Caroline & James
April 17, 2021
Of all the dating apps out there, Coffee Meets Bagel happens to be the one that brought Caroline and James together. Just a year after their first date, James invited Caroline to dinner downtown, but instead surprised her with his signature, scratch-made eggplant parmesan at his apartment. The proposal was intimate and private, followed by a celebration the next day with both of their families. As a violin and cello duo played Bach’s cantata Wachet auf, Caroline walked down the aisle of Mitchell Road Presbyterian Church in a gown from The Poinsett Bride and an heirloom headpiece previously worn by her mother and grandmother. The reception heralded a newly opened post-COVID world, where guests enjoyed a seated dinner at The L and a party afterward fueled by DJ Jumping’ Jukebox. The couple lives in Greenville, where Caroline works as a physician and James is an engineer.
