Clorissa and Alex – July 2, 2023
Summer Elopement in the Smoky Mountains
Let’s celebrate the beautiful love story of Clorissa and Alex as they embarked on their summer elopement in the enchanting Smoky Mountains! Clorissa and Alex chose Chapel in the Hollow as the perfect setting for their intimate ceremony, and the result was pure magic. The chapel was elegantly adorned in white fabric, creating a dreamy atmosphere that perfectly complemented their love-filled day. The wildflower florals added a touch of whimsy and natural beauty to the overall ambiance.
One of the highlights of their celebration was the adorable naked cake from Cakes by Bakin’ Bishop, adorned with a unique Etsy topper that added a personalized touch to their special day. The couple’s attention to detail and creativity truly shone through. Clorissa looked absolutely stunning in her boho off-the-shoulder dress, radiating bohemian elegance. Her mid-size veil added an extra touch of romance to her bridal ensemble, while the wildflowers in her hair added a touch of natural beauty. Alex looked dapper in a crisp white shirt paired with dress pants, perfectly complementing his bride’s ethereal look.
Their love story is nothing short of serendipitous. Meeting in high school and then going their separate ways, fate brought them back together when they unexpectedly became neighbors years later. Their love story is a testament to the power of destiny and second chances. We feel honored to have been a part of Clorissa and Alex’s special day, witnessing their love and commitment as they embarked on this new chapter of their lives together. May their journey be filled with endless love, joy, and beautiful adventures. Congratulations to the happy couple!
From the Bride:
We went to high school together and reconnected after we graduated and was living in the same area. We went on our first date very young, don’t remember details. Alex proposed, we had been living together since 2018 and he proposed in 2021 at our home with all of our fur babies. We decided on an East Tennessee wedding because his mom moved to TN a few years ago and I fell in love. It’s gorgeous, beautiful weather and not too far from OH. We are looking forward to being able to spend some quality time together. For fun, we love trying new food places, being outdoors, spending quality time together and watching our favorite shows.
