Fairy Tale Wedding for Nicolle and Sean!

Nicolle and Sean are true Disney fans. Their favorite Disney movie is Up. There were words like "Once upon a time" and "Happily ever after" incorporated into their ceremony. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRkfsbaTQxNRSKoeBWLa0AetkeFGZCOeOcHZxDXezum4yMcvKsDBBbZptaRJuzTYQOwns0eLh8x5RV795VswzGH_CzepZLTIf0A8h2nCPCTJW6hQY_ZFYW4M7ms86HskN88bWzH6QvWCc/s1600/DSCN1408.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRkfsbaTQxNRSKoeBWLa0AetkeFGZCOeOcHZxDXezum4yMcvKsDBBbZptaRJuzTYQOwns0eLh8x5RV795VswzGH_CzepZLTIf0A8h2nCPCTJW6hQY_ZFYW4M7ms86HskN88bWzH6QvWCc/s1600/DSCN1408.JPG" width="428" /></a></div>Their wedding program was one of the cleverest depictions I have ever seen for a wedding program. The house and balloons represent the movie Up and the mouse ears, their love of all things Disney. Notice too that the bride is standing on  steps to raise her up to the groom's level.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc_VnIWtIN7mFzTwFgy9vQ8vatOVOSLdxKBAJCbeqMtAtHBZWXypclp4WMsC_RyH028tO0whkzNRcGtw-PVpvevCgWffZ73Eee2-Y2OLGUt_9nVcvlOKgrqF3QFpKgsBKN3VPpNUIf1gA/s1600/DSCN1405.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc_VnIWtIN7mFzTwFgy9vQ8vatOVOSLdxKBAJCbeqMtAtHBZWXypclp4WMsC_RyH028tO0whkzNRcGtw-PVpvevCgWffZ73Eee2-Y2OLGUt_9nVcvlOKgrqF3QFpKgsBKN3VPpNUIf1gA/s1600/DSCN1405.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Their wedding was Thursday August 14th, 2014 at the <a href="http://www.second-empire.com/weddings/" target="_blank">Second Empire </a>downtown Raleigh. It is a wonderful place for small intimate weddings. Above is the East Parlor which has been all decked out by Kelley Kennedy of <a href="http://teacupfloral.com/" target="_blank">Teacup Floral </a>with petals in the aisle and bows on the chairs. I am seeing their delightful wedding program for the first time in this photo and noticing that the bride was standing on steps! Neil MacAulay of <a href="http://www.ourfamily-photo.com/" target="_blank">Our Family Photo</a>, relative of the groom's family, was our professional photographer. He is from Charlotte. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHOGUxLS9g6D2figdr9tMvRACzF0mbRXM_OTQbF6GJunPnfM1QSFSh6ezIMVS1XED4CF0Up-w1vnl5uIND7M8SewPNUFhKiw5mRs1f9sBAL0-Wuh8qKJfC8EuoM-oJOgvMik-C4dqhZ00/s1600/DSCN1412.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHOGUxLS9g6D2figdr9tMvRACzF0mbRXM_OTQbF6GJunPnfM1QSFSh6ezIMVS1XED4CF0Up-w1vnl5uIND7M8SewPNUFhKiw5mRs1f9sBAL0-Wuh8qKJfC8EuoM-oJOgvMik-C4dqhZ00/s1600/DSCN1412.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>Downstairs the preparations for the reception are complete! Unfortunately the wedding cake had not been brought out of refrigeration so we don't have a photo. Another unfortunate turn of events was that the violinist who was supposed to play for the ceremony did not show up. Marilyn, event manager for <a href="http://www.second-empire.com/weddings/" target="_blank">Second Empire</a>, upon learning that, immediately sprang into action, procured a boom box and downloaded the Disney tunes for the ceremony and we had music! Good going, Marilyn!!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8L5SA9JM9UT5bioFzW9An4RS4U2RoSEW5Vj9fTqEAl155oygSoNDTvT1SzvCm-FObVOIkoAgt2SnTDDwiQrURrLnAvugX-Z_7WWUcofn0OlL2HpMf1_qZJgOaYoVWA8mAVTxDbSNOeV0/s1600/DSCN1424.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8L5SA9JM9UT5bioFzW9An4RS4U2RoSEW5Vj9fTqEAl155oygSoNDTvT1SzvCm-FObVOIkoAgt2SnTDDwiQrURrLnAvugX-Z_7WWUcofn0OlL2HpMf1_qZJgOaYoVWA8mAVTxDbSNOeV0/s1600/DSCN1424.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>When it was time to begin, Christine, friend of Sean's mother who had been tapped to direct the wedding, signaled for me and the groom and his attendants to enter.

Christine and Robert's Sweet Wedding at Second Empire!

Out of all the people in the world, Christine and Robert have found each other! Like many of us whose first marriages did not endure, we feel like we have been given a miraculous chance for happiness when we connect with our soul mates!

Kristin and Jeffrey Marry in a Sweet Family Ceremony at Second Empire!

Kristin and Jeffrey were planning a wedding on October 13, 2012 at the <a href="http://www.second-empire.com/weddings/" target="_blank">Second Empire</a> historic restaurant in Raleigh where I do many small weddings. It is a very elegant and comfortable venue for an intimate wedding. Kristin contacted me in July to see if I was available and happily I was. I met with them in August and we started planning their ceremony. They wanted to include Kristin's two daughters, Claire and Elena, in the ceremony so we incorporated a Family Unity Sand Ceremony so they girls could actively participate. The big day arrived and it was a gorgeous fall day, perfect for their wedding. Photographing their wedding was Caroline of <a href="http://www.carolinezphotography.com/" target="_blank">carolinezphotography</a>. I have not worked with Caroline before so it was a great chance to meet her and exchange cards. From her website I see she does nice work. As a disclaimer, the photographs in this blog, however, were taken by my assistant, Marty, with my point and shoot digital camera and not Caroline! I know  her professional photos are much superior to these. I just like to tell the story on the blog!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivYUCp1LhubfeGASk1flOMO5TI1W60kv_GtQ9BrCaLTpbI9G17O32JGp2_3LMe_9xsJ2cfaFNuLEemjn7mFUAosehRrJfDuPKxSF-6NB5_VSO0KXzhoi1r-A2RmpJde-vagxRNvvcYKr4/s1600/DSCN6573.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivYUCp1LhubfeGASk1flOMO5TI1W60kv_GtQ9BrCaLTpbI9G17O32JGp2_3LMe_9xsJ2cfaFNuLEemjn7mFUAosehRrJfDuPKxSF-6NB5_VSO0KXzhoi1r-A2RmpJde-vagxRNvvcYKr4/s400/DSCN6573.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>They arranged for the ceremony to be in the East Parlor of the main floor.
