Our Labor of Love ~ Jacqui & Lachlan At The King Plow Arts Center
For all of you who know your way around the wedding web-world, you will immediately recognize the exquisite photographic style behind Jesse & Whit’s images … We were thrilled when they gave us the OK to share Jacqui and Lachlan’s wedding photos with you. Sooooo incredible.
from Jesse and Whit’s blog …
Sometimes i take a break from my day and write a little what-i-am-thankful-for list and this past month jacqui and lachlan were on the top of my list. they are the kind of people that shine the light and no matter what kind of day you are having, they will rub right off on you. so needless to say…the whole wedding went like this. completely filled with light and love ...
… we already felt like old friends when the wedding began. our first meeting with them was over tacos and beers. it was instant love. then we met for their engagement shoot about 11 days before the wedding and it seemed like we were all a little frazzled between rush hour traffic, wedding plans and the wedding season that was ahead of us. it took about 5 minutes before we all found ourselves rolling in green grass, breaking through fences and laughing our tails off! jacqui is the social sales manager at king plow so how she found time to plan her own wedding amongst everyone else’s is beyond me.
Jesse and Whit are the fantastic photographers of Our Labor of Love. They are based in Atlanta, but split their time between there and California, with a few trips to Martha’s Vineyard along the way. In other words, they will be more than happy to join you at your destination of choice! Just looking at the images of Jacqui and Lachlan’s wedding … well, you can see that Jesse and Whit totally connect with their couples in an intimate and privileged way. And isn’t that what you want for your wedding day? A photography team who really ‘gets’ you!?
From the beautiful bride, Jacqui …
We had the most fantastic experience from start to finish with all of our vendors! From our planner, Christina Zubowicz from Magnolia Weddings, to Bold American Events and Catering for their unreal flowers and food, to Michelle Smith from Inviting Ideas for her invitations, programs, and menu cards, Frosted Pumpkin for his unreal hanging wedding cake, and lastly but most importantly Whit and Jesse from Our Labor of Love!!!!
Lachlan and I met in Aspen Co while both working a Ski season. He was the bartender at the famous Little Nell Relais and Chateau and I was a hostess 
he is Australian and I am South African, so it was really important to incorporate this into our wedding. One of the ways we did this was to serve red wines from Australia and white wines from South Africa. We had over 4 continents represented, making it a truly well traveled wedding crowd! I love black and white but wanted a fresh spring feel, so all of our flowers were yellow – my favorite color! I also love the contradiction of modern and vintage so having when I found my Rivini lace dress, I knew we had to have some fun old fashioned elements – hence the yellow umbrellas, soft personal flowers, and long vintage veil. We have been in Atlanta for 3 years and love it! Lachlan is starting his MBA at Emory in the fall and I have been a Sales Manager for Bold American for 3 years.
Again, from Our Labor of Love’s blog … this was “out-of-the-box” and “into-amazing” wedding for king plow. steve, michelle, susan blew minds with their interiors. Tulips hung upside down from a moss base that reflected into the mirrors of the table tops. hanging cakes. rooms filled with umbrellas. floor to ceiling tapestries. it was insane. and so was the smilebooth. {If you’re not familiar with the Smilebooth, you totally need to take a look {here}! SO much fun for your guests!}
Upside-down tulips??? Hanging cakes??? Whoa!!!!
Now that is truly awesome! The stunning cakes were provided by Little Black Book member The Frosted Pumpkin Gourmet, Inc.
The yellow, black and white color palette has made a big splash in the wedding world, but none so grand as this!
What a warm and enticing wedding celebration this was. Just the perfect mix of sophistication, bubbly charm and a big dose of whimsy !
THANK YOU~ to Jesse & Whit and the whole OLOL team for sharing this day! And a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Jacqui & Lachlan !!
Be sure to visit the Our Labor of Love website and their blog for so many more gorgeous examples of the work!

i am wearing a similar dress for my june wedding, but it has a thin beaded sash and a straighter neckline in front. Did you modify your dress, because I was on the fence about my sash, and now i think i like it better without...

Lovely veil, can you share who it is by? I am getting married in April and pretty much have everything handled save for the veil. I am smitten by this one and would love to know who it is by.
Thanks! LC -

I echo msbunny: How did they DO that! That is just about the most magical looking setup I've ever seen for a reception.

The wedding day is a very special day for the bride and the outfit worn on this day should also be special. Having a http://www.irisdbridal.com/catalog/custom-veils " rel="nofollow">custom bridal veil bridal veil made is a better idea than buying something off the rack and totally ordinary. Have the veil made exactly according to the bride’s choice and watch how it add beauty to the whole look.

Wow! How did they do the flowers AND ensure that the soil/flowers did not fall into any of the guests' food during the dinner?
