Melanie and Marcus were married in Lake Lure, NC and held their wedding reception at the Lake Lure Inn and Spa. The ceremony took place in a park that had a great view of the lake. The weather was ideal, with highs in the mid 70s. The reception was split in between a dining room and a patio area.The food was great and the dancing went late into the evening.

Figuring out how to bustle is always a challenge, this image conveys that. Notice the bride's reflection in the mirror.

I enjoy catching glances during the ceremony. I just think she looks great here, the sun acting as a hair light.









We had so much fun. It was great getting to meet your family and friends. I hope you two have a great time on your honeymoon. See you back in Raleigh!
