Mint Museum Wedding | Charlotte, NC | Mackenzie + Zach

Most of our weddings are in Asheville, NC, but we have had the opportunity to plan gorgeous events across the globe. It’s always lovely to have a change of scenery…even if it’s just to a different part of our state. Mackenzie and Zach hired us to plan their Mint Museum wedding in Charlotte, NC, and we loved bringing our fresh eyes to a new (to us!) space 🙂 We loved this wedding so much that we are splitting it into two posts. Today, we will share their wedding story. Coming soon, we will tell you all about their gorgeous design.
MacKenzie and Zach’s hometown of Charlotte is an energizing city, and these two feed of off that energy. It’s always wonderful to see a couple celebrate their love in a space that represents them so well, and we think that this Mint Museum wedding was a perfect celebration for this fun and extroverted couple.
MacKenzie and her crew spent their morning at The Ivey’s, a lovely boutique hotel not too far from the museum, while Zach’s crew got ready in the couple’s downtown home. Both spaces were perfect for getting cozy with your besties while getting ready.

The Ivey’s Hotel translates so beautifully in photographs. We love all of the texture and detail in this room!

this dress is absolute magic. so elegant, yet not stuffy. we are in love with this look.

Finishing touches done. One last drink…
And a deep breath…
We had rain in Charlotte that day. Lots of rain. But the lobby of The Ivey’s Hotel was lovely (and dry!), perfect for a First Look!

We love this bridal party look. Very pop art.
The Mint Museum was such a fun space to work with. We can’t wait to show you all the pretty details 🙂 The logistics of the space itself were interesting, and we had fun working with elevators and giant window screens and escalators. So many moving pieces, and it all came together so beautifully.

Perfection.


Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs.!


After the ceremony downstairs in the main space, we sent everyone upstairs for the party! Oh my goodness, we cannot wait to show you this gorgeous and FUN design!

MacKenzie and Zach are just so beautiful together!

Everything is a little more glamorous and dramatic at a Mint Museum wedding. Every moment can become a piece of modern art!

The evening wrapped up with a fantastic dance party.


And with the assistance of the amazing Ted, ShutterBooth rockstar and our dear friend, we passed out some rad glow sticks to end the night with a bit of extra flair.

MacKenzie and Zach’s beautiful Mint Museum wedding was one that we are super proud to have been a part of. Thanks so much to our amazing wedding team. We couldn’t have done it without you!

please be seated 🌿🪑🌿 a beautiful way to welcome your guests! ⁠
⁠
also, these things just do not line up on the first go 🤣 and the moss wall does not just stand up on its own [thank you @floressenceflowers!] there is math involved, a person on a chair, and someone telling said person on the chair if it is even, and so many push pins! and if it is raining, which it was, you have to make sure the paper doesn't get all damp and not lay right!⁠
we keep saying it, and we will say it again - details matter.⁠
⁠
thank you for the capture @rachelandnoahray with @floressenceflowers @lakeedenretreat @professionalparty!
A moment for the cake and the florals 🌸🍰🌸⁠ One thing we always hear - how can we reuse the flowers from the ceremony? if you have ground floral behind the chairs at ceremony, those can be moved during cocktail hour and placed before your guests enter the reception! bonus points if no one sees you do it ;) also... an arbor just c.a.n.n.o.t be moved in its entirety, so if repurposing is important to you, this is something to think about!⁠

shoutout to the team! @flatmountainfarm @floressenceflowers @eastcoastentertainment @dollboxproductions @professionalparty⁠
