I am so thankful!

God has blessed my life so much, and I am so thankful to Him...for His grace, His love, and His salvation. I wanted to write to all of you...my beautiful brides, supportive friends, amazing family, and my loyal blog readers.....HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!! I love you all!

I want to say a special thank you to my husband, Jonathan. You are my best friend, my biggest fan, and I love you more than life. Thank you, Corey and Amber for taking these photos of us...

Leslie and Chip

On August 23rd, Leslie and Chip had a gorgeous ceremony at the Cliffs Glassy Chapel followed by a reception at the Cliffs Valley Clubhouse. I think I have said this before, but the Cliffs chapel is one of the prettiest chapels I have ever seen. It sits on the tip top of the Cliffs Glassy property, and the views are endless! Leslie and Chip were like Barbie and Ken...so adorable together! Here are a few of their engagement and wedding pictures by Tracy Kimball Photography. Thank you, Tracy!

At the rehearsal!

Leslie was in dental school, so they gave out dental floss to the guests! :) Love it!

The guys got golf tees!

Barbie and Tom

On October 25th, Barbie and Tom were married on the Tennis Lawn at the Biltmore Estate. This lovely couple has such a sweet story of how they met. Their relationship began over the phone after their mutual friends told them they would be perfect together. After several weeks, they decided to meet on a 'blind' date. She flew up to meet him, and when he saw her for the first time he couldn't believe how beautiful she was. After a romantic weekend, they fell in love and the rest is history! I am so happy for them, and I loved every second I spent working with them on their wedding! After the ceremony, their guests moved to the Library Terrace for cocktails, and then enjoyed a plated dinner in the Italian Gardens. To top it off, Tom surprised Barbie with a firework display that brought her to tears and left their guests in awe. It was a spectacular evening! I had the pleasure of working with PEAK Definition for the first time who filmed and photographed the evening. Such a talented group of artists...it was so much fun getting to know them and getting to share their work with you all! Also, thank you to The Flower Gallery for their gorgeous floral design!

Barbie is SO gorgeous!

Love the ice bar by Masterpiece Ice!

Barbie with her mom...I thought her mom's dress was amazing!

I think this is such a sweet picture of Barbie and her dad...

I think Tom was pleased with his firework surprise!

Melissa and Alex

I just received the trailer from Four Seasons Films of Melissa and Alex's wedding, and I just have to share it with you! Melissa and Alex were married at the Biltmore Estate in October...a gorgeous time of the year here in Asheville. Their ceremony took place on the South Terrace, right next to the mansion, and their reception was held at the Lioncrest. Pictures will follow soon, but right now, enjoy this fantastic trailer...

Delain and Chris were married on October 4th in Cashiers at one of my favorite locations for a wedding, Trillium. I had such a great time getting to know Delain's mom, Connie, and working with her and Delain to pull this wedding together. I love Delain's taste and style...she has a great eye for design, and it was fun to see all the details weave together to make such a memorable event for her guests.
I am thrilled to share with you the incredible artistry of photographer, Parker Pfister. He is phenomenal at what he does, and his pictures are truly considered fine art. It is such a privilege to work with him. Enjoy....

Floral design by Sweet Bouquets...

I adore this picture...Delain is soooo gorgeous. I love the shoes (I have a slight obsession with good shoes)! Delain and her dad arrived at the ceremony in a vintage white firetruck. Love it....

Love this cake by The Bake Shoppe!

Thank you to Tere, who made sure everything run smoothly on the wedding day!
