The great wedding ceremony
American TV, film, and theater actor Chris Chalk married his sweetheart actress Kimberley Dalton Mitchell on 22nd April 2017 in a grand romantic outdoor ceremony held at Chris Chalk’s hometown Asheville, North Carolina. The main function took place at North Carolina’s Arboretum.
Alano Miller and DeWanda Wise introduced Chris Chalk and Kimberley Dalton Mitchell to each other. They got engaged in September 2016.
Alano Miller as Chris Chalk’s best man while DeWanda Wise served as the maid of honor for Kimberley Dalton Mitchell at the wedding. Chris and Kimberley exchanged vows in front of 135 guests which included their family members and close friends.
The groom wore black pants, a white suit Indochino jacket with a white bow tie, and a white button-down shirt. The bride opted for a white lace wedding gown of Designer Loft Bridal make and adorned Jennifer Behr circlets in her hair. Both looked stunning and happy.
The wedding transport and the reception
The Grand Bohemian Hotel on Boston Way in Biltmore Village, Asheville, served as the venue for the wedding reception.
This Tudor-inspired hotel boasts of exceptional event managers who can provide a ‘fairy-tale’ wedding. The guests were taken to the hotel in traditional yellow-colored school buses.
Mitchell said:
“We didn’t want people driving up the mountain after drinking Theopholis Vineyards champagne at the ceremony.”
Chris Chalk justified the choice of school buses, saying:
“I think there’s something about a school bus that immediately humbles you. It’s fun,”
For the wedding, the guests were requested to wear and look at their sexiest. The actual instruction went as follows:
“Dress how you would dress if you knew you were going to make out with somebody that night,'”
Mitchell had to dial back a few guests to communicate to them the new instructions.

“We told our DJ, ‘Pretend you’re DJ-ing for the club. That’s what we want,'” Chalk shared. “Just trying to throw the ultimate dance party.”
The dinner feast comprised the best of southern dishes such as shrimp and grits, duck confit, salmon, steak, and a waffle and bacon bar, along with other mouth-watering delicious treats. The wedding was a fun-filled one and the guests seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves.
They all carried home sweet memories of the great day! Chris Chalk took to Twitter to express his gratitude to Alano Miller and DeWanda Wise for their support in bringing the two ‘love-birds’ together.
