Charlotte City Club Wedding

Elegance, class, and sophistication all featured on the top floor overlooking the city of Charlotte, North Carolina. From the floor to ceiling windows, to the southern furnishings, this Southern wedding has us swooning for days. We may live in Southern California, but we do love ourselves a Southern wedding. This one is no exception. We love all the details from the stunning hanging chandelier, the grand staircase made for a bride’s entrance, the breathtaking views of the city, and all the Southern flair featured throughout the venue. The couple? Well, they are just so darn cute with their first look photos, and the love that is so obvisous.  Of course with Six Hearts Photography on hand to capture all the romantic and beautiful details of this wedding, we knew this was going to be one for the books. Enjoy a bit of the South today with this super pretty wedding!

From Six Hearts Photography

Vanja and Brandon had their ceremony in the Charlotte City Club ballroom with high ceilings and windows for walls with a view of the city.Vanja wore a princess crown, her hair in curls, and a dress fit for a queen. With an intimate number of guests, their day was all about their family and close friends oriented with love everywhere.  Bridesmaids wore different color pastel dresses, pink, purple, blush, etc.  Her bouquet was full of broaches and probably the heaviest I’ve ever held – entirely gorgeous. They had a band instead of a Dj and spent most of their reception talking to close ones at their tables. It was such a wonderful day being part of their wedding day capturing all the moments!

From Southern Jewel Photography

Acquiring his doctorate at the University of South Carolina brought Bobby to South Carolina from his hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana. Bobby and Leah met on St. Patrick’s Day 2012 in downtown Greenville, SC. They enjoy vacationing in the low country andhave an affinity for the coast. Therefore, Charleston seemed like the perfect location for their nuptials. While Bobby is originally from Indianapolis, IN, both bride and groom had a large portion of the family and friends coming from out of town including: Indianapis, IN, Tuscan, AZ and Cleveland, OH. They wanted a “destination wedding” feel and chose Memorial Day weekend so guests could enjoy the many riches and culture that Charleston and the Low Country has to offer. For many, this was their first trip to South Carolina! The day began with the boys relaxing at Old South Barber Spa with an old-fashioned blade shave and hot towel facial. The ladies enjoyed mimosa’s in their bridal suite at The Residence Inn Riverview while having their hair styled and makeup applied. The ceremony began at 2 o’clock in the afternoon, followed by pictures down the road on the fisherman dock at James Island County Park. The reception followed at 6 pm starting with cocktails and southern passed hors d’oeuvres (petite crab cakes with remoulade sauce, pimento cheese fried green tomato wedges, and fried chicken & waffle sliders), followed by a buffet style dinner. After their introduction, the bride and groom danced to Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” and danced the night away to music provided by the DJ, Mr. Bobby Clair of The Carolina Girl Yacht. The end of the night finished with a bubble exit as the bride and groom left for their stay at the Francis Marion Hotel on King Street. They took an immediate, small honeymoon to Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC followed by a weeklong honeymoon in La Jolla, Los Angeles, Laguna Beach, and Santa Barbara, CA in late October. Bobby, an alumni of Indiana University and the University of South Carolina, is a home health physical therapist with Gentiva in Union, SC and has a passion for golf (see the golf tee boutonnieres). Leah, who has live in South Carolina since the age of 3, is a graduate of the University of South Carolina and is a microbiology technician at Bausch + Lomb in Greenville, SC. She enjoys baking, crafting, photography, and anything nautical (hence their nautical themed wedding). Together, they both share a love for southern cuisine and craft beer. With help from Terrapin Brewery, they featured a crafted “wedding ale” made specifically for our special event as a wedding favor to their guests! Bobby and Leah currently reside in Simpsonville, South Carolina with their cat, Nougat.

Georgia Barn Wedding

I will always be a fan of the barn wedding. I am no country girl, but I love myself a barn wedding. This wedding’s venue is not the only detail I have fallen in love with. This couple is absolutely adorable! I can not handle how pretty the bride’s lace gown is, and those cowboy boots? Oh my goodness, just perfect compliment to the whole bridal look. I can not forget the groom, who is looking dapper in his tan blazer, dark jeans, and cowboy boots. Together, these two love birds are a perfect match. Oh, and I can not forget about that cookie cake. Its so cute! Monday never looked so pretty, and the photographs by Brandy Angel Photography are beautiful.

