Renaissance Resort World Golf Village Wedding

Klodi and Ana are both Albanian and incorporated many of their culture’s traditions into their World Golf Village wedding. We really enjoyed learning all about these traditions and witnessing them first hand! Their wedding day was absolutely beautiful – the weather was perfect (though a bit warmer than any of us were anticipating!) and Ana’s vision really came together.

The day began in family homes – I (Bri) was with Ana and the girls in one and Michael was with Klodi and the guys in the other. There was so much beautiful light coming in through the girls’ house – and they had prepared by moving furniture out and making sure there were big open spaces for photos! I was so impressed!

How sweet is this moment?

This accent wall was EVERYTHING – and so perfect for hanging Ana’s beautiful dress!

Ana’s sisters helped her get ready in the morning!

Meanwhile, Michael was hanging out with Klodi and the guys.

Love this moment with Klodi’s niece – one of the flower girls!

Then it was time for their first look at Walter Jones Park in Mandarin.

Klodi’s reaction was pure joy!

Two of our favorite moments!

Next, Ana went to her parent’s home to wait for Klodi to come pick her up for the ceremony. All of her family members were there to welcome him and his family!
