Sara + Tyler :: Sneak Peek and a Love Note
Tuesday, July 6, 2010 at 12:58PM Hi y'all! We've had a great wedding season so far and are so excited to share the gorgeous weddings we've been honored to produce. I had to share a quick preview from Sara + Tyler's wedding in Salisbury, North Carolina a few weeks ago. Sara was a dream to work with and we were so blessed to get to know these families. What an incredible day! Much more to come, but here's a little sneak peek. Planning and Design: Bliss Event Group, Flowers: Kebbie Hollingsworth, Lighting and production: Christopher Confero, Venue: The Boxwood Lodge, Photographs here by the lovely Nancy Ray. Full post with images from photographer Kyle Barnes coming soon.
Huge thanks to Chocolate Butterbean for the stunning custom signage and Smitten Sticks for the custom bow ties on a stick! Love love love! Oh, and those adorable striped straws? Created by our very own Emily Ayer with calligraphy by Moya Mimms.
We always give our brides the option to anonymously recommend us, but we've been lucky enough that all of them want to share their glowing words with us! So humbled by this recommendation from the bride, Mrs. Sara Dickinson:
Our wedding was three weeks ago in North Carolina. We both live in Arlington so Bliss helped us plan our wedding from a long distance.
In my opinion Bliss went above and beyond my wildest expectations. Lara and her team were accessible to me anytime during our 10-12 months working together and the promptness of their replies to my questions were practically real time. They have tons of resources to pull from and generously gave me options to choose from. Any wedding planning process is going to be challenging, but Lara made me feel comfortable throughout the whole thing -- I knew I could trust her to get the job done perfectly. I really enjoyed having Lara and her team handle all of the florals as well. That eliminated a vendor and really made the look of the day cohesive. Lara and her team also did a fantastic job dealing with my other wedding vendors.
Our wedding day was incredible. From the morning we started getting ready everything went smoothly to the moment I walked down the isle. I felt 100% relaxed and did not feel the need to have any sort of checklist going. Lara and the girls had it under control. Having Lara's assistant [Whitney] there was really beneficial with getting the guys ready/organized! I of course could not be in their area! I really felt so spoiled... I never wanted for ANYTHING throughout the day. Lara's crew are extremely professional and organized. I felt like I knew what was going on when and where, etc.
I do feel like I'm bragging to a complete stranger but I'm not the type to over embellish. I'm an extremely honest person and I mean it when I say this -- If you go with Lara and Bliss your wedding will be the most beautiful wedding you've ever been to. I promise you that.
On your wedding day it will be important to be surrounded by kind-hearted and loving people. A wedding is about love obviously and the love and passion that Lara and the crew have for their work is beaming through. I loved being surrounded by them on our wedding day. They will only add to the awesome joy you'll be feeling that day.
Good luck with your planning process and best wishes for a happy marriage! We're entering week 4 and absolutely loving it :)
Best Regards,
Sara Dickinson
We love you Sara and Tyler and can't wait to share your whole wedding here soon! xo Lara
