We met as children at South Hampton Elementary School, two young “baby Bulldogs” finding our way in the world. We attended many of the same schools through the years, building a friendship that grew alongside us. Our path led us to Alabama A&M University, where, in the fall of 2019, that friendship deepened into love. From that moment we’ve shared new traditions, became alumni bulldogs, supported each other’s goals, and looked forward to a lifetime together. We’re grateful for every step of the journey that brings us to our wedding day in Birmingham on September 12, 2027.
For this special occasion, we request that you join us in a shared aesthetic of timeless elegance by wearing all-white attire. We are, of course, familiar with the charming tradition of putting away white after Labor Day and not wearing white to other people's weddings. However, we're making an exception and inviting you to wear your most elegant ivory and pure white ensembles one last time this season to create a luminous and memorable atmosphere for our event. Please observe the following attire guidelines: For Women: Cocktail dresses in white, ivory, or cream (knee-length to tea-length is preferred). Elegant jumpsuits or sophisticated separates are also welcome. Please select polished fabrics over casual linen or cotton. Metallic accents (gold or silver jewelry/shoes) are encouraged. For Men: A suit jacket or blazer is encouraged but not required White or cream trousers/chinos. A crisp, white collared dress shirt. Ties are optional but encouraged to complete the semi-formal look. Feel free to go bold with metallic gold and silver ties. We are excited to share this beautiful evening with you.
