A Dreamy Spring Wedding at The Fairhope Inn | Gracie + Joe

Can you have a perfect wedding day? I really think you can… and Gracie and Joe’s celebration at The Fairhope Inn was living proof.

From start to finish, their day felt like spring came alive just for them. The azaleas were in full bloom, the soft spring breeze was perfection, and every single detail was a reflection of their joy. It was the kind of wedding that felt warm and meaningful—and also just stunning.

Their ceremony at St. Francis at the Point was timeless and full of emotion. The stained glass glowed with the afternoon light, and the moment Gracie walked down the aisle? Absolutely unforgettable. Then it was off to The Fairhope Inn, one of my favorite hidden gems in Fairhope, Alabama. This charming bed and breakfast turned wedding venue has such a quaint and romantic atmosphere—it couldn’t have been a more perfect backdrop for their spring soirée.

Every inch of the space was adorned with lush florals and thoughtful touches. The reception felt like a garden party in the best way—with pastel linens, soft floral centerpieces, and even whimsical hanging butterflies that added such a fun and personal element. Oh, and their wedding cake setup in the gazebo? Chef’s kiss.

Gracie wore a stunning gown that flowed so gracefully as she moved, and her bridesmaids wore the prettiest patterned dresses that added a playful pop to the color palette. And can we talk about those bright blooms? The florals were unreal in the best way—full of color, texture, and joy.

But more than all the pretty details, what made this day so memorable was Gracie and Joe themselves. They were relaxed, fully present, and genuinely soaking in every moment. You could feel their love, not just in the big moments, but in the way they looked at each other and laughed with their favorite people.

To Gracie + Joe—thank you for letting me be part of something so special. Your day was filled with so much beauty and heart, and I’m still smiling about it.

If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels timeless, joyful, and a little magical—The Fairhope Inn might just be the perfect place.