From the bride…

We met on a plane…I was his flight attendant, he was headed to Texas to see some friends. Little did he know that’d be the trip of his lifetime! He tried to get my attention a few times, and I made casual conversation but was more focused on working. Finally when I had a break, I went to the back of the plane to sit down. He asked me to sit down and watch Duck Dynasty with him. So, I did, and that was it! 20 minutes later we were both smitten, and 2 weeks later he took me out on our first date. We just clicked and knew right off the bat this was “it”. 8 months later he proposed and 6 months after that we got married! What a wonderful whirlwind the past year & a half has been.

Our wedding was near Athens, Georgia in a cute barn. Antique Acres was the name of the venue. When planning our wedding we knew we needed to incorporate my favorite colors, our cowboy boots, and Seth’s beloved coca-cola! We added personal touches such as having cookie cakes because I have always preferred cookies to cake. Everything went together better than we could imagine and it turned out perfectly!

Intimate Outdoor Southern Wedding

Lace never gets old in my book. This pretty Southern wedding has all the lace that I love and more.  In addition to lace, this Southern bride  loves horses, and all things simple and Southern. This gorgeous couple share personal vows with their small guest count surrounded by lovely trees in a quaint  setting.  Then you have a photographer like Brandy Angel Photography who is there to capture all the lovely details. This wedding is just beautiful in every detail. I can go and on about this Southern wedding, but I think the stunning images speak for themselves. Enjoy!!

A few words from the bride…

The Love story:  We met through a mutual acquaintance in 2009. I was in a relationship at the time so we were just friends for a year before we started dating. We would bump into each other everywhere throughout that year and Matt would tell his buddies that, “one day that girls gonna be my girlfriend.” So after numerous attempts of him asking me out and getting turned down he deleted my number from his phone. At the end of that year, when I became single again, I thought about Matt and decided to reach out to him. His response was,”who is this again?” Haha I knew I probably deserved that for all the neglect I had given him. Our first date was that night, I asked him out to a new fine dining restaurant called Three Forks. I quickly realized how much we had in common and that he had spent four summers on the lake I grew up on in Alabama which is rare to find when you are living 7 hours away from home. He asked me to go out of town with him that weekend to his families place in Crystal River and that’s where we both fell completely in love! He made me swim with manatees which was a real treat for a small town Alabama girl like me. That weekend is when we decided we were Lobsters, and would be soulmates for life. We even ironically found a wooden sign that says “Lobsters” that is still to this day hanging in our kitchen. I knew he would be my husband one day.

The Proposal: He proposed on November 8, 2013. I was about to renew another years lease on my apartment even though I spent most of my time at his house. I came straight to his house from work that day with a hope that was crushed. I desperately wanted him to propose but I had accepted that it wasn’t going to happen. He asked me to come sit on the back porch with him and watch the sunset which we did often. It’s one of our favorite spots overlooking dutton island. I told him about my day and rambled on as usual. He was pacing around, couldn’t sit still which was also usual so I didn’t think anything of it. Then he said,” I have a surprise for you little Susie.” (It’s a nickname) long story. I responded,” Oh please tell me it’s a garage door opener!” Haha the garage door had been broken for quite some time. He found that amusing and went along with it. He said I was right and he was gonna go get the opener to show me. When he came back he told me to close my eyes and he got down on one knee. He told me to open my eyes and simply asked,”I want to watch sunsets with you for the rest of my life. Will you marry me?”

The Wedding: We wanted to be engaged for a while. We knew we weren’t going to do a big wedding and even talked about eloping. About four days shy of one year later we decided on a private family wedding. Very small and quant, 17 people including the bride and groom. It was perfect timing.

