Elegant Wedding at Crystal Ballroom Charlotte

Chris and Jasmine’s elegant wedding at the Crystal Ballroom in Charlotte was straight out of a fairytale! We arrived at the hotel to find the girls in the middle of hair and makeup! We started the day with all of Jasmine’s beautiful details!

Jasmine shared a fun first look with her girls followed by a teary first look with her Dad! Before long, it was time for the ceremony to begin! The moment that Chris saw Jasmine for the first time down the aisle was so sweet! Chris and Jasmine exchanged vows and ended the ceremony with their first kiss as husband and wife! Everyone headed outside for formal portraits and cocktail hour following the ceremony! I love that the Crystal Ballroom has a gorgeous outdoor space for portraits! It was perfect for their family, bridal party and couple’s portraits!

Once the reception space was ready, the couple spent a few minutes in the reception before their guest were seated! Wedding days are busy and can feel hectic, so it’s always great to take a few moments to take everything in throughout the day! Chris and Jasmine’s first dance on the clouds was absolutely stunning to witness! Chris shared a sweet dance with his Mom and Jasmine danced with her Father! Everyone enjoyed dinner, cake and dancing throughout the remainder of the evening!

Tell us about your proposal!

We were celebrating our one year dating anniversary on April 1, 2022 at The Fig Tree Restaurant in Charlotte. Chris excused himself to “use the restroom”. After about ten minutes, he walked back to the table, followed by our waiter with the video flash on, and dropped down on one knee. I was so shocked and excited. The whole room started clapping and cheering. The couple at the next table even bought us each a glass of champagne.

What are you most excited about on your special day?

Celebrating our union with family and friends creating memories for a lifetime!
