Garden Themed Perfection

June 4th, 2011

Beach parties are a way of life here on the Outer Banks, that is why this wedding became so unique to us. Elizabethan Gardens/108 Budleigh sites in Manteo are often overlooked because they are not at the beach, but they are just as unique and gorgeous! Lindsey did it right by hiring the amazing Embellishers to make her Garden "theme" come to life with a modern flair full of detail and personality. The people and kids at this wedding were captured in the cutest ways, we have ubbers of funny photos of them, just a few are below. OK, and the cute, adorable little birdies adorning their last name initial on the front door to the reception all of the way to the sparkler exit, we loved capturing every last detail!

FROM THE BRIDE:

"Julie: I am speechless. These are so incredibly stunning...I had to close the door to my office so no one sees me tearing up at work.
It would be so hard to pick a favorite, but I am LOVING the picture of our flower girl and ring bearer and that look on my niece Sophia's face. And the detail shots...just WOW. They capture everything perfectly...basically what I imagined perfect wedding pictures would look like. Thank you sooo much. Cannot wait to share these. ~Lindsey"

From the Bride:

OK! WOW! SO I've been on the phone with my sister and we went over these photos over and over! YOU DELIVERED EVERYTHING I HAD HOPED FOR AND THEN SOME! You captured all the joy and fun and happiness and goofiness and seriousness and love that all these people have for one another, not just Glenn and I but the whole special group. It feels like this was how I wanted the pictures to turn out and you made it real! I cannot wait to see the rest, what a completely satisfying moment for GLenn and I!

I have to tell you how homemade this wedding was. I think you'll enjoy it. My husband to be did my hair, for his first time and got it perfectly. I honestly believe the deeper coloring made it photograph better and made my eyes pop bluer in the pics! It just worked! And you were right, the lighting was beautiful!

I called to order flowers a few months ago...the bill was going to be ridiculous...so I called Harris Teeter and asked if I could order flowers there and make my own. They let me! So...even though the other florist places were way cool, since I had done flowers in a past job, I couldn't overpay by a few thousand dollars....seriously, so I did them. They had dreamy flowers, really, for all the flowers and enuf leftover to fill the bathtub it cost less than the quotes I got for the bride bouquet alone. Truly! So we pooled our abilities, (Glenn and I made the pies, ironically he was a pastry chef in another life and could have made a fabulous wedding cake, he did both his sister's cakes, but we like pie better..) He tortured me with mock up wedding cakes to sample and pick from only to decide we liked fruit pies best! Glenn is a mad good cook, so he knew to ask the right questions for the caterers and they were FANTASTIC!

All in all it was a wedding with tons of personal touches throughout- and then adding the cast of characters these families unite, photo -op heaven.

Extremely satisfying, I'm just so pleased already I cannot tell you! I think they are so fun and so well done- they speak volumes for your talent and should be shared. I feel like the emotional happiness was captured- and everything came together to really make them extra special- mother nature included! Just exceptional. - All My Best, Heidi

Picking the right time of DAY for lighting on your wedding

August 6th, 2010

Matt and Rebecca

July 18th 2010-Frisco, NC

These two hit it on the mark with a gorgeous beach experience, perfect timing on the reception and dancing, AND sunset. We always suggest looking at sunset and planning the ceremony at least 2 hours before that in the summer. In the spring and fall up to 3 hours beforehand.
