I met Megan once, several years ago at an NC State football game with our mutual friend Amy (who was a bridesmaid in the wedding). We became facebook friends, and hadn’t spoken since.  Late last year she contacted me about her wedding, and we were thrilled to be part of it!  I hadn’t been to Manteo since the infamous 4th grade trip that everyone takes to see the Elizabeth II ship, Jockey’s Ridge & Bodie Island lighthouse…. needless to say, I was excited to visit this part of our state again.  I arrived about 1030AM at Salon Vogue in Kitty Hawk, where Megan was having her hair & makeup done by the talented ladies there. Back at the Hilton, Megan’s bridesmaids got ready.  Megan’s brother couldn’t get his tie tied…. so what do resourceful brides & bridesmaids do? The round up another hotel guest to help out! Megan was such a beautiful bride…. and I was a huge fan of her dress…. see… the original dress I bought for my own wedding was very similar! Meanwhile… the boys got dressed in all different locations…. Jeremy got dressed at the garden…..

…… My apologies for the long delay between part I & part II of this post, between our vacation and my day job, time has seemed to speed up!  Andrea & Steven celebrated their marriage with their friends and family at 128 South in downtown. It’s a beautiful, intimate venue with spectacular food! The bartender let us know they have plans to expand out the back side of the building, doubling their space.  The STUNNING flowers were done by Bloomers! One of my favorites! Then it was on to the reception! The kids at this wedding kept the party going the whole night! Congratulations! We were so thrilled you had us there to capture this special day 🙂
