North Carolina couple ties the knot in a small town black and gold wedding with big time formal flare
Real Weddings: Tia & Tevin
We wrote about high school sweethearts Tia & Tevin as they showed off their love in an engagement shoot in their hometown. Read about their proposal here. Fast forward to New Year’s Eve in the year 2021. Tevin, a physical therapist and graduate of Winston Salem State University as well as Duke University, got to watch his lace-laden bride be escorted down the aisle by her father in order to make true on their promise to be wed in holy matrimony. Tia, who is a lawyer with degrees from Queens University of Charlotte and Elon University School of Law, ravished the 200 guests in attendance. The couple’s guests all understood the assignment, which was to participate in a formal, all black dress code. While their wedding affair was in their small town where their love story began in those tender teenage years, there was no shortage of pizazz at their wedding which was the talk of the town.
