It was a special night for the soon-to-be Mr. & Mrs.

A night filled with amazing food, drinks, and, most importantly, their close friends and family.

A night to share memories and swap stories.

A night of reflection and preparation for their wedding at Castle Ladyhawke the next day.

This night was the wedding rehearsal and welcome dinner.

Immediately following their rehearsal, Kezia and Adam chose to host their welcome dinner at Ilda, LLC in the charming town of Sylva, NC. Situated on the corner of Main Street and Mill Street, Ilda offers an intimate dining space and features inventive craft cocktails and artisan Italian-Appalachian cuisine. 

This restaurant is the creation of a husband and wife team and their roots run deep here. The pair focuses on sourcing local ingredients to create dishes that pay homage to their heritage and history. 

Their passion for uniquely crafted cuisine is evident in every dish they serve. 

It was the perfect location for the bride and groom to share delightful dishes and celebrate their lives together with friends and family. 

Kezia & Adam – Thank you for letting us be a part of this special evening. It was an honor to photograph such an important night with your family and friends. The food and drinks were delightful and we truly enjoyed every moment we spent with you two. Thank you for welcoming us into your lives!
