"A couple of weeks before our shoot date, I sat down with Cathy from Cathy Nugent Weddings and Katy from Made to Flourish Calligraphy and we discussed what words we hoped the shoot to evoke. 'Romantic,' 'whimsical,' and 'feminine,' were mentioned a lot."

"We wanted our cake to have a bit of whimsy to it, and decided that dripping gold accents on a cake would fit perfectly. Candi from Sweet Creations by Candi! did such a beautiful job with the wedding cake!"

"I decided that the cake and dessert cart from The Vintage Rental Co. would look absolutely lovely illuminated by the natural window light provided by one of the older windows with decorative stained glass in The McGarity House."

"For the table scape in The McGarity House's dining area we focused on delicate pale pink and gold accents, antique pieces, and organic foliage."

"Lisa (Thorne & Thistle) surprised us by making our floral-adorned chandelier dreams come true! Also, her skilled draping of the greenery off of the wooden sweetheart table provided by The McGarity House was so lovely."

"Katy designed name cards and an invitation suite as well--specifically for the shoot--gold ink for lettering and detailing.  The Vintage Rental Co.'s cream arm chairs were a perfect neutral for the shoot as they helped maintain the focus on the tablescape and provided a modern elegance."

"The second area we used at The McGarity House was an upstairs room used often by brides as they get ready for their wedding day. It includes a gorgeous faux fireplace with a mantle adorned by vintage tea pots. We really wanted to make use of this room as it's light was gorgeous despite the mucky weather outside.

"Cathy draped a glittery piece of fabric over a couch provided by The Vintage Rental Co. and decorate with candelabras, glass candle holders, and trays of pink macarons (which were absolutely delicious and unexpected. Thank you, Sweet Creations by Candi!). We envisioned this as a dream-like moment that our bride might take a moment to savor the present and indulge a little bit during this romantic affair."


"Lastly, Katy (our model as well as calligrapher) looked gorgeous in our Gold Lace Catherine Gown by Erin Fetherston. One big reason we went with this dress was because it gave us that air of whimsy we wanted, while maintaining a delicate, feminine feeling. Our hair and makeup artist was our planner, Cathy, as she is quite the renaissance woman and has a history of doing hair and make up in the past. 

Thankfully, between clouds and rainy patches we were able to run outside and explore The McGarity House's gorgeous property and wrap around porch as we captured this whimsical bridal look."
