Knotz Weddings:
Kayla Brianna & NFL Star Terrell Edmunds' Fairytale "I Do" at the Biltmore Estate
Singer Kayla Brianna and NFL star Terrell Edmunds went all in on the fairytale theme for their wedding, exchanging vows at the historic Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. A venue so grand it practically doubles as a castle. Add in a horse-and-carriage entrance, and you've got one of the most enchanting real weddings we've come across this year.
We were honored to design a velvet and satin black bat-wing bowtie for Terrell and custom signature all-white paisley bowties with a hint of black at the knot.
The Venue: A Castle-Worthy Backdrop
Kayla knew from the start that she wanted a wedding that felt larger than life, and the Biltmore Estate delivered. Beyond its sweeping architecture and old-world romance, the venue held personal meaning for the couple thanks to their North Carolina roots. It set the stage perfectly for their wedding theme, built around the playful tagline "Happily Ever Edmunds."
The Moments That Mattered Most
For Kayla, the day was defined by the sheer number of loved ones who showed up to celebrate, and by watching a year's worth of planning finally come together. Live band Sol and the Gang kept the energy high all night, and Kayla admits there was a moment where it all hit her: she was actually married.
For Terrell, beyond watching his bride arrive in style, the standout moment was sharing a mother-son dance a reminder that even the grandest weddings are built on the smallest, most personal touches.
Looking Ahead
As newlyweds, the couple is looking forward to building their own traditions and growing together into the next chapter of their story.
Why We Love This Wedding
Kayla and Terrell's celebration is a beautiful example of how a couple can go big on theme and setting without losing sight of what actually matters: family, connection, and genuine joy. If you're dreaming of a fairytale wedding of your own, this one's full of inspiration — from grand entrances to heartfelt dances.
