Melinda Moore + Chas Chapman

Melinda Moore and Chas Chapman are a couple of cool and laidback hair stylists, and their marriage proposal reflected that.

“Hey, you wanna get married?” Chas asked Melinda sometime near the end of 2022.

“Absolutely,” she replied.

A short five months later, on March 3, 2023, the couple tied the knot at Soirée on South, right near Chas’s salon, Create Studio, on South Street in Aberdeen.

For their big day’s theme, Melinda and Chas went without one and just included things they like.

“Our wedding was about us and our love for one another, so we just played off of that and let it inspire us,” Melinda says. That meant a free-flowing evening of blue-pointed heels, sunglasses, and guests wearing whatever clothes made them feel most beautiful, so they could have a great time.

“I honestly don’t think we would have changed anything,” Melinda says. “We had a small, private wedding with guests who meant a lot to us, and we had a great time celebrating.”
