Stunning Southern Affair by Calder Clark Designs
We have one more absolutely lovely Southern wedding for you today by Calder Clark Designs in Charleston. But this one is even more special because it was photographed by one of our all time favorite photography studios, A Bryan Photo. This wedding is so incredibly chic…and yet it also has this air of warmth and intimacy that completely makes me happy.
Tina and Jim came to us with definite ideas on the style and feel that they wanted for their wedding. Tina was inspired by our local baker, Jim Smeal; she had seen a beautiful live oak tree cake that he had designed in the past and new immediately that we wanted him to design her cake, but to tweak it to be her own.
We chose a palette of punchy jasmine green and mocha, and used that throughout the wedding. Her dress was Kenneth Poole for Amsale purchased from Nitsa’s in Winston Salem. Her bouquet, designed by Blossoms Events, was a beautiful gathering of white peonies, cattleya orchids, and lilac and covered in a simple ivory silk satin ribbon with pearl pins.

Obviously, floral fascinators are very in right now, but don't think of them as something that will date your wedding! They are timeless and really add another beautiful detail to your wedding look. I make floral and feather fascinators and would happy to work with you on a custom piece for your wedding for not only you, but your bridesmaids, flower girl and even your mother! You can email me directly at k.d.wilmore@gmail.com or visit my etsy store for some of my casual looks at www.thimblekiss.etsy.com
This wedding is gorgeous. I'm from Savannah, Ga, Charlestons sister city, so this reminds me of home!

Her dress is out of this world, she looks like a mermaid with that little edge flittering up at the neckline.
