A Love Story Years in the Making

Some love stories begin with a spark, some with a chance meeting--but for The Burns, their story began way back in middle school. From awkward teenage years to adulthood, they've grown up together, laughed together and built a bond that is as deep and loyal as it gets. Being around them, you can feel that their love has roots--it's the kind of "old love" that is steady and burns with a warmth you don't see every day.

The Sweetest & Funniest Pair

Individually, they are wonderful people. Sierra is the sweetest, most genuine friend. And although Caleb can be pretty serious at times, he really knows how to let loose! But together? They are the kind of couple who can make you belly laugh one moment and melt your heart the next. They even have their own secret handshake, as if they needed anything else to make them any cuter.


Sierra is such a family person and made it a priority to have first looks with her dad, brother and nephews-who absolutely adore their aunt by the way. Tears were definitely shed.

Coming Home for the Big Day

Though they lives in Nashville, Tennessee at the time. Sierra and Caleb knew there was no place they'd rather say "I do" than back at home. They wanted their friends and family to be able to celebrate without the stress of travel. That choice made the day even more meaningful, rain and all. And yes--it did rain almost all day long--but that didn't stop them from having the absolute best time.


The bridal party looked stunning head-to-toe in their chic, timeless, black-tie elegance. They added the sophistication to the day while still keeping everything warm and fun.

Coming Home for the Big Day

When during Caleb and Sierra's first look, we knew we probably wouldn't get the sunset we had hoped for--forecast looked rough all day long. So while it was just the three of us, we decided to add in as many portraits as we could before we added the bridal party. I am so glad we did and Sierra and Caleb let their love and fun spirits burst through in every portrait.

A Party to Remember

From the very beginning of the reception, you could tell this was going to be a night no one would forget. Their introduction dance was nothing short of EPIC, setting the tone for a night of energy, laughter and nonstop celebration. The speeches were the perfect mix of tear-jerking sentiment and laugh-out-loud humor.


When the dancing started, the room came alive. The Burns love a good party and they made sure everyone else was right there with them. Rain outside, pure joy inside--it was a celebration through and through.
