Cici & Will’s Wedding: A Real-Life Fairytale Inspired by The Princess Bride

“As You Wish” A Love Story for the Ages

A Wedding Like No Other: Will & Cici’s Princess Bride Ceremony in the Appalachian Mountains

Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Will and Cici’s wedding was the kind of celebration that only a close-knit mountain community can create—full of heart, laughter, and a touch of theatrical magic.

They began their wedding day with an intimate ceremony, exchanging vows in a quiet, meaningful moment surrounded by their closest family and friends. But as the sun set over the Appalachian foothills, the real spectacle began. With no limit on the guest count, their Princess Bride-themed ceremony welcomed their entire dance community and beyond, making it feel as if the whole town had gathered to celebrate.

And that’s when the unexpected happened.

A Wedding That Felt Like Live Theatre

As the officiant, channeling the beloved Princess Bride clergyman, launched into the famous “Mawwage” speech, voices from the crowd suddenly chimed in. Guests—who were secretly in on the act—interrupted, corrected, and played along, turning the ceremony into an immersive experience. No one knew what would happen next, and that spontaneity made it all the more unforgettable. It was the longest wedding introduction line ever, ““Mawwage. Mawwage is what bwings us together today.” Not a dry eye in the hall.

Laughter and cheers rippled through the audience as the ceremony became a moment of shared joy, something between a wedding and a theatrical performance. It wasn’t just a celebration of Will and Cici’s love—it was a celebration of community, of storytelling, of the magic that happens when people come together.

A Perfect Small-Town Wedding in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Weddings in small mountain towns like Blue Ridge, GA, Murphy, NC, and Copperhill, TN, have a special kind of magic. There’s a warmth that comes with a close-knit community, a breathtaking backdrop of rolling mountains, and an atmosphere that makes every moment feel more personal. Whether it’s a lakeside ceremony, a rustic barn wedding, or a whimsical celebration in the woods, the Appalachian Mountains are an ideal setting for couples looking for something unique.

Will and Cici’s wedding embodied everything beautiful about weddings in the Blue Ridge area—joy, creativity, and the kind of togetherness that only happens in small towns. Their Princess Bride ceremony was not just a moment in time but an experience that will live on in the memories of everyone who was lucky enough to be there.
