Jordan and Graham’s Dr. Phillips Center wedding was the epitome of elegance and heartfelt moments, a day that truly reflected their beautiful journey together. The most important part to planning our wedding was to have our day stress-free, and an easy transition from getting ready, ceremony, cocktail hour and reception which is exactly how it went!

Jordan and Graham have been together for 6 years. They met in Chiropractic School and have been inseparable ever since! Graham proposed to Jordan in Mexico on the beach as a surprise with her best friends there. They were both so excited and nervous to say ‘I do’.

Jordan started the day by popping some bubbly with her girls. The excitement in the air was unmissable, a prelude to the day’s joy and elegance. And then came the moment when Jordan stepped into her wedding dress – and wow, just wow. It was classy, stunning, and everything you’d imagine in a dress that screams ‘this is it, the big day.’

And if you thought that was heart-melting, the first look with her dad had the same effect. The moment he saw Jordan, it was pure emotion – the kind that speaks volumes of a father’s love for his daughter. It was one of those pause-and-cherish-every-second moments, filled with big smiles and maybe a few happy tears ;), setting the tone for the rest of the day.

Then, there was the moment Jordan and Graham saw each other for the first time… their first look. This first look with her soon-to-be husband was magic, pure and simple. The way Graham’s eyes lit up, the tender smile that spread across Jordan’s face – it was a scene full of love and excitement. In that moment, nothing else existed but the two of them. It was a beautiful, intimate pause before the whirlwind of the day continued.

Following these heartfelt first looks, the couple and their bridal party snapped some photos together, and honestly, it was as fun as it sounds. These weren’t just any photos; they were snapshots of joy, friendship, and the beginning of a new chapter.

The festivities kicked off with the bridal party making their entrance followed by Jordan and Graham! The first dance that followed was a beautiful display of their connection. The toasts were heartfelt, filled with laughter and tears, encapsulating the love and support surrounding the couple. The cake cutting was a sweet interlude, symbolizing their first act as a married couple. The best part of our wedding day was seeing family and friends, who came from all around the United States, and having a great time with them on the dance floor.

As the night drew to a close, Jordan and Graham’s wedding at the Dr. Phillips Center left everyone with hearts full and memories that would last a lifetime. From the stunning visual feast of the white and black theme to the emotional depth of the ceremonies and speeches, every detail was a reflection of their love story.

Some advice from the couple: “Forget all the things you think you’re “supposed to do” at a wedding, and just plan it how you want it to go. Traditional is classy and fun, but it’s not *your* wedding if you don’t cater it to you and your partner and what the two of you enjoy.”
