An elopement in at the courthouse in downtown Fayetteville, NC!! Right outside of Fort Bragg! I was just tickled to find out that Gabi followed me as soon as she saw my work and then called me a few days after her engagement... aw!!
It's no secret that military bases often see a flurry of nuptials. Take Fort Bragg, named as Fort Liberty. While the name change may be official, old habits die hard, and I'll stick to calling it Fort Bragg. If you're wondering how have your wedding or elope in Fayetteville, NC, at the courthouse, it's refreshingly straightforward—no appointments needed. Just like a haircut, they're happy to accommodate walk-ins :D
We kicked off our adventure on the west side of Hayes Street in Haymont, Fayetteville NC, capturing intimate moments by the charming old buildings. Venturing into the heart of downtown Fayetteville, by the historic courthouse, we had to stop for more photos. In Fayetteville NC, the ceremony takes place at the Cumberland Detention Center, where the "I DOs" were officially exchanged. While I couldn't join them inside due to camera restrictions, it was a brief and smooth process. No worries, as we were swiftly back to the excitement, capturing more memories!

I absolutely loved the opportunity to get incredibly creative with some of these shots! Typically, there isn't much time allocated for bride and groom photos on a wedding day. We ended the elopement day with photos ontop of a parking garage! If photography holds significant importance for your special day, I highly recommend carving out ample time in your schedule, perhaps even dedicating a day solely to bridal portraits... or you could simply opt for an elopement!
