Nestled in the serene beauty of Asheville, NC, Old Sherrill’s Inn was the perfect backdrop for Allegra and Josh’s heartfelt June wedding. Their celebration was a reflection of their adventurous spirits and thoughtful, family-oriented natures, with every detail carefully chosen to honor their love and the people they hold dear.
Allegra and Josh are two wildly bright (both in terms of their smarts and their aura) and creative individuals who radiate warmth and authenticity. Their choice of Old Sherrill’s Inn was deeply personal—close to where Josh’s grandparents lived and a place they both love. The setting’s historic charm and mountain views added an extra layer of meaning to their day.
The weekend began with a lively welcome party that showcased Allegra and Josh’s fun, laid-back personalities. Documenting not just their wedding day but also the gathering of their loved ones was a privilege. The sense of connection and celebration was palpable, setting the tone for a memorable weekend.
On the wedding day, the weather brought a mix of overcast skies, sunshine, and light drizzle. Instead of letting it dampen the mood, Allegra and Josh embraced the elements, adding spontaneity and charm to their celebration. Their decision to forgo a traditional wedding party allowed them to focus on each other and their loved ones, creating an intimate and heartfelt atmosphere.
Their ceremony, held on the old grass tennis court of Old Sherrill’s Inn, was simple yet deeply meaningful. Surrounded by towering trees and the quiet beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Allegra and Josh exchanged vows that reflected their thoughtful and tender connection. Later, a family-style dinner under a tent and twinkling string lights brought everyone together in a celebration of love and togetherness.
As their photographer, I sought to capture the essence of Allegra and Josh’s bond. Their sweet interactions and genuine joy made the job easy. From quiet, stolen moments during portraits to their laughter in the light rain, their day felt authentic and true to who they are. The warmth and appreciation I felt from them, their families, and their friends was a highlight I’ll always treasure.
Old Sherrill’s Inn provided the perfect canvas for their wedding—steeped in history and surrounded by natural beauty. As an Asheville wedding photographer, I was thrilled to capture its timeless charm and idyllic setting near Hickory Nut Gap, which made it an unforgettable venue for Allegra and Josh’s elegant yet relaxed celebration.
Their wedding was a beautiful reminder of what makes love stories so special—the thoughtfulness, laughter, and meaningful moments shared with those who matter most. Documenting their journey and preserving these memories was an honor I’ll always cherish.
To Allegra and Josh: thank you for welcoming me into your world. Your love story is one I’ll never forget, and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it.
