C&C's Wedding

Engagement Photo Bliss
I love the playfulness of this photo
loveys
have to have a logo to put everything together and also to capture the feel of your wedding--heart the C&C, especially since their last name will be C too, C cubed, I love it!
Carey said her dress does not have a drastic sweetheart neckline and she will be wearing a sash around hers
the back of her dress...love love love the buttons
(I guess I'm bias since I had them on mine too!)
an inspiration board put together by the bride herself, a job well done for sure~
trying on my dress, a little dark but it fits like a glove!
my mom wrapped my votives in lace for my wedding and they were spectacular, she did these for C&C's and I love the button accents she put on them. Mom-you rock!

My brother is getting married in a few weeks in upstate NY to his college sweet heart and I love how their names pair together, Carey and Chad, how perfect, right?! :) More than their names being perfectly in line, they are a wonderful pair who are very much in sync and I wish them a lifetime of love and happiness. I love you guys xoxo

Their wedding I would describe as French Country. The colors are peach, rose, tangerine, cream with gold accents

The Rehearsal Dinner will be held at The Lodge at Bristol Harbour which has a very rustic feel to it and has amazing views of Canandaigua Lake on the Finger Lakes. My mom (aka Martha Stewart) is playing off this feel by doing sunflower arrangements, black and white linens, wrapping votives with black and white and a sunflower image, wooden boards with chalkboard paint for table seating. I know she will pull it all together so it looks quite fabulous!
The ceremony will be held at The Third Presbyterian Church in town and from there guests can walk to the reception venue
The reception will be held at The Genesee Valley Club. It is hard to find photos that do this place justice so look here if you need to see some more photos for now-I'll have some more shots when I get back from the wedding. The club has a lovely covered terrace where dancing will occur and cocktails. Inside the walls are covered in blue toile and it definitely has a French feel and will be perfect for their affair.

Beauty, heartfelt vows, tears, dancing and watching two people and two families come together. I CANT WAIT!

To C&C!!~
