Some love stories are best told beneath the sweeping branches of ancient oak trees. Connie and Jackson’s wedding at Moss Estates Venue was a beautiful blend of rustic charm and timeless romance, featuring a stunning palette of burgundy, blush, and deep blue. Surrounded by lush greenery and a joyful gathering of loved ones, their day was a heartfelt celebration of love and connection.
The Morning of Forever
As the morning sun filtered through the trees at Moss Estates, Connie and her bridesmaids gathered in the bridal suite, laughter and excitement filling the air. Dressed in matching burgundy satin pajamas, they sipped champagne and reminisced about cherished memories while getting their hair and makeup done by the talented team at M3 Beauty. The room buzzed with joyful anticipation as Connie stepped into her breathtaking lace gown, the final touch to her bridal transformation.

Meanwhile, in the groom’s suite, Jackson and his groomsmen were suiting up in style. Dressed in crisp navy attire, the men shared jokes, adjusted ties, and raised a toast to the groom. The camaraderie was undeniable as they helped Jackson with his finishing touches—his boutonniere pinned, his cufflinks fastened, and a final deep breath taken. With his best friends by his side and his heart full, he was ready to meet his bride and step into forever.
An Intimate First Look
Before walking down the aisle, Connie and Jackson shared a private first look, a moment filled with anticipation and joy. As Jackson turned to see his bride in her breathtaking lace gown, his reaction said it all—pure love and admiration. This intimate exchange gave them a quiet moment together before the celebrations began, allowing them to soak in the significance of the day.
But the most touching first look came when Connie shared a special moment with her new son. As he laid eyes on her, emotion overtook him, and he rushed into her arms, tears streaming down his face. His tight embrace and heartfelt reaction were a beautiful reminder that this day wasn’t just about two people coming together—it was about the joining of a family, filled with love, warmth, and new beginnings.
A Heartfelt Ceremony Under the Oaks
Connie walked down the aisle, escorted by her son, as Jackson stood waiting with emotion in his eyes. Their loyal corgi trotted ahead, adding an extra touch of sweetness to the moment, while their ring security boy proudly carried the rings. The ceremony space was beautifully adorned, with a grand oak tree as the backdrop and a striking triangle arch draped in burgundy and blue florals with blush and white accents. Barrels overflowing with matching arrangements marked the entrance to the aisle, creating a breathtakingly romantic setting.
As they stood before their loved ones, Connie and Jackson exchanged heartfelt vows, their words filled with love and commitment. To symbolize their unity, they performed a braiding ceremony, intertwining strands as a lasting representation of their bond. With joyful laughter and overwhelming love, they sealed their vows with a kiss—officially beginning their forever together. Polk Bros captured every beautiful moment, preserving the raw emotion and love that filled the air on this unforgettable day.
