Charlotte Edsall & Stephen Storment June 8, 2019
Stephen and I met at school when we were 13 and, after a couple of years of friendship, started dating. I was pretty insistent that I didn’t want to get engaged until we were at least 20. I think we’d have been married the moment we were both 18 had he gotten his way! After dating for five years, in 2017, we took a trip to the charming town of Eureka Springs where he surprised me with the South Penthouse Suite of the historic Crescent Hotel. It was there, overlooking the incredible green expanse of the Ozark mountains, that he proposed to me. The next couple of years leading up to our big day we made a lot of plans for our shared future, and decided upon a wedding that would allow us to celebrate the part of our lives that we’re leaving and entering into the next stage as a married couple.

I grew up in England until I was ten years old, so a lot of invites for the day traveled overseas to family and friends. It was important to me and my family that my loved ones from “across the pond” be included, and we were so pleased when so many of them were able to travel to Arkansas to be with us. English culture was well represented: classic English summertime cocktails kicked off the festivities, and we chose to theme our reception around Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”.
We loved the pastoral setting and all the greenery at Barn at the Springs, and the outdoor isle and large reception space were perfect for creating our vision. Our amazing planner, caterer and florist did an incredible job of putting together a woodsy, fantastical, faery feast. Rare for an Arkansas wedding, all the food we served was completely vegan, from appetizers to desserts! It turned out to be a lot easier than we imagined and the food was well received by everyone — even the born and raised southerners who love their BBQ!
We are so grateful to all the people who came together and contributed to making our day as amazing as it could be. It was a beautiful ceremony and the reception was one great party. People danced the night away under the twinkling fairy-lights, dressed in the sparkly wings and flower crowns we’d provided as photo props. The day was a blur of love and light, and it was the perfect way to start a marriage to the love of my life.
