We have a special place in our hearts for Josh & Allison! For the last 2 years, we had community group every Tuesday & Josh was a regular attender. He & Ryland have even done some crazy races together including this one! And then one day …

Josh called Ryland to say, “I won’t be at community group tonight. I am going out on a date! I met someone this weekend …” Little did we know that just a few months later would we meet Allison, love her to pieces & the rest would be history!

Josh & Allison had a destination wedding at Old Edwards Inn in Cashiers, NC. This beautiful mountain town was the perfect backdrop for their elegant wedding! With both of their pups by their side, Allison’s parents all the way from France, & their best friends cheering them on, it was such a meaningful & beautiful wedding to be a part of!

Upstate I Do planned an amazing wedding for everyone to enjoy! The bridesmaids in their elegant blue dresses were the perfect pairing with Katelyn Pinner’s stunning florals. Laddie Neil Art painted at the reception while guests admired her beautiful work & Steel Toe Stilettos kept EVERYONE dancing all evening long! It was such a glorious wedding weekend & we were so thrilled to be a part of it!

Josh & Allison, we loved watching you two fall in love over the last 2 years. What an honor to stand by your side & be a witness to your new covenant. Thank you for the honor of capturing your wedding day! Many more baklavas & wine nights to come!! We love you both with our whole hearts.

Love, The Rainsfords
