Rustic Elegance: Grace and Ethan’s Fall Wedding at Circle M City, Sanford, NC
As Raleigh wedding photographers, we had the honor of capturing Grace and Ethan’s wedding at the unique Circle M City, a Western-inspired venue nestled in the countryside of Sanford, North Carolina. The day was a perfect blend of rustic charm and heartfelt celebration, with personal touches that made their wedding both intimate and memorable.
The day began with the couple surrounded by close family and friends in their home. The atmosphere was warm and joyful as loved ones pitched in to help with hair, makeup, and florals. This collaborative preparation added a personal touch to the day, and the love in the room set the tone for the celebration that would follow.
After the heartfelt preparations, we made our way to the church, where the groomsmen were waiting for their portraits. The relaxed setting allowed for some candid moments, and it was clear that everyone was excited for the ceremony to begin.
Grace and Ethan exchanged vows in a quaint church filled with natural light, which highlighted the simplicity and elegance of the setting. Their heartfelt vows brought tears and smiles to everyone in attendance, and we were able to capture these emotional moments in a natural, unobtrusive way. Being documentary-style photographers, our goal was to capture each moment as it unfolded, preserving the genuine emotions of the day.
Following the ceremony, we traveled with Grace and Ethan to a location that held special meaning for them—a picturesque spot in the countryside where they often spent time together. The late afternoon light and vibrant fall foliage created a stunning backdrop for their portraits, allowing us to capture both the intimacy and timeless quality of their relationship.
Circle M City is a charming Western-style town that served as the perfect venue for their reception. Complete with an authentic saloon, rustic decor, and plenty of outdoor space, this unique venue allowed guests to relax, dance, and celebrate under the stars. Grace and Ethan’s family and friends filled the night with laughter and love, bringing the town to life in true Western style.
