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.
