Melissa and Bryan are such a beautiful couple.  I adored their style and attention to detail, and they chose such an amazing time of year to get married…the fall!  Their wedding took place at the historic Basilica of St. Lawrence, in downtown Asheville, NC.  Following the wedding, guests traveled to the Biltmore Estate for a sit-down dinner  and dancing at the Lioncrest.  Every detail of this wedding was so beautiful, and Woodward + Rick were the perfect photographers to have around!  Thank you to Brian and Gry for supplying me with so many photographs to show!

Bryan was on his college rowing team, as were most of his friends…thought this was a fun picture.

I think this is such an amazing picture of Melissa..she is gorgeous!

Thank you to The Bloom Room for the exquisite floral!

Stacey and Bryan were married at the Biltmore Estate at the enchanting Deerpark.  The ceremony took place in the courtyard, surrounded by their family friends. After a plated meal their guests danced the night away under the stars.  It was a beautiful evening, and I know they were so happy to finally tie the knot!  Thank you to the always amazing Woodward + Rick for an exquisite job capturing this special event!

The Flower Gallery staff did a great job with the floral design!

Stacey has a beautiful smile…

All the tables were named after their favorite wines…

I love this first dance shot…

Stacey had personalized shot glasses made in memory of her dad.  Stacey gave a heartfelt toast to her father, and all of her guests joined in.

Thank you to Stacey and Bryan for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day!

I am thrilled to be working with Lauren, Chad and their families on their upcoming wedding in September.  The wedding ceremony and reception will be taking place at the Lioncrest on the Biltmore Estate.  It is going to be one amazing event, and I can’t wait!!  This couple, as you will see, is GORGEOUS!  Fortunately, they are beautiful in the inside too!    Woodward + Rick were kind enough to share with me some of Lauren and Chad’s engagement pictures so I could share them with my blog readers.  Although Woodward +Rick are some of the best in the business, they still couldn’t have taken a bad picture of these two even if they tried! 

Marcy and Jason were married on October 31, 2009 at the Cliffs Glassy Chapel.  It was a foggy day, but as soon as Marcy stepped out of her limo the sun broke through, and it was breathtaking.  The views from the Glassy Chapel are unmatched.  After the ceremony, the guests made their way to the Cliffs Glassy Clubhouse.  Stacey, with The Bloom Room, did another brilliant job with the decor, and there were splashes of bright fall colors everywhere.  It was beautiful!  So happy that Marcy and Jason had Brian and Gry, with Woodward + Rick, to capture their event.   Absolutely fantastic photographers with such a great eye for the perfect shot.

What a lovely couple Marcy and Jason are, and I was honored to work with them.  Thank you, Marcy and Jason!  I am so happy for the two of you.

Yvette and Lou were married on a gorgeous summer day at the Biltmore Estate.  The whole weekend was filled with activities on the Estate for their guests…a Thursday night dinner at the Riverbend Barn, a Friday night dinner at the Conservatory, and then the wedding and reception on Saturday.  The ceremony was held on the front lawn of the Biltmore House, followed by a dinner reception in the Italian Gardens.  It was an amazing weekend for all!!  I absolutely adored this couple, as they were so genuinely sweet and tenderhearted.  You could see in their eyes and the way the cherished each other, that they were totally meant to be husband and wife.  You can read more about this couple at this link: Yvette and Lou

Liz, with The Purple Iris, blew me away with the flowers!

Yvette and her mom (above) own Mira Couture in Chicago.  So they designed the bridesmaids dress, the mother-of-bride dress, and Yvette’s wedding dress…so stunning!

Dana, with A Fine Line, is truly the best calligrapher…look at her amazing work!  Flawless!

Yvette and Lou surprised their guests with a spectacular display of fireworks!

A few weeks ago, I posted some pictures from Kathleen and Brian’s wedding at the Cliffs Glassy Chapel and reception at the Wyche Pavilion.   Woodward + Rick put together a beautiful slide show of more pictures from this wedding, and I wanted to share these with you!  Click on the picture below…

In July, Kathleen and Brian were married in the Cliffs Glassy Chapel with amazing views of both North Carolina and South Carolina.  If you have never seen this chapel, you have got to go check it out!  The reception was at the Wyche Pavilion, in the very hip city of Greenville, South Carolina.  Kathleen and Brian were so great to work with.  They definitely knew what they wanted in regards to their style and vision, and it was so much fun bringing it together for them!  Woodward + Rick are some of the best photographers around, and I was so happy to have them capture this event.  Thank you for the pictures, Brian and Gry!

The Bloom Room’s floral design was gorgeous and perfect!

They named each table after different shades of blue…fun!
