An elegant springtime wedding at the historic Grove Park Inn in Asheville, North Carolina. What didn’t we love about this couple? Seriously. She is a gorgeous, generous and easy-going. He is funny, gracious and handsome. Both are from Texas, talk about a southern power couple!
We had a mad-house season this year guys! Which is why the blog has been silent for so long…cue tail between my legs, I’m sorry puppy eyes. I figured what better way to beg your forgiveness then to show you why we’ve been so busy. This year we have seen a big increase in clients booking us for wedding planning AND full wedding design in Asheville and the surrounding areas. We love it when we get to work this way! A wedding is really a team effort, so when you have the luxury of design and planning working from the same office, it streamlines the whole process. Not to mention it is fantastic when it’s all hands on deck and we all get to be there on wedding day!
Christina and Garnett were our first full planning and design clients this year, they kicked off our season with a beautiful Grove Park Inn wedding in April. The view (as always) was spectacular ,the guests partied their butts off, and it didn’t rain, even though it threatened to. It was an incredible wedding, absolutely gorgeous, and we’re sorry that Christina and Garnett don’t live in Asheville so we can make excuses to bump into them and hang out.
Here are some of our favorite pictures from the day!
A first look isn’t for every couple, but it’s a lovely moment before the ceremony when the bride and groom can be alone and have a private moment together before the wedding whirlwind starts, and it’s a great opportunity for some really touching pictures – I mean look at these!
Oh you two just pull at our heart strings!
The ceremony was held on the Mountain View Terrace (you don’t have to be a genius to know how it got its name) I don’t know if there is a more perfect venue view of the Asheville mountains.
Christina and Garnett danced to “Thinking Out Loud” by Ed Sheeran for their first dance. Again, does anyone need a tissue?
It was a truly elegant affair, we’ll be following this post up with one that just focuses on the design of the day. It was so magnificent we thought it deserved it’s own write up. Here’s a sneak peak for what’s in store!
Christina and Garnett: We were absolutely honored to get to be a part of your day. From the very first meeting until the very last sparkler you were so generous with your laughter, kindness and gratitude. You know where to find us if you ever want to come hang out!
xoxo
