East Ivy Mansion LGBTQ Wedding | Documentary Photographers
There’s a whole lot I could say about Wil & Dean and their wedding day. But, it is not my story to (verbally) tell. Being invited to be part of this long awaited day was a massive privilege and honor for us. We always feel a great responsibility to capture wedding days, but the weight felt especially palpable on this day. Despite it being a casual Friday wedding with tasteful, relaxed decor, Wil & Dean’s entire day felt like a sacred space. Their nearest & dearest were invited to step inside the gates of East Ivy Mansion in Nashville to witness & celebrate it.
They are two of the most loving, welcoming people we’ve ever met, and their entire day was bursting with hospitality. The blending of cultures (Wil from Guam and Dean from Hawai’i), the outfit change before the reception, and their doggies being involved made the day feel perfectly tailored to them. And don’t get me started on the ceremony, or I will start crying again… There wasn’t a dry eye in the house. I will always smile when I think about the beaming faces of Dean’s parents as they witnessed their son openly promise his life to Wil.
After 17 years of commitment to one another, we were beyond honored to be able to capture this day for Wil & Dean. This one day spent with them taught me more about love than I can even say, and for that I am extremely grateful.
