May 3, 2025 // Ceremony and reception at the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion
Ashlyn and Koty celebrated their marriage on a spring Saturday in May, bringing family and friends together at the Bragg Mitchell Mansion. A stunning coral and green pairing set the tone and appeared in the florals and decorations, giving the proceedings a slight Bohemian feel. The ceremony included a brief time of prayer with the bride and groom’s family, a moment the bride lists as a highlight of the day.
After the vows were said, the reception began. The bride’s intentionality was evident through the custom drink stirrers and matchbook covers and the softly textured cake design. However, the cherry on top came when, at the reception, she surprised her mother with a mother-daughter moment before the ceremony, captured on canvas by a live painter. Dancing, eating and celebrating continued as the sun set, and the evening eventually concluded with the couple’s exit.
