Charming Summer Wedding
Carolina Legacy Farmhouse
Kenly, NC
On July 19, 2025, Gabbie and Devin’s love story blossomed in a charming summer wedding at the cozy Carolina Legacy Farmhouse in Selma, NC—a venue that perfectly balances intimate warmth with romantic elegance. We first met Gabbie’s mom and sister at the Cocktails with Cupid event at Pinehill Pavilion, where, as ultra-preferred vendors, we forged an instant bond. Planning with them was a joy—95% of the time, it was a family affair, filled with love and excitement for Gabbie and Devin’s big day, ensuring every detail felt welcoming and personal.
Their journey with us began with an engagement session at the JC Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh, where we captured stunning visuals of their chemistry amid lush greenery and shared photo and video tips to prepare them for their wedding day. Check out those vibrant moments in our Instagram Stories highlight here. Gabbie’s radiant energy and Devin’s warm charm set the stage for a day brimming with romantic elements.
At the Carolina Legacy Farmhouse, the day unfolded with unforgettable moments. Gabbie’s first look with her dad was a beautiful scene, his proud expression glowing as he saw his sweet daughter in her gown. Her first look with Devin, set against the venue’s cozy pond, rocky accents, and charming footbridge, was a romantic element that stole our hearts. Post-ceremony, we captured stunning visuals of the couple amid the venue’s timeless greenery, with drone footage soaring above to showcase the farmhouse’s welcoming elegance. The ceremony was heartfelt, with moving vows and speeches, followed by a romantic cake cutting that felt straight out of a love story.
The reception was a blast—the couple’s shoe game sparked roars of laughter, setting the stage for a lively dance floor brought to life by ShanSound Entertainment’s electrifying playlist. A massive dancefloor group photo captured the celebration’s joyful spirit. Gabbie shone in her Maggie Sottero gown, while Devin and his groomsmen looked sharp in GQ Menswear attire. Parkside Cafe & Catering’s delicious spread kept guests raving, adding to the warm, inviting atmosphere.
