COVER FINALIST

Christina & Mike Nolte
OCTOBER 7, 2017 / PHOTOGRAPHY BY: ANNA BOWSER PHOTOGRAPHY

FOREVER YOURS

MARRIED ON A MOUNTAIN

Christina Evans was visiting a friend at college
when she met Mike Nolte, and immediately
found his blue eyes and competitive spirit
irresistable. They bonded over their love
of thrill-seeking adventures, discovering
they'd often crossed paths without realizing
it. Their first date would come later, after
college and both of them in the same city.
Mike surprised Christina with a trip to
Roanoke to hike McAfee Knob. The trail was
closed, however, and Mike acted quickly,
heading to Mill Mountain. He asked a couple
to take their photo and as he got down one
one knee, Christina realized her forever
date was asking her to be his forever wife.

Christina and Mike's incredibly unique
wedding ceremony took place at the top of
McAfee Knob, their favorite hike. They'd
joked about getting married on a mountain,
but the thought of actually doing so made
them both realize it was everything they
wanted for their wedding. In the end, they
threw out their original plans, strapped their
dress and suit to their backpacks and asked
guests to dress in their best wedding hiking
gear to celebrate their nuptials.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

The couple's reception took place at the
base of the mountain at The Homeplace.

Southern cooking was shared around the
table with friends and family, who'd more
than earned a good meal after their eightmile hike!
Christina's bouquet was made up of
peach dahlias, roses and cascading greenery.
Centerpieces of mason jars held wildflowers,
while their cake was designed to match the
birchwood bark invitations.
ADVENTURE SEEKERS

The newlyweds' favorite memory was climbing out to the edge of the mountain so they
could take photos in their wedding attire,
which definitely speaks to their adventurous natures!
