Congrats goes out to movie producer and friend the site Will Packer! Last night in an intimate ceremony, he married longtime girlfriend Heather Hayslett. The ceremony took place at their home in Atlanta! They live in Sandy Springs so it was a perfect place to gather close friends and family for the surprise ceremony. Supposedly they had a house- warming party and thats when everyone was shocked to learn that a wedding would ensue lol, how fun!
The loving couple along with about 50 guest filled the backyard with an intimate dinner, brief tour of the home and was served champagne and wine and all the trimmings. Then the guests were asked to take their seats at pretty tables outdoors. Will Packer’s son Dominque(20) was his best man, along with his bride’s son Zion(13) who walked Heather down the aisle. Packers two daughters Maya(11), Nija(15) were the flower girls. Pastor Charles Jenkins officiated the wedding who is a long childhood friend of Will.
According to Essence.com the couple wrote their own vows and Will lost it when he saw his bride walk down the aisle, awh how beautiful! R&B Crooner Anthony Hamilton serenaded the bride as she sashayed down the walkway to Teddy Pendagrass’ song, “You’re The Latest, Greatest Inspiration”. Yes mam!
Will wore a Miguel Wilson Collection black & gold tux and we all know that he is a proud member of Alpha Phi Alpha, so that was a given lol. Heather wore a champagne colored satin Eve of Milady silver beaded overlay gown. Alright now!
The couple met on a boat ride at Essence Festival back in 2009 and have been inseparable ever since. Will is my boy and always in good spirits when I see him out and I love how Heather is so fashionable too. I have enjoyed shooting them both over the years. Congrats to the lovely couple! xoxo
