it’s the wedding rewind y’all! we always love it when another planner recommends us to her friends… and it was because of sweet jenny cook {charlotte planner extraordinaire!} that we were able to work with sara and jonathon for their asheville wedding at the crest center!  we helped them plan and pull their look together… lots of lighting, clean colors, and a nod to their love of music.

we hope you enjoy!

so first, a few pics that brought us some inspiration…

ready to see how it all comes together?  we thought so…  we started by keeping it simple at the ceremony, which was offsite.

we ended up incorporating the wood/twig elements into the lighting… so the floral team placed large wooden twig balls hanging from the ceiling to bring in both elements, and adding in hanging candle trays from the ceiling.  yep.  you read that right.  the results gave us clean lines during the day, and a romantic fairy-like land at night. love.

we plan and we design all day long for some really fab clients… but when it comes to planning and designing for one of our own, it’s a different story!  we all know each other SO well, that the possibilities are truly endless.  so last year once we found out brittany was expecting a wee one, we knew we had a task in front of us.  she is so dang good at her designs… and of course we only wanted the best for her and for her to love it!

so abandoning the boring pastels {goodbye god-awful green}… we went with a crisp and clean black and white stripe. with of course gold sparkly linens.  because who doesn’t love gold sparkles?!? we do!  check out some of our favorite fab details below… enjoy!

the venue was the perfect place for us!

all of our food was themed around the pregnancy.  and the oreos + milk is probably my favorite!

we had to include the dad-to-be in the food! brownies for the road!

champagne for those of us that love it {yours truly}, and sparkling cider + lemonade for the mama to be…

so… we haven’t been all that great on the blog lately. i feel like we say that every year about this time… but truth is, we are producing some fab events for some lovely couples getting married!  so as we make our way through june.. bear with us, and know that the wait will be worth it when you see what our planning and design team have been up to!

in the meantime… we had to share this spring wedding from last year.  katie and jared are… how to say this, adorable.  just the sweetest people you could find.  and their love story? it’s even sweeter.  just imagine the whole guy meets girl in an airport, they fall in love, and get married.  and then have airplane snack food at the reception.  seriously? precious.

take a peek at some of our favorite detail shots by the oh-so talented, Mozingo Photography! and to see all the images from their day.. be sure to head on over to their blog!

could the chevron mixed with turquoise, coral, and orange be any cuter? we think not.

we just love our old edwards inn weddings! old edwards inn in highlands, nc is an amazingly beautiful venue for a wedding. the ceremony space is set in a manicured garden, complete with a gorgeous draped tent. the bridal house is a sweet little waiting space for the bride to emerge from, at the right moment of course. the reception barn and pavilion are grand spaces that even with their size create an inviting feeling. and when the weather is right, opening the glass walls creates a great inside outside flow. the farm and pavilion are blank slates that can be decorated in endless looks and every single one looks amazing!

lindsey + brendan chose early june for their nuptials and hired us (our girl brittany planned this one! read about her and our other highlands wedding planners!) to help plan their big day. lindsey and her mom anne had a great idea of how they wanted the wedding to look so it was just getting it to come to life. lindsey described her wedding as classic, bold and effervescent, not wanting it to be a stuffy affair caught up in pomp and circumstance but rather a reflection of their personalities and relationship. they wanted it to be timeless with elements of traditional but also still embody their style and be unique, memorable, and lively. they decided on a color palette of green, silver gray and white to play off the natural setting of the venue and added subtle touches to make it unique. during our planning process lindsey said “we want the guests to have fun, first and foremost. we want them to feel as if the event embodies our relationship and celebrates our marriage, but not be bombarded by décor and centerpieces and flowers. it should be a carefree evening where the guests don’t have to worry about anything but enjoying themselves.” and let me tell you, their guests had the night of their lives! the dance floor was full the entire night, lindsey + brendan even rocked it out with the band on stage!
