East Alabama Living Spring 2022 Issue

Brooke and Tim experienced early that their
love “knows no bounds.” Tim left on a fourmonth
deployment only five short months after
their engagement in June 2020. With planning
officially underway, Brooke considered the pair’s
already demanding schedules as she assembled
a top-notch team to carry out her vision.
Despite the distance and absence of time,
Brooke and Tim’s vision unfolded beautifully
on the day of their wedding while honoring
both of their families. An earring from the
mother-of-the-bride and mother-of-thegroom,
as well as an antique handkerchief
from Tim’s maternal grandmother, adorned
the bridal bouquet. In addition, the couple
held a traditional military wedding performed
by an Army chaplain, and an official saber
arch greeted the newly married couple.
Brooke gifted her bridal party a set of PJ
Harlow pajamas and a pair of hand-selected
earrings from the Anna Cate collection
exclusively found at her boutique, Magnolia
James. The bridesmaids’ ensemble of white
gowns bolstered the simplicity and beauty of
Brooke in her white-laced Monique Lhuillierdesigned
gown. The couple gleamed against
the luscious gable of florals in hues of blues
and orange, depicting their love of Auburn.
Brooke states, “Our personalities shined
through in the color scheme and decor. It was
great to see it all come together so beautifully.”
Brooke’s young cousin, Sadie, was a highlight
of the ceremony as she sashayed down the aisle
sporting a floral crown pulling alongside her
younger brother, Sam, serving as ring bearer.
The reception was stately, with classic blue
and white accents incorporated throughout
the celebration. The vintage ginger jars which
graced the guest tables were family pieces.
The overall tenor was timeless, elegant, and
quintessentially Southern in feel.
As the bride recounts, “It was a beautiful
spring day, and I remember being so happy
and blissful. Every detail was amazing. Tim
and I wanted it to feel like our own little fairytale,
and it was just that!”
