{Virginia} A Beautiful Wedding with Persian Details
From Audra Wrisley Photography & Design: “This Virginia wedding was a truly unique combination of Persian-American cultures, infused with exquisite hand crafted details that made the wedding a wonderfully intimate celebration. The Virginia Cliffe Inn provided the perfect backdrop for the colorful outdoor celebration. Honey from HoneyDew Events worked wonders incorporating beautiful shades of blue and turquoise into a unique guest book, hand-painted corn hole boards, and a brownie bar for dessert! Family was a huge part of the celebration; the flowers were all arranged by hand by the bride’s mom, and the Persian-American ceremony was performed by the couple’s siblings. There wasn’t a dry eye to be found during the couple’s hand-written vows to each other. One of my favorite moments of the day had to be the spontaneous fist pump after their exit! I couldn’t have had more fun getting to know this amazing duo and photographing their special day.”
{Louisiana} A French Quarter Elopement by Elizabeth Ray Photography
Although they don’t reside in New Orleans, it is the bride’s hometown. She remembered trips to the French Quarter as a little girl. When they were deciding where they should say their wedding vows to one another, Kim and Brian knew that New Orleans was the place for them.
When asked what one word most describes his wife, Brian wrote “myrock.” Isn’t that perfect, y’all?
{Virginia} A Garden Wedding by Katie Estes Photography
Katie Estes Photography of Blacksburg, Virginia sent us this sweet wedding that has a little bit of Russian culture added in for good measure! As part of the bride’s wedding tradition, the groom carried her over the venue’s garden bridge. The wedding was intimate and handmade, with the bride’s mother arranging the bouquets and much of the decor. The lovely newlyweds served pecan pie instead of wedding cake, and their wedding favors were Pop Rocks! Don’t you just love this couple already?
