Glamorous Southern Wedding

If there is anything I've learned in my years at SMP, it's that Southern with a side of glamour is always an amazing combo.  And this breathtaking North Carolina wedding?  Proving my point whole heartedly.  It's the fabulous stylings of Events By La Fete meets all things sophisticated and sparkly.  See it captured in beautiful images by Rebecca for Millie Holloman Photography in the full gallery.

From Events By La Fête... Meredith and Alex, both lovers of the outdoors, were married on the groom's family farm, complete with blossoming cotton fields! It was the perfect backdrop for a gorgeous Southern wedding. Meredith wanted to enhance the natural beauty of the landscape so we kept all of the colors very neutral with whites, creams and touches of natural wood. Billowing white fabric, crystal chandeliers and antique French furniture glammed up the design and provided the perfect juxtaposition to the farm land. It was important to the bride and groom that each guests had a memorable experience. Sol Fusion was hired to entertain and not a guest went home without dancing! Interactive food stations were placed throughout the tent which encouraged guests to mingle and taste a plethora of various North Carolina delicacies. The bride also wanted to honor her father, a lover of bourbon, so we created a "Man Cave" that doubled as a bourbon bar.

Meredith wore a strapless tulip chantilly lace mermaid gown with hand pieced circular flange train and mum garden hemline designed by Vera Wang. In addition, she wore Vera Wang’s Lisbeth veil, which was a chapel length two layer veil with tulip and rose lace trim. Meredith was absolutely stunning and we were honored to help her create her perfect wedding day!
