Miranda Miller + Javin Bradley

Javin Bradley’s best friend was dating Miranda Miller’s best friend. That’s how Javin and Miranda met and started dating. The best friends tied the knot, and Miranda and Javin would soon follow suit. The future Mrs. Bradley suspected that Javin would propose in Boone, one of their favorite places to visit. But Javin switched up the plans to try to keep his bride on her toes.

“While we were in Wilmington, we went to the beautiful Airlie Gardens where he proposed to me in front of a huge oak tree,” Miranda says. “It was such a sweet moment, and Wilmington will always hold a special place in our hearts.”

One year after their engagement, the couple exchanged vows on Nov. 23, 2024, in Pinehurst’s Fair Barn. After saying, “I do,” Miranda changed into a reception dress altered from her mom’s wedding dress. Miranda’s grandmother turned leftover fabric into the tablecloth for the Bradleys’ sweetheart table. “I look back on my wedding day with so much joy and admiration,” Miranda says.
