Samantha and Matthew’s love story begins with first glances at their local gym. First glances turned into small talk and, eventually, an invitation to a coffee date. Samantha describes that Christmas coffee date like this, “He wore a red sweater, ordered a black coffee, had the faintest southern accent, and told me he loved a place called BoJangles. I thought whatever BoJangles was I wanted some. Turns out both the biscuits and the boy are just the best.”

It also turns out that the two of them will never go on another first date again. Because Samantha and Matthew fell completely in love and are totally smitten to spend the rest of their lives dating, loving, and supporting each other. Matthew proposed to Samantha on the rooftop of their Beacon Hill Apartment building and the two of them began planning the wedding of their dreams on Nantucket.

Samantha and Matthew married on the lush green grounds of the Westmoor Club with 160 of their loved ones in attendance. Their special day was filled with simplistic elegance and personalized details…such as their New England/North Carolina inspired menu, in honor of the bride and groom’s respective hometowns.

The joy shared on this day was literally palpable. And their love for each other is simply exquisite. It was a pleasure to play a part in their sweet love story by bringing their wedding plans to life!

As always with wedding planning, it takes a team of wonderful vendors to bring these magical celebrations to life. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of the vendors who helped make this wedding possible!
