ROUDABUSH SEED STORE

There is a wonderful new venue in Wilmington-- The Roudabush Room. All of the locals know it as the former Roudabush Seed Store. For much of the 1900's is was the place where most people went to purchase bulbs, seeds, and fresh flowers. I thought it was the perfect theme for a wedding, so we did a rustic vintage approach to the seed store. Photos by the ever amazing Millie Holloman.

We filled apothecary jars with different types of seeds and bulbs and had little paper bags printed that said Roudabush Seed Store.

We filled old product tins and boxes with millet, craspedia, solidego and star of Bethlehem for a wildflower look.

Laura from Knotical Weddings convinced her boyfriend Ryan to model with her. They are an amazing couple with a phenomenal sense of style! While we borrowed the dress from A Carolina Wedding, all of Ryan's clothes were from his own closet.

Photo Shoot--Travel

For this one, we set up a 1940's travel theme on the rooftop bar of level 5. Millie got some amazing shots overlooking the city-- those coming soon!

Vintage Theater

Millie sent over a few more images today from our photo shoot. This set up was at City Stage, Level 5 in downtown Wilmington. It is a wonderful historic theater on the fifth floor of an old building! I would absolutely love to see a wedding done here!

SNEAK PEEK

About twice a year, Millie Holloman and I get together for a photo shoot. Last month, we set up some shots at The Balcony on Dock and Level 5. For this photo shoot, my assistants (whom I could not live without!) and I dreamed up 6 vintage themes to tackle.

Millie sent over the first of some photos today and they are AWESOME! She is so amazing! I wanted to post a few of the shots....there are tons more to come!

Art deco just seems so perfect for The Balcony...

This one I was a bit worried about-- a retro 60's graffiti theme. Turned out to be a favorite for everyone. We even added some removable graffiti to the front window. Larger images to come!

This one was one of my favorites. I wanted to bring in a hint of my literary background-- so we designed a 1930's inspired literary table. The gorgeous wood backdrop for this shoot was the theater seating at Level 5.

BEACH WEDDING

Stephanie and Blair were married this May on Wrightsville Beach with a reception at The Balcony on Dock. Their colors were navy and green and this worked wonderfully with the location and the style, which was a natural twist on vintage. Thanks to Anne McGowan for capturing the details!
