summer mountain wedding at the parker mill, whittier, nc

Summer wedding with mountain views for days!

Nestled deep in the mountains of North Carolina, Michaella & Derek’s wedding was nothing short of magical. Traveling from Florida with their beloved pup, Percy, they chose The Parker Mill as the perfect place to say “I do.”

Before the festivities, they shared a heartfelt first look and private vows on the front lawn—just the two of them, soaking in the moment. With the mountains as their backdrop, they exchanged vows on the pavilion, surrounded by their loved ones. After grabbing a slice of pizza out of the food truck window, Michaella & Derek hopped into a 4x4 and climbed to the mountaintop for breathtaking golden hour portraits. As the night unfolded, the dance floor was electric with love and laughter, culminating in a surprise firework show under the stars. A day filled with adventure, romance, and unforgettable memories—just like their love story.
