Lindsey and Grae, What could be better than getting married to your best friend in the evening and then hours later celebrating the New Year? Absolutely nothing according to Lindsey and Grae. With their busy schedules during the year, having a New Years' Eve wedding not only sounded amazing but it was perfect timing. Though the actual day was cloudy and rainy, nothing could have dampened the excitement and joy for them, their families, and their friends.
Choosing a more traditional route of not having a first look, the day was very laid back and both Grae and Lindsey got to have intentional time with their bridal parties. It was so wonderful to see how much everyone around them loved them and was so excited for them. Lindsey looked breathtaking in her gorgeous wedding gown that had the most beautiful train. She just glowed in it effortlessly. Grae also looked great in a black tuxedo with a white vest and bow tie. The centerpiece of the ceremony, though, was the grand cross decorated in purely white flowers that hung above and between them symbolizing that Christ held them together as one. The ceremony was beautiful as they recited assurances of their love being in, through, and motivated by Christ as well as traditional vows.
The reception that followed included speeches from the father of the bride, father of the groom, maid of honor, and best man. It was evident that both families were more than happy with the partners that their child chose and more than happy to become a family together. It was such a sweet break between the ceremony and the celebration.
The celebration was the biggest one of the year! DJ Derrick played all the right songs. The food was incredible. The beautifully decorated ballroom glowed and glistened elegantly. And to top everything off, a firework show surprised everyone included Lindsey who wanted fireworks for New Year's Eve. It was so much fun! Everyone danced and celebrated until the countdown to the New Year. (What a way to end an eventful/crazy year!) Afterward, everyone lined up outside and sent Lindsey and Grae off with a sparkler exit to ride away in a vintage Rolls Royce. The wedding day of Lindsey and Grae couldn’t have been any sweeter and amazing.
Lindsey and Grae were married on December 31, 2020, at The Jefferson in Oxford, Mississippi.
