Valentine’s Day, the pair returned home to lit candles, music and Champagne on ice, coordinated by Yannick and his best friend, Toia Harris. Thinking the evening’s surprises were over, May changed into pajamas to enjoy a glass of bubbly. She spilled some of the drink while opening the bottle and was so busy cleaning up that she didn’t notice Yannick on one knee. “Don’t get any of that on what I have in my hand!” he said, holding a custom Boudov diamond engagement ring. May, shocked, screamed, “Yes!” Finally, “I Do” Brianna Church of Raleigh’s Pink Planner Events organized the ceremony and reception at The Cookery. The groomsmen wore tuxes from Bernard’s Formalwear, and Posh The Salon styled May’s hair. Guests enjoyed Mediterranean fare from Bleu Olive Bistro while Samantha Everette Photography captured special moments on the big day.
