A Romantic Garden Party Wedding: Maddison & Luke at First Colony Inn
Maddison and Luke’s springtime wedding was undeniably enchanting. Inspired by the charm of a garden party, their day combined natural beauty with refined details, creating an atmosphere that felt both timeless and joyful.
Before the festivities began, Maddison shared precious moments getting ready at her family home—adding an intimate, personal touch to the start of the celebration. From there, the couple made their way to the historic Nags Head venue, where the lush grounds of First Colony Inn set the perfect scene.
A clear-top tent allowed the soft spring light to flood the reception space, where pastel hues, light-colored linens, delicate chairs, and inviting lounge furniture came together to create a bright, airy vibe. Every detail reflected Maddison and Luke’s vision of effortless elegance and warmth.
As the sun set, guests gathered on the dance floor under the stars, with live music keeping the energy high and spirits soaring. From start to finish, this wedding was a beautiful blend of romance, fun, and heartfelt celebration—an unforgettable day for the happy couple and everyone who shared it with them.
This wedding is featured in the 2025 issue of Outer Banks Weddings magazine.
