Jillian and Michael were married at the Emmett Robinson Theater at College of Charleston, their alma mater. Their officiant was their former theater professor, Joy Vandervort-Cobb. They had a movie-themed reception with television screens looping their engagement photos and movie popcorn and movie quotes decor. There was even a life-sized Ron Weasley from Harry Potter on the dance floor! Sally Watts Photo captured the day and shared it with us. Check out this theatrical wedding full of awesome details.

  4. I love the theme and the bride's smile. But what popped out -because my fiance is currently lookin for his clothes (and wow do shops railroad men into a sea of black) I must say:

    HUGE KUDOS to the groom for NOT WEARING A TUX!! He surely has a great eye for color because that is a fantastic suit + shirt + vest + tie combo. It looks wonderful on him. Classy and exuberant.
