Allyson and Zachary’s love story is one built on time, growth, and deep roots. They met at just 15 years old and began dating at 16, growing up side by side through college, graduation, travel, and even purchasing their first home together. As Allyson puts it, “It was a long time coming for this engagement.”

Not every trend belongs in print.

Some photograph beautifully but don’t translate in real life.

Some feel everywhere, but won’t age well.

We’re starting to share more of the why behind our editorial decisions very soon.

What you see on the feed is only part of the story.

Behind every page of NOW Weddings are conversations, edits, trend debates, vendor insights, and decisions that never make it online.

We’re creating a space to share that side of the magazine, the expert lens, the behind‑the‑scenes, and the things couples (and vendors) actually want to know.

More soon. 🤍
