Rain, Rain, On Your Wedding Day!

There's a superstition that says rain on your wedding day is to be considered "good luck".  Of course, our brides often hope for a nice day and often check the weather reports for days before the BIG DAY praying for sunny skies. 

Our advice: Things happen! Make the best of it with some great photos.

And don't forget the flower girls and ring bearers!  How cute??

Inspiration: Napa Valley in the Carolinas!!

Napa Valley inspired outdoor wedding and ceremony. Casual and relaxed atmosphere, however, bride's style and class was not diminished. White sparkling wine, lemon drop martinis serve as the couple's signature beverage. The bride carried yellow orchids to add a pop of color to her celery and cream decor.

 

Tribute to Mother Nature!!

Today is Earth Day!!!   I love outdoor weddings because mother nature provides a beautiful backdrop that many indoor facilities cannot replicate.  The sounds of birds chirping and light breezes provide a sense of peace and heavenly charm to seal the beginning of couple's new life together.  Cautious thought should go into the space and season in order to avoid preventative disasters. But added touches to the details--  food and beverage selections, menu cards, programs, attire and flowers-- take simple outdoor weddings from "blah" to "BAM". For Earth Day, we were inspired to put together an outdoor wedding incorporating fun and relaxed hues of cucumber and melon. What a better way to pay tribute to "Mother Earth" than to bring together the love of your life and the love of nature!!!!
