PHOTOS BY NABIS WEDDING

We originally connected through a dating app in 2018. Our first real date was to the Alabama Theatre to watch “Rebel Without A Cause.” Afterwards, we went to Paramount for dinner and played arcade games. We both didn’t want the date to end, so we continued on to Atomic Lounge where we dressed in silly costumes and chatted all night.

Returning from a trip to the Florida Keys, we stopped in Orlando. That night the two of us went into Disney Springs for dinner. Randall booked a balcony table to set the mood. When he got down on one knee, I actually thought he dropped something! It was the best surprise ever when he pulled out the ring!

My favorite wedding moment was the beautiful speeches given by our mothers. We asked our officiant for a traditional Italian ceremony and within that, he asked for dedications to the bride and groom. Our mothers both stood in front of us and gave the most eloquently-spoken dedications to each of us.

The first day we pulled up the drive to Relais Villa la Trinita, I was mesmerized. The villa was originally built in 1892 and is surrounded by rose bushes, hydrangeas, a giant jasmine tree and roman ruins, as the villa sits along Via Cassia. Our favorite thing about our entire wedding other than just the amazing location would have to be the food cooked by Fabio, Matteo and their team at Convivium Laboratorio di Cucina. The day before the wedding, we had a cooking class with Fabio and Matteo at the villa, where we made Supplì al Telefono, Civitonico and five different pasta variations.

(Davis’s point of view): I was walking through the hallways of Vestavia Hills High School when a girl, who I had never seen before, passed by me and caught my eye. I wish I could put into words the way I felt when I first saw her. My only thoughts were, “Wow, I am going to marry her.” Shortly after that encounter, Chandler and I began to spend time together. I unfortunately was 45 minutes late to our first date, but luckily, the first impression must not have been too bad considering we are finally married!

Davis proposed to me at a city overlook that both of us loved to visit when we went on dates. Davis told me we were going out to a nice dinner downtown. I should have known it was coming because he kept nervously fidgeting with the radio every few minutes. It had rained on and off all day, but God was good! For the 30 minutes that Davis and I stood at the overlook, a beautiful, foggy mist covered the area–and no rain! It was absolutely perfect.

My favorite moment of the entire day was walking down the aisle to Davis. I had been an excited, nervous wreck all morning, and so had he. We did a first look, which was absolutely perfect, but I still had excited nerves. As I stood behind the closed doors that were about to open for the ceremony, I remember telling my dad that it was the calmest I felt all day. It was the best feeling.

If I had to pick, my favorite wedding detail has to be the florals. It was a super hot day in late June, but the flowers held up and lasted all night. I adored my bouquet and love to look back and see it “pop” in pictures. It was a dream come true to see my floral pinterest board come to life.
