Traditional Wilmington Wedding with a Pop of Yellow
If you looked up "modern elegance" in the fictional dictionary of style, this wedding would pop up - I'm certain. It's one part classic and another part contemporary, and drenched in pretty thanks to Design Perfection. Blueberry Creative captured the gallery AND film so you can swoon for yourself. Enjoy!
From the Bride... Although Andrew & I now live in Fort Lauderdale, we both were raised in Wilmington, NC. We believe it to be one of the most beautiful and special places on earth. A wedding day is already an incredibly special day for a bride, but I was able to have the wedding I have always dreamed of at Grand Oaks, my family home. Since I was a child I imagined my wedding taking place out on our lawn, overlooking the Intracostal Waterway, the beautiful Marshlands and the incredible 100-year-old Live Oak Trees that the South is known for. This home holds a special place in my heart, full of love and wonderful memories growing up. The opportunity for Andrew and I to share our vows and begin our lives together at this amazing place makes our memories even that much more special! Our wedding at Grand Oaks, PERFECTION!
The best thing about our wedding day was first and foremost sharing the most incredible day of our lives with family and friends. We are blessed with many wonderful people who have touched our lives in special ways and each had a part of us growing into the couple we've become. We were honored to have them with us to share the beginning of our journey together as Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Stephen Grocki!
With a year of planning and brainstorming, another best of our wedding was seeing our vision of every little detail come true. It truly was a fairy tale wedding, with Jeff Bryant of Design Perfection with us every step of the way. Jeff's creative talents made planning FUN, "we just clicked, he got us". Jeff's eye for elegance and detail was exactly the professional direction we needed. We asked and Design Perfection made it happen. I remember when I saw everything come together, I thought to myself that it was as if he had taken a picture from my dreams and created a reality. From the crystal chandeliers hung amongst the moss in the 100 year old Live Oaks, the fountains full of gorgeous floral arrangements and customized linens. Even perfectly placed accent lighting, as our reception went into the night, and dancing under the stars on our personalized dance floor (a surprise from Jeff).
We appreciate the talents of the amazing photography and videography from Blueberry Creative. Besides the aesthetic of the wedding, the most important thing to us was the way the wedding was captured. After seeing Blueberry Creative’s work and meeting with Austin and Adam, we knew that they understood exactly what we wanted as far as memories for our day. Thanks to Blueberry Creative we have the most beautifully artistic memories of our wedding that we will be able to cherish for the rest of our happily ever after!
As the bride and fashion professional, I feel I can’t talk about what was best about my wedding and not include the extremely above and beyond experience of choosing my Vera Wang wedding dress. Not only was it my wedding dress but, it was my dream wedding dress. The whole experience with the Vera Wang team was absolutely priceless. From the initial appointment trying on wedding dresses to my second and final fitting I was treated like a princess. I tried on countless dresses at Vera Wang each one more beautiful than the one before and honestly each one felt like a dream because it was a Vera. I had never considered myself to be the girl that would cry when I found my dress, but I totally did. Therefore, as the bride, one of the “bests” of my wedding day was wearing my perfect wedding dress!
We are so grateful to each of our amazing vendors that contributed their talents for our once in a lifetime wedding.
