The couple: Joanna and Vernon
The wedding: 9.17.10 – The Palisades Country Club, Charlotte, NC
What three adjectives that best describe your wedding? Casual, modern-vintage, easy-going.
What inspired your personal wedding style, and how did you incorporate your style and personalities into your big day? I wanted something that felt vintage but also fresh, very easy-going like both of us, and with comfort food. We had a mashed potato martini bar, sliders, mini-blts, mini pizzas, etc…
Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love the most about your wedding? I loved seeing my vision come to life, and being surrounded by the people that we love. One of the comments a guest made was that our wedding just seemed like us.

I love the windmills, such a unique and fun idea! The cake is amazing too, the pattern looks so pretty!
Let me say I know and adore this couple, and the wedding was SO “them”. Everything was so stylish, and fabulous, and FUN. The event was perfectly coordinated and the yellow/gray was gorgeous! Plus the food was great (bacon at every station) and there was a photo booth set up by Rachel Fesko (awesome photographer) where people had props and could do silly poses. LOVE!
Yellow and gray, I am loving it this year! Gorgeous cake, flowers and stunning bride! That cake topper? Adorable! Check out more yellow and gray inspiration: http://www.ericaannphotography.com/blog/2011/01/jenni-and-bjeorn-mcminnville-wedding-photographer/
