October 17th 2009 Double Wedding

At first the vendors doing this wedding at the Kilmarlic Club near the Outer Banks, NC were worried about logistics. Do the brides walk down the aisle at the same time, do they cut the cake at the same time? The question was asked, are they friends? Yes to all of them! This wedding photographed by Julie Dreelin and Lauren Cowart of Beach Productions ended up working out perfectly, thanks to their planner, Ocean Aisle Events's Julie Hume. She would say yes, the brides did put more pressure on the vendors having more food, more decorating, and more photography, but it did pay off. If Julie Hume can plan this event I would say she can plan anything!

Jessica and Ben- a do it yourself fashionista couple

Date: October 28th, 2009 | Category: Affordable Style, Best of the Best Wedding Houses, Do-it-Yourself, Fashion, Featured Weddings

This wedding took place in Duck, NC at one of our favorite wedding houses, the Saltaire House - although it is not on the ocean, the house is located perfectly between the ocean and the sound so that you can get both types of shots. At this wedding, the photographer, Julie Dreelin, took the bride and groom across the street from the house for some beautiful sunset shots before coming back to party.

Jessica knows style! Even during her toast her maid of honor said she thought Jennifer would marry a fashion model from tv. She chose Ben, a fashionable surfer instead, and what a couple they make! Jennifer went for the new style of "net" for her veil and accessorized her own boquet with a beaded belt she found- we loved it! This bride and groom belong in a fashion mag, wouldn't you say?

"It's all about the photos" Daniel touted to me when I first arrived at this wedding. Meghan had a smaller budget, went small in areas that weren't as meaningful and went big in places that were, like decorations by Rene Landry Style and Photography and photography by Julie Dreelin's Beach Productions. We love the background for the ceremony she put up that doubled as a back to a mini "photo" booth with chalk and board that they played with all night taking funny photos - Meghan's own idea of bringing boots and ballons to the beach made the entire beach session turn out like a fashion shoot!