Alabama Gulf Coast Wedding

Its days like this, that I have to pinch myself as I think that I am dreaming all of this. Blogging about weddings and all the pretty details is so amazing and makes my heart go pitter patter. I just get so excited I cant help it! Today’s post is no exception when it comes to pretty details. It may be winter, but my heart is itching for some summer love. Here at BHL headquarters, it is a cold, rainy day, and today we are warming up with this gorgeous beachside wedding. I do not know what detail I love more, the lovely mint colors, the ice cream bar, the charming ceremony location, or the beautiful flowers. Do I have to choose?  Man, sometimes its hard to choose my favorite wedding detail. I will just not choose, because you know what, I love ALL of them. Yep, I really do. I think I am going to go ahead and just say I am obsessed with all the details.   To top it off, you have Dragonfly Photography on hand to capture all the details. Before you head out for the weekend, take a moment to browse this Southern Gulf Coast wedding and go back to summer. Summer loving on a winter day is the best right? We think so! Enjoy!

From Dragonfly Photography

Mollie and Corey are two childhood friends who grew into sweethearts.   They have a love of the water so it was only fitting that these two Southerners wed on Alabama’s beautiful Gulf Coast in Orange Beach, Alabama .  Vintage doors,  flower boxes filled with pinks, whites, and mint, an ice cream bar, homemade strawberry shortcake, and fresh preserves an set on the the water.  It was one to remember!

From Jarrett Hucks Photography...

Sydney, a fashion merchandiser and quite the creative person, took it upon herself to design and decorate all things surrounding the atmosphere of her ceremony and reception. Most everything was handcrafted or up-cycled for a very unique wedding experience. One of my favorite things that she had done herself, was an old Globe that she had repainted depicting different things in New York City where they were taking their honeymoon. The train depot itself has a very rustic vibe with plenty of elegance still to be had. Many of the original elements are still in playing at the train depot including the loading doors and ticket station. With hardwood floors and brick walls, it makes for a very dark interior without lighting, but the rafters being covered in twinkle lights helps create a very dreamy atmosphere without the heavily inflated prices of many venues with this type of character.

From Dragonfly Photography...

These two wonderful souls have been best friends since high school.   When I asked Jill if she was getting excited about her wedding this was her response, “I just can’t believe that I’m really fixing to marry my best friend from high school, the guy I use to wish I could marry every time I blew out my birthday candle for 10+ years, and most importantly a guy who is like my pawpaw. Out of my grandparents 50 yrs of marriage my pawpaw never said one negative thing to my nanny nor did I ever see one single argument out of them. Johnny and June didn’t have a thing compared to them:)  I always dreamed of a marriage like theirs and I’m fixing to have that. Like for real.  I’m just so excited and can’t believe I’m this lucky.”

These two Southerners had a vision of having a rustic barn wedding.  What better place to have this wonderful affair than the old family barn.  After months of cleaning and moving everything out of the barn, everything was set and ready for these two to commit themselves to one another in front of their closest family and friends.  It was a perfect day.

TLC’s Four Weddings Winning Bride: June 13th

Good morning weekenders!  What a gorgeous day it is here at BHL. What is going on outside, well, I will enjoy that a bit later, but for now,  we have the winner of TLC’s “Four Weddings” from this week’s episode. A wonderful Saturday indeed.  The winning bride from Thursday’s episode is Megan! Congrats to this bride and her beautifully planned Southern wedding.  Her vintage and lace wedding scored her a total of 88 points out of 120 points. Here is the breakdown.

Venue: 26 points
Dress:  15 points
Experience: 21points
Food: 26 points

The other three brides really liked the venue and food the best, as she scored the highest in these two categories. The venue was at an old Plantation. Perfect for her vintage Southern wedding. The ceremony took place outside in a gorgeous setting.  All the beautiful details of the old world charm was evident in this venue.  I really loved this venue as well. The ceremony space set outside, and the stunning tent for the outside reception was perfect for this Southern bride. Just lovely.

The food. Well since I can not account for the food, since I was not there to taste it, but from the score of the other brides, it seems that her food was a hit. Good tasting food is such an important element of a wedding. It can it can either leave guests happy and satisfied, or unhappy and starving. So great job Megan for providing something tasty and delicious for your guests to enjoy at your wedding.

Congrats to Megan for winning an all expenses paid honeymoon. After all the planning of her vintage and Southern wedding, together with her husband, she is ready to pack her bags, and journey to a place of relaxation and luxury. Sounds like a great time. Enjoy and have a lovely time Megan, you deserve it!
