Vista Creek Wedding in Manteo NC | Andrew + Allie

A Love Story That Started With a Swipe

This Vista Creek Wedding in Manteo, NC was a dream!  Andrew and Allie’s Vista Creek wedding in Manteo, NC was a beautiful celebration of friendship, adventure, and a love story that began in the most modern of ways—with a swipe on Tinder.

Like many great love stories, what started as a simple introduction quickly turned into something much deeper. Their first date included bowling, dinner at P.F. Chang’s, and watching a Bruins game together. According to Allie, she won the bowling match, and we have a feeling Andrew has never quite lived that down. From that first date, the two began building a relationship centered around laughter, shared experiences, and a genuine enjoyment of life together.

Building a Life Together

Today, Andrew and Allie fill their days with the things they love most. Whether they are exercising together, traveling, trying new restaurants, spending time at the beach, attending concerts, watching horror movies, or simply enjoying time with friends and family, they have created a life that is full of adventure and companionship.

When asked what they love most about one another, their answers revealed the heart of their relationship. Allie shared that Andrew makes her feel safe and protected. Andrew said that what he loves most about Allie is her heart of gold and her naturally caring spirit.

Throughout their wedding day, those qualities were evident in every interaction. Andrew carried a steady presence that put everyone around him at ease, while Allie’s warmth and kindness seemed to draw people in wherever she went.

A Surprise Proposal in Key West

One of our favorite parts of getting to know our couples is hearing how they became engaged, and Andrew’s proposal story was unforgettable.

While visiting the Key West Butterfly Garden, Andrew secretly arranged for a photographer to meet them there. As they walked through the gardens, Allie noticed Andrew seemed a little nervous and asked if he was okay. He brushed it off by blaming the heat and the crowds.

When they arrived at a gazebo, Andrew asked a young woman nearby if she would take their picture. What Allie didn’t realize was that the woman was actually the photographer he had hired to capture the proposal.

Andrew set down his backpack, which was carrying a ring box far too large to fit in his pocket, pulled out the ring, got down on one knee, and asked Allison Brooke Pease to marry him.

Her answer was immediate and enthusiastic.

“Of course, yes!”

It’s safe to say the proposal was a success.

Why North Carolina Is So Special To Them

Their wedding day reflected so much of who they are as a couple. Their steel blue and yellow color palette beautifully complemented the coastal scenery surrounding their celebration.

North Carolina holds special meaning for them, not only because of their shared love of the beach but also because Andrew was once stationed at Camp Lejeune. The state has become woven into their story, making it the perfect place to begin this new chapter together.

Allie loves cozy blankets, creature comforts, spending time outdoors, bird watching, visiting national parks, and playing disc golf with Andrew. Andrew loves endurance races, lifting weights, cooking, spending time in nature, and challenging himself physically and mentally.
