Even with all of these styled shoots that I’ve been planning & styling, I’ve been busy working away on all of my 2016 weddings and the wedding coming up the most quickly: on New Year’s Eve! Anna and Matt are getting married on NYE at the amazing Mint Museum in uptown Charlotte (where I’m from!), and I cannot wait for them to tie the knot. I’ve known Anna since high school, and we even went to UNC together (though she is a couple years younger!). I was honored when she asked me to help her (and her mom!) plan their wedding, and it’s been so, so fun. Anna is the ideal bride, and I’ve loved every minute of working on this sure-to-be gorgeous wedding.

Since it’s on New Year’s Eve, we’re going on all out with plenty of champagne/bubbly inspired details and decor. Think lots of gorgeous blush tones, gold, and pops of cream and merlot… yes, please! Anna’s gown is so stunning, and the Mint Museum is the perfect venue to bring this entire vision to life. Their menu is also to-die-for, and I’m eagerly anticipating the cake, too! We have some awesome surprises for the guests, and the Charlotte fireworks, viewed from the balcony, will be the perfect exclamation point on the evening. I’m also doing all of the florals for this wedding, and it’s been so, so fun pulling together the different flowers and overall look – this might be a new favorite of mine!
