Nina + Matt's Downtown Charlotte Wedding

It was a suuuuper chilly day in Queen City. Family crossed great distances, even all the way from Georgia, the bride's home country, to celebrate the union of these two. They first met working at Chima, so it was the perfect spot for their reception. Since their hospitality days, they've built a life together here in Charlotte.
