Small Business Love-Up: Bridal Traditions
We’re celebrating and saluting small businesses during a time when they are suffering and waiting to reopen full force. Today, I want to shine the light on Bridal Traditions. Kelly Shumate, the owner of BT and beYOUtiful Boutique … oh how I love this girl. We have been friends for more than a decade and have memories to back up that time. Pixels even created her logo back in the day.
If you find yourself on a small, blue marble hurling through space, you should have a Kelly in your life. I photographed her bridal anniversary portraits, pictures of her with her sweet husband and pup for the holidays, and the Wilkes Wedding Expo for years.
Kelly is community-focused, a smart business woman, a good time Charlie and one of the hardest working women in the biz.
We’ve photographed the Wedding Expo for years including this previous one in 2020, but I have also had the fun and pleasure of accompanying Kelly and her team to Atlanta for prom and wedding markets and buying efforts over the years for her boutique. Watching her work, choose styles and chat with other vendors is the best.
Bridal Traditions just celebrated its 20th Anniversary. I couldn’t be more excited for her, more proud of her, or more happy to have her as one of my best friends. If you aren’t following her on Facebook or Instagram, I hope you will.

Small business love up: Anchor Coffee
Some day, perhaps, this bundle will pop into Anchor for “a cuppa.” For now, he’s a cute side-car at a place we adore.
As we celebrate small businesses during this government and socially sanctioned downtime, I would be remiss if I didn’t shine a light on Anchor Coffee. It’s a place we love filled with people we love.
Our family goes to church with owner Greg Brady and his family and we photographed them during their child’s dedication. It was a precious moment and we were honored to do it.
Anchor is a shop that we visit often for coffee or a beer and they have live music, too. Boy are we missing them during this quarantine time.
Like all businesses in the community, they’re serving as much as they can to stay in business and continuing to be enormous sources of love and light when we need it most.
Are there businesses that you love and miss? If you can, consider buying a gift certificate, ordering curbside or just calling to tell them “we miss you!!” God Bless Anchor and those we get to worship with, pray for and do life with. I hope you will support and follow Anchor Coffee if you’re a Wilkesboro local.
