Winter Wedding at The Barn at Valhalla in Raleigh | Kiara & Lincoln

This gorgeous winter wedding at The Barn at Valhalla was one of my final weddings of 2020. Whoa, what a year we had! For a fact, nearly half of my weddings for the year were either cancelled or rescheduled. It was emotional all the time and tough oftentimes, but we stayed strong and made it through! *Pops Champagne!* Needless to say, I was so happy Kiara and Lincoln were able to celebrate their love for one another without rescheduling their original date. Although the celebration was much smaller than originally anticipated, you’ll see throughout these images the moments of love and beauty were truly never compromised!

LOVE IS NOT CANCELLED

In order to make sure Kiara and Lincoln could keep their winter wedding dreams alive, the couple limited their guest count to immediate family and close friends only. The day was shortened and didn’t include a dance party, but it was important to the couple to maintain safety in the midst of their happy celebration. I hope they inspire you to proceed with your own celebration no matter what comes your way. Love truly is not cancelled.

For more inspiration on celebrating safely during our current restrictions, check out this alternative private vow reading I’ve also highlighted!
