The Chapel at the Waters Wedding

Posted in: Weddings

Weddings are always special, but there’s an extra sweetness to a couple choosing an unconventional day to say “I do” because it just makes sense for them. June and Justin tied the knot on a beautiful Monday afternoon at The Chapel at The Waters, a decision that perfectly reflected their thoughtful, intentional love story.

Justin, a sports writer in Auburn, knew his schedule would be packed once basketball season rolled around, so rather than waiting, they embraced the opportunity to start their forever sooner rather than later. It was fitting, really—after all, Auburn basketball was a major topic on their very first date. Their shared love for the game was just the beginning of a connection that led them to this moment.

Before the ceremony, June and Justin shared a private first look. As soon as they saw each other, the emotions took over—both of them tearing up at the sight of the other in their wedding attire. The groom’s reaction said everything about how much this day meant to them both.

June’s bridal look was classic and sentimental, with two details that held deep meaning. She wore her late grandmother’s diamond necklace, a timeless piece that kept her grandmother close on this special day. She also draped a fur shawl over her shoulders, its lining embroidered with her grandmother’s name—a beautiful tribute to a woman who clearly meant so much to her.

The Chapel at The Waters provided the perfect setting for their vows, surrounded by family and friends who had gathered to celebrate their love. The intimate feel of a weekday wedding made each moment even more meaningful, reminding everyone that love isn’t about the date—it’s about the commitment, the emotions, and the joy of starting a new chapter together.

June and Justin, your wedding was a beautiful reflection of who you are as a couple—deeply connected, sentimental, and full of love. Thank you for inviting me to be part of this special day in your lives. Wishing you a lifetime of happiness (and many more Auburn basketball games together)!
