There is nothing I love more than seeing a bride’s vision come together on her wedding day!! LeeAnn came to me 7 months prior to her 8/2 wedding date, and we hit it off immediately…..she had this gorgeous vision in her mind of an ivory, peach and pale green …

Today we have an absolutely beautiful rustic North Carolina wedding for you, photographed by Kellie Kano!  Hannah and Paul’s wedding was a very simple but well-thought-out event, more proof that bigger is not always better when it comes to budget and that personal touches really mean the most when it comes to your big day.
