Belle Meade Plantation Wedding – Lara and James

Written by Mel McLellan

James and Lara's official union had been 10 years in the making. All that anticipation, planning, and excitement culminated in a beautiful June celebration at Belle Meade Plantation in Nashville. It was a the kind of day that is full of emotion with lots of hugs and tears of joy -- a personal favorite for Sean and mine. :0)  Add in one gorgeous couple and an amazing team of wedding professionals led by Signature Events creating a seamlessly flawless event and we are set! Branching Out did such a beautiful job with the flowers and Crumb de la Crumb's cake looked just amazing! I love this one that Sean got of the couple... For the featured moment of the evening, I have two favorites and since I mentioned all of the emotion, I thought this one was a must. Loving this tender moment between Lara and her dad. And then I was so excited about this image of James as he lit a celebratory cigar, that I can't do the blog post without it.  Cigars make awesome photographs... Lara and James, may the next 10, 20...50 years be even better than the last 10! We loved being a part of your wedding day and we can't wait to see you again soon to reveal all of your beautiful images! :0)  In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this little sneak peek.

Annie and Drew: A Fishers Island Wedding

Written by Mel McLellan

Friends and family flew in from all over the country.  Truckloads of flowers were arranged with great care.  A dream-team of some of the finest musicians in the world was assembled for just this one night.  And the tiny island of Fishers prepared to celebrate with one of the families with whom it shares some of it's longest and deepest ties. After visiting, I am fairly certain there is no place quite like Fishers Island.  Just off the coast of New York, the island is only 7 miles long and 1 mile wide.  Everyone knows everyone and life on Fishers has clearly remained a very certain way for a very long time.  It's a beautiful relic of a by-gone era and where Annie has spent her summers as long as she can remember.  It was the ideal setting for her marriage to Drew.  The wedding took place in the charming little Episcopal church just off the town's main drag.  The guests then partied late into the night at the island's exclusive golf club. After the ceremony, we made a quick trek over to Race Point where Drew proposed last year.  I love that this spot has now become a part of their wedding memories as well. I was trying to think of what moment would be most representative of Annie and Drew's wedding and what I kept coming back to was the dancing. The band really brought the house down. Annie and Drew - we wish you many years of happiness together!  You are tremendous people and we thank you so much for bringing us along to witness the fun, laughter and joy that made up your wedding day.  Congratulations! - Mel and Sean
