Hurricanes & Weddings

I'll be honest ~ I completely forgot to take pictures of this wedding.... In my defense, Liz & Mike's wedding took place on October 27th, 2012 - the day that Hurricane Sandy rolled through the Outer Banks! Needless to say we had to go to Plan B so the sound front ceremony was moved to the veranda and the reception was moved to the Rees Jones Lounge. Everyone took the weather in stride and had such a blast. If rain on your wedding day brings good luck, then a hurricane must mean a marriage full of love, happiness, and nothing but the best and I certainly wish that for Liz & Mike! Although I didn't get a chance to take pictures on this slightly hectic wedding day, their photographer, Leeann Marie from their hometown of Pittsburgh, featured this special couple in a blog post a couple months back. Check it out here! One more thing about this wedding - in Pittsburgh tradition they had a cookie table (yes I know all about the cookie table!) and let me tell you it was the largest (and yummiest) spread of baked goods I have ever seen!

Happy Planning!
Ashley

Flashback to Fall Weddings

It's been way too long between posts again - and I truly apologize for that! I can honestly say this has been the busiest "off-season" I've ever had, which is only a foreshadowing of how busy this 2013 wedding season will be! This week's featured wedding is one of my all-time favorites - the decor was a really great combination of casual and fun and I just LOVED the table runners made by Shirley of Sugar Snap Events, plus the couple and all of their guests felt more like old friends than clients! Another fun thing about this wedding - they served a delicious fall specialty cocktail, Apple Champagne Punch, as their guests arrived for the ceremony! Such a fun day to be a part of!

I could post a bunch of my amateur photos (see example below) that do NOT do this wedding justice - or I can send you to Julie Dreelin's Blog Post featuring this FLAWLESS wedding! I'm going with the latter :) Enjoy Julie's photos HERE - how talented is she?!

Happy Planning!
