Attire: Come as you Are
Before the vows, before the celebration—let's rewind to the spot where Andrew enjoyed a smash burger and a hazy IPA after a hike at Whitewater Falls—the moment when he posted the photos that first caught Susan's eye. Little did they know that encounter while Andrew sat at Whiteside Brewing would be the start of their life together! Join us to raise a glass to their past, present and beautiful journey ahead! Live Music with Woolybooger - dubbed “music to grow your hair out to,” the Murphy musician, Gavin Graves, is well-regarded for his mix of blues and roots music into a unique Southern Appalachian tone.

Chimney Pond Farm
240 Chimney Pond Road, Glenville, NC, 28736
Chimney Pond Farm holds a special place in our hearts. It is where Susan and her girls, along with their grandparents, would visit the elf village at Tom Sawyer's Christmas Tree Farm for a pancake breakfast, and some years they would choose the perfect tree for their family Christmas in the mountains. Andrew also fell in love with the beauty of Lake Glenville on his drives to Western Carolina University—surrounded by stunning scenery, often draped in mist and rhododendron blooms, rests 80 acres of fir trees and blueberry bushes with Lake Glenville shimmering in the distance. We can't wait to share it with you. 🤍

Please silence your phones, tuck them away, and join us in being fully present. Our photographer will capture our smiles and kisses—you just sit back and soak it all in. After the ceremony, feel free to snap, share, and tag using #SapandSusan #TyingtheKnotonTop #GodsPerfectTiming Thank you for sharing this moment with us. Your presence is the best gift of all. With love, Susan & Andrew

Cocktail hour that’s as elevated as the mountain views! Think local brews and a dash of Southern charm.

Bursting with fresh blackberries, a hint of herbs, and a touch of mountain magic, it’s the perfect sip to celebrate our love and new beginnings while you mingle and soak in the mountain magic.

Finish your stir-fry with bold and flavorful sauces: 🥜 Peanut Satay 🌶️ Sweet Thai Chili 🍜 Pad Thai Sauce 🔥 Sriracha Kick 🍝 Little Italy Station—Andrew's favorite! 🇮🇹 Hearty, homey, and full of Italian soul: 🐚 Stuffed Shells brimming with creamy ricotta 🧀 Tortellini Pasta packed with cheesy goodness 🫑 Sweet Italian Sausage sautéed with peppers & onions for that perfect rustic bite. 🥗 Fresh Picked Salad Station A garden-fresh way to balance it all. Mixed greens, crisp Vidalia onions, sweet seasonal berries, chopped pecans, crumbled blue cheese, and a choice of White Balsamic Vinaigrette or Buttermilk Ranch dressing. 🦸 Kid-Friendly Favorite: Simple and satisfying Jasmine rice with butter — just like Nana (or Nonna!) would serve. 🍰 Sweet Endings Every celebration deserves a decadent finale—and ours is extra special! Our Wedding Cake 🍓🫐🌿: A beautiful vanilla cake with ivory buttercream frosting, naked style, topped with seasonal berries—strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries—garnished with fresh sage and mint. From our favorite Publix, where shopping has been a pleasure since childhood—and in honor of our dear friend Shelley’s recent retirement as Publix’s longtime Marketing Manager 💚 Macaron Tower: A kaleidoscopic display of colorful bites—elegant, airy, and utterly irresistible. Bite-sized Pies 🎣: A rustic dessert specially chosen for Andrew—a sweet tribute to the one who reeled in his forever catch.
