A British-Inspired Wedding In The North Carolina Mountains 22 Years In The Making!

After 22 loving years together, this couple decided to tie the knot and their wedding day was nothing short of epic! The team at John Lupton Events paid special mind to the couple’s combined interests and weaved it into the theme of the day beautifully. Both their love of travel to the UK and their prized Rolls Royce made appearances in fun and unique ways. This long-lasting love was beautifully captured in the elegant imagery by Demi Mabry Photography. Visit the full gallery for a closer look at all the special touches.







From Demi Mabry PhotographyJoe and Chris met on a project at work in Charlotte, NC. After 22 years together, Chris turned to Joe and said, “it’s time.” These two finally stood before their friends and family in a beautiful, fall wedding in Blowing Rock, NC!





Their morning wedding honors their parents, as each of them was wed in the morning. The British traditions – their custom morning suits and tea – honors Chris’ heritage. They also spend frequent time in the UK as Rolls Royce owners. These two LOVE their vintage Rolls Royce and enjoyed incorporating it into their wedding day!





The menu and wine selections all represent sentimental favorites with meaning from Chris and Joe’s life together. The team at John Lupton Events did an amazing job bringing this mountain wedding together for Joe and Chris and it was a joy to photograph!
