Weding Dress 2015: All Events DJ

Did you know that <a href="http://www.highgrove-nc.com/" target="_blank">Highgrove Estates</a> was once the home of a prominent dentist in Fuquay-Varina? When two entrepreneurs Maria and Vicky bought the estate about 10 to 12 years ago it had deteriorated quite a bit because of standing vacant for some years. They transformed the property into one of the prettiest and most elegant wedding venues in the Triangle. Maria built <a href="http://www.chateaubellevie.com/" target="_blank">Chateau Bellevie</a> on the adjacent property and a few years later, she and Vicky split the property into two separate venues. Now Vicky is the owner of Highgrove and Maria, Chateau Bellevie.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_YJz3vAgwWqZh4-TcBYJ4_pwOvLiqpkHlKhpJ2jZLF2B6bRQSUuP1M9yTFPzpVLYk1CW3SsunRewpJhtLM3XOFOfyKYrSfpSHlLOJaCklWS6_-U1MfdSReOL8aIFHPQ6qqGfN7pPMqJ0/s1600/DSCN9793.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="388" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_YJz3vAgwWqZh4-TcBYJ4_pwOvLiqpkHlKhpJ2jZLF2B6bRQSUuP1M9yTFPzpVLYk1CW3SsunRewpJhtLM3XOFOfyKYrSfpSHlLOJaCklWS6_-U1MfdSReOL8aIFHPQ6qqGfN7pPMqJ0/s1600/DSCN9793.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>The old siding was removed and the original clapboard underneath was restored. The landscaping is now matured and in its glory. Unfortunately we lost the big oak tree in front from which they hung a porch swing this past year, a spot for many wonderful photos of brides and grooms. I started officiating weddings there as soon as they opened and have had the joy of watching them develop the venue--the lovely terrace with a lovely roof to shade it, the marvelous garden ballroom, the pergola where 99% of the weddings take place, and so on! We wedding vendors are so grateful for wonderful venues like Highgrove for weddings!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJw8pPjZ-4YkalbEy7MTd4AioUFAjbWkyBkpMOrcOzzdz-lANHw2kR7KNRPYgZfc_L6Grek6zLKRadGVnRpmjjkMRP0sRqiQ-xLoAhRnWW17wi6pB5a0Fd_KM5Yf9TmW8BczcmIgIvcDw/s1600/DSCN9899.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJw8pPjZ-4YkalbEy7MTd4AioUFAjbWkyBkpMOrcOzzdz-lANHw2kR7KNRPYgZfc_L6Grek6zLKRadGVnRpmjjkMRP0sRqiQ-xLoAhRnWW17wi6pB5a0Fd_KM5Yf9TmW8BczcmIgIvcDw/s1600/DSCN9899.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Jamie and Aaron had a large monogram combining their initials to hang on the front door!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMDLyRsRNUleDHG8qKR1DkL3l9DWmyv1dtHFBRwsCQVkNoZ0qIDcTITH0ySI90-nYuBWkLZRpI6MMlBYIzWWOsEgOjtuzDBYDgp6bdiWoVJaXEEObNK_NzIPdUj6sxGnGII6v-HKPbHeI/s1600/DSCN9795.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="544" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMDLyRsRNUleDHG8qKR1DkL3l9DWmyv1dtHFBRwsCQVkNoZ0qIDcTITH0ySI90-nYuBWkLZRpI6MMlBYIzWWOsEgOjtuzDBYDgp6bdiWoVJaXEEObNK_NzIPdUj6sxGnGII6v-HKPbHeI/s1600/DSCN9795.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>The staff at <a href="http://flowersonbroadstreet.com/" target="_blank">Flowers on Broad Street</a> were busy perfecting the altar area.
