Rachel & Drew

On a crisp autumn afternoon at VanLandingham Estate in Charlotte, Rachel and Drew exchanged vows surrounded by the warmth of fall. Beneath golden leaves and clear Carolina skies, they chose a romantic ceremony in the round — guests encircling them, creating an atmosphere that felt intimate, intentional, and deeply personal.

Their palette embraced the richness of the season, weaving black and deep brown tones into a foundation of soft, neutral hues. The result was timeless yet modern — an editorial take on autumn that felt refined, moody, and effortlessly elegant, just like their love story.
