Once you decide to tie the knot, the wheels begin to turn and the ideas begin to flow. You think back to every wedding that you have attended and everyone that you have seen in the movies or on t.v. You might already have your dream wedding in your mind. But now you have to see if you can make your dream come to life. We recently did a photo shoot at The Balcony on Dock in Wilmington, North Carolina which we hope will provide inspiration for your imagination. If you pay attention to details and think outside of the box, you can make your dreams come true.

For example, let’s look at the table decor. We showed you how crystal can be very elegant. The napkins that we use make the crystal sparkle because of the richness of the color we selected. The simple floral arrangement was a nice touch because the color of the flowers matched the napkins. The ribbons on the back of the chairs also blended in with the table decorations. Also, look at the bride and groom chairs. The groom’s chair has cloth that is similar to a tie and the bride’s is much more dainty.
The name placards might be considered a necessary but simple accessory. However, you can also spice them up to match the decor. As you can see, we used diamond studs to accent the cards. It made something simple instantly elegant.
We can’t forget the desserts. We show you how cupcakes can be just as special as a traditional wedding cake. For example, look at the his/her cupcakes. His cupcake has a top hat and hers has a pearl ring. They are accented with the pearl necklace. We also displayed cake pops and a table that combined cupcakes and a wedding cake together. We just wanted to show you that you have plenty of options and you can make your selections based on your budget and preference.
Love how the sun is coming through in this photo !
The dresses are stunning. They are a blend of the traditional gown with the train but with a modern flair. They are complemented well by the hair accessories and styles.
Now check out this bouquet !! Isn’t this amazing? I love how some of the green dangles.
We hope that you have allowed your imagination to start running and realized that you can have the wedding of your dreams on any budget.
A Special Thanks to all the awesome vendors !! We will be posting some more pics tomorrow.
