On May 11, 2024, Megan and Alex tied the knot with the garden-style wedding of their dreams. Hosted at the Cypress Grove Estate House in Orlando, Florida, and surrounded by their family, friends, and their beloved dog, Miller—in spirit, at least- their celebration was everything they had imagined!
Megan and Alex’s story began at Clemson University when their fraternity and sorority were paired together for a homecoming float project. Years later, after building a life together in Charlotte, Alex proposed in their newly purchased home with their dog Miller by his side.
Alex and Megan made the most of the beauty of nature for their outdoor wedding, creating a magical atmosphere with lush floral arrangements, soft greenery, pastel colors, and romantic lighting. Twinkle lights and candles added warmth, while custom details like personalized decks of cards at each seat (a nod to their love of games) and a figurine of their dog Miller on the cake made the celebration their own.
Cypress Grove Estate House was perfect for the occasion, with its gazebo for the wedding ceremony, the amphitheater for cocktails and dancing, and the outdoor space on the grand lawn for the wedding reception. The natural beauty of the event spaces was lovely, making it the perfect garden wedding venue for them!
Megan and Alex’s wedding was full of unforgettable moments. Their ceremony under the gazebo was particularly meaningful, featuring an Irish wedding blessing to honor family traditions. From getting ready with their wedding party to dancing the night away at the reception, every moment was special!
One of their favorite memories was grabbing a group photo with all the Clemson alumni in attendance—a fun nod to the couple’s alma mater and how they first met!
Planning such a special event takes a village, and Megan and Alex trusted Blush to bring their vision to life. Their goal was to focus on creating an unforgettable experience for their wedding guests, and the team at Blush delivered.
In Megan’s own words:
“We were confident Blush would guide us through the process, helping us select the best vendors and maximize our wedding budget while delivering on our vision. On the wedding day, Sophia ensured every detail went smoothly, so we could fully enjoy our celebration.”

Megan made a fun video about the moment on Instagram. Fear not though, Alex was involved in every step of the planning process!
