Bernice & Kevin in Atlanta, GA

Bernice met Kevin because she saw him as her savior at an Emory party. I was being hit on by a frat boy and trying to figure out a way to escape, she recalls. Feigning a desire to learn some of Kevin's moves, I invited myself to dance with him. Ten years later, dancing continued to play a central role when Bernice and Kevin finally wed.

Once she and Kevin started considering spots near where they had first met, everything began to come together. The ceremony and reception were soon planned for the Houston Mill House, which is a large wooded estate surrounded by gardens.
