A chance meeting on social media was an unexpected start, but one year later, Robbie and Drew were engaged at the exact spot where they had their first date—Basil in Mt. Pleasant. As it was April Fool’s Day, Robbie first had to confirm that it was not an elaborate prank. The wedding was held at the couple’s home, on the patio in their lush courtyard. The intimate gathering included Robbie’s four children, Drew’s two children, and pastor Greg Dover of Augusta Heights Baptist Church.
The grooms, who exchanged rings designed by llyn and Sydney Strong, wore Ralph Lauren blazers and pink shirts to coordinate with the girls’ dresses. Drew,a freelance graphic artist, selected all of the flowers and also designed bouquets and boutonnieres. Drew and Robbie, a realtor at Blackstream/ Christie’s International and an interior decorator, held a celebration several months later catered by Asada. Owners of Design Resource Gallery, the couple now resides in their new home in the Alta Vista neighborhood.
