Samantha & Shane

August 24, 2021 by Chatham Station

Saying “love was in the air” to describe a wedding is sort of stating the obvious (…. one would hope), and in the case of Samantha and Shane, that was certainly true. The couple shared with us that they were committed to being in the moment and fully present with each other during each minute and it showed.

The First Look

… turned out to be with Dad. Samantha and Shane were particular with details, in the BEST way. They weren’t persnickety, but had a vision in mind, and Shane wanted the experience of seeing his bride for the first time when she was walking down the aisle. So Samantha and her dad shared the first look instead and it was incredibly sweet.

The Ceremony

Shane was rewarded for the wait and worked to control himself when he finally saw Samantha in her beautiful gown and veil.

The transparent tent was decorated with strings of twinkly lights, floral arrangements, an arbor flanked with florals and gossamer curtains. The result was so elegant, airy and beautiful. The setting was magical.

The couple incorporated a large table where they were joined by the wedding party during the reception, a dessert truss where they displayed their cake, a variety of cupcakes and treats like pecan pie. There were loads of flowers in their wedding colors and we repurposed the arbor and used it as a backdrop. They truly paid attention to details that made the event memorable and unique to them.

With rain out of the equation, the bridal party was able to go out with photographer Carly Hinson to get images. The blues and whites against the pastel florals looked amazing.

The First Dance

Samantha and Shane were completely present with each other, moment to moment, the entire day, but it was never more obvious than when they shared their first dance as husband and wife. They couldn’t take their eyes off each other as they swayed to Chris Stapleton’s Tennessee Whiskey, and even had a videographer there to capture it.

The Details

For the reception, the couple had personalized cocktails named for them and a cool lounge area set up for guests to gather and relax. The dance floor stayed crowded all evening and those not dancing were playing corn hole, enjoying sweets and signature drinks, and celebrating with the couple.

Congratulation to this beautiful couple on their new life together!

Nelda & Matt

August 10, 2021 by Chatham Station

This sweet couple’s intimate wedding and lively reception, with Nelda’s Venezuelan and Italian heritage and influences incorporated, made it a day to remember. The private ceremony was at the Holy Name of Jesus Cathedral and afterwards, guests came to Chatham Station to enjoy cocktail hour on the patio and proceed to party like it was the end of time!

The Party

The colors they chose were white and blush with hints of gold and complemented by flowers in the same palette with some pops of pink.

Matt and Nelda’s cake table showcased a metal hoop cake stand, adorned with greenery, as well as the couple’s initials and soft lighting. They also had personalized champagne flutes, cake knife and server for a personal touch! The entire arrangement looked stunning in front of the brick wall. In addition to cake were cream puffs, eclairs and mini cheesecakes which the guests loved.

Nelda’s dress had a full skirt and long train with lace detailing. She was also wearing a cathedral veil with a striking hair clip.

While the couple got engaged at the Biltmore Estate (a more traditional touch), for the day of the wedding, it was important to share some of Nelda’s families favorite influences. One that made everyone’s night was the arrival of Tequenos – the Venezuelan cheese stick. When it was delivered and announced, everyone rushed to the serving table to enjoy it! Nelda shared with us that this brought back great memories for her and her family as they had migrated to Venezuela from Italy. Tequenos makes an appearance at all the major family gatherings.

Other special touches were the espresso mugs given to each family. These were beautifully wrapped and on top of the gift box was a delicate ribbon and flower with five petals that contained Jordan almonds. An Italian tradition, the almonds represent health, wealth, happiness, fertility and longevity.

Towards the end of the evening, the couple hosted Hora Loca, which is Spanish for “the crazy hour” – a Venezuelan born tradition. Naturally, the crazy hour meant props, so glow sticks, hats, headbands, glasses, leis and feather boas. The bride and groom wore crowns and DJ Willis kept the party going late into the evening and early morning.

We loved being a part of their special day and hosting a party with such personal significance and family customs. Many happy returns to you both Nelda and Matt!
