Real Weddings: Meet Rachel

Meet #carolhannahbride Rachel!

Rachel and Joe wed in a contemporary ceremony in Boston. The couple took full advantage of the city sights for their portraits, and their venue, The State Room, offered panoramic views of the city and harbor.

Rachel wore a custom combination featuring the Ria bodice and Versailles Trumpet Skirt, all in silk 4ply crepe. The easy fabric and sleek silhouette complemented her modern vision.

Congrats cuties!

Real Weddings: Meet Christina

Christina and Steve were married at the French Legation Museum in downtown Austin. This celebration was full of personal touches. The couple exchanged handwritten vows, and were serenaded by a lovely group of women in Christina's family during their ceremony. Can you believe that the bride designed their invitation suite herself?!? So much talent, so much beauty, so much love.

Real Wedding: Meet Sabrina

Sabrina and Jeff did it Brooklyn style! This wedding celebrated Manhattan's coolest borough from beginning to end. The couple created beautiful mementos of their day during a first look and pre-ceremony portrait session in Grand Army Plaza, under the arch. Talk about an iconic Brooklyn landmark! Their ceremony and reception took place at Deity NYC, 5,000 square feet of exposed brick, amazing glass artwork, and an indoor tree of life located in Boerum Hill, on an historic stretch of Atlantic Ave in Downtown Brooklyn. Sabrina wore our Versailles Bustier and Versailles Trumpet Skirt. She accessorized her look with a Custom Gold and Baroque Pearl Headpiece, and a vintage family heirloom veil. 

Real Wedding: Meet Heather

Over the river and through the woods to the most enchanted place we go. Heather and Ben took it to the forest, celebrating their love in the wilderness, just outside of Boston. The sun shone bright, the water glistened, and the day was full of joy. Heather chose a custom gown, settling on a combination of our Citrine bodice draping and Versailles Trumpet Skirt. After the great outdoors, these two rocked a great indoor reception at The Sinclair. Just check out those custom band posters and exclusive tickets.

Real Weddings: Meet Hein

Hein and Jonathan hit a few of New York's five boroughs on their wedding day. We love that they took the time to visit the historic Forest Hills Inn, a Queen's city garden, and of course a quintessential subway platform for some truly New York pre-ceremony photos. Their reception was at the Metropolitan Glen Cove, on the beautiful North Shore of Long Island. Hein was a vision in our Silk Satin Bustier and Versailles Trumpet Skirt which made the transition from urban setting to Atlantic beach seamlessly. She added a custom Alencon Lace Veil for her ceremony and changed into our Mulberry Skirt to take full advantage of the dance floor during the after-party. Three looks and we applaud them all.

We can't get over the enchanting chartreuses, mints, and emeralds in this shoot by Sawyer Baird! It's Charleston countryside beauty at it's greenest and finest. We couldn't ask for a better backdrop for our Versailles Trumpet Skirt, Chambord Skirt, and Lace Bustier.
