”
We were blushing reading through what drew S + T to choosing The Emerson for their BEST DAY EVER! “The Emerson had all the qualities we were looking for and we felt it was the best representation of us as a couple. It was the first venue we toured and we were sold as soon as the tour ended. The simplistic, modern, and timeless feel of the whole venue made us fall in love with it. The Emerson speaks for itself in every way and we can't wait for our guests to fall in love with it how we did.”
Wedding days carry so many magical moments, and S + T’s day was no different. We love hearing about which moments were their favorite + most memorable! “Our favorite part of the day was being surrounded with all the people who shared and helped shape our lives! Committing to each other in front of all of the people who love and support us felt so surreal and I wouldn’t have wanted it anywhere else besides the chapel at the Emerson. We were drawn to the chapel because of how intimate, organic and intentional it felt when we toured and on the day of it felt more perfect to be married in there than we could’ve imagined! That was probably our most memorable moment as well! I do remember waiting inside right before I was going to walk down the aisle and I just felt at peace!”
S’s advice to those who are currently planning is so valuable + helps put the season of wedding planning in perspective! “My advice to anyone wedding planning would be to not get too caught up on the details! The most important thing is you are marrying the love of your life and the day of that’s all you’ll be thinking of! You won’t care about the tiny details or anything that could go wrong so I would say not to put too much pressure on details and do not listen to others opinions! Put your focus into getting ready for marriage with your partner- all the small details of the wedding will fall together! This will be the best day of your life not a stressful one!”
