This wedding makes me happy.  Makes me happy with its adorable duo, breathtaking setting and crazy gorgeous details.  Which is no surprise, really, since it comes straight from the planning genius that is B. Moore Events and is overflowing with the fab stylings of Akeem Clayton Design and sooo much pretty, you won’t know what to do with yourselves.  And the gallery from Scobey Photography?  Just as amazing. Join me there for all of the lovely.

 

From B. Moore Events… Candace and Kofi wanted a rustic wedding with a formal flair.  The Foundry at Puritan Mill is the perfect venue for any transformation.  We took lanterns, moss and peach trees and gave them a more formal edge with a mixture of estate tables and rounds with different looks for each.  The couple also wanted to fuse their cultures.  She is a Southern girl and he is Ghanaian.  We were able to mix them beautifully through the food.  They had a morning wedding and brunch style reception overflowing with food from both cultures.

From the Bride… We met in Seattle, Washington in March, 2011. Oddly enough, 6 months earlier I was given Don’s number by our friend Paul Sabovik, so that we could join efforts in our apartment searches and become roommates.  Don decided to ignore my voicemail where I introduced myself and asked him to coffee, and when we finally did meet 6 months later, the first words out of my mouth after he introduced himself were “You never called me back.” I saw him again later that month at The Amazing Egg Hunt, in Mukilteo, WA, which he helped organize with Paul Sabovik Presents, and I spent the entire day trying to get hints as to where the hidden eggs were, and later that day we shared our first kiss while he was dressed up as the Easter bunny, mask and all. A few days later we had our first date at the Seattle Space Needle, where we shared a cup of coffee… from that point on we dated, and fell into an immediate rhythm and the rest is history.

We moved to New York City together after only 4 months of dating, and Don proposed to me during the firework display in the Italy pavilion in Epcot, Walt Disney World. Walt Disney World in Florida was a significant place to us because many years before, I worked in the theme park, and became close friends with Paul Sabovik… Who later was the reason I decided to move to Seattle, where he eventually introduced me to Don.

There are so many, many reasons I adore this darling Decatur wedding, if I sat down and listed them all, I’d fill up an entire notebook worth of prettiness.  Not that I wouldn’t love spending my day gushing over the sweet details bursting from every image captured by Anne Almasy… I plan on doing that anyway. Because this is the kind of wedding that completely captured every ounce of your attention with lush, DIY florals, an elegant BCBGMAXAZRIA gown and a Solarium reception that will take your breath away. See it all in the full gallery.

 

From Anne Almasy… Lindsey, a user experience researcher, and Darin, a pilot, both love good company, good drinks, coffee in the park, crossword puzzles, leisurely mornings, brunch, dark bars, live music, yoga, kickboxing, travel, seeing the world, and Ernest Hemingway. They agree that the glass is half full. And, in their words, they were “really, really, really excited to be married!”

Lindsey and Darin wanted their wedding to be small enough to be intimate, but large enough to include everyone who should be there. They wanted a familial atmosphere, very cozy and conversational. “Sure,” they said, “it’s about us, our marriage and our commitment to one another, but it’s also about celebrating the amazing (and they are truly amazing) people in our lives, now connected through us.”
