Claire + Stephen | Wrightsville Manor Wedding

Ok, so picture this: chic couple, classic venue, lots of greenery, SEVEN cakes, and a doughnut wall…it’s the recipe for the perfect wedding!

Claire & Stephen tied the knot at Wrightsville Manor on June 4th, 2017. They exchanged their vows in front of a dreamy arbor full of lush-greenery and beautiful blooms by the always flawless Design Perfection team. ...And OMG, their attire was all your Pinterest dreams in one place! Our stylish bride wore a stunning two-pieced wedding dress, the bridesmaids nailed the mismatched dress trend, and the groom and groomsman rocked their blush pink bowties and suspenders!

The reception began with the announcement of Mr. & Mrs. Stephen and Claire Guentz, followed by sweet dances and a thank you speech from the bride and groom. The guests delighted in a beautiful dinner, courtesy of Milner’s Cafe and Catering. The tables were outfitted with delicate floral arrangements and lots of candles that stood out against the ivory linens, provided by L&L Tent and Party Rentals.

Once dinner was complete, Active DJ Entertainment got the party started! The guests had just enough time to dance off dinner as Claire + Stephen cut one of their cakes and dessert was served. Oh, did you actually think that we were going to forget about dessert?! Well, "doughnut" worry! (HAHA!) The bride and groom had an eye catching doughnut wall provided by DPetc., and a succulent cake table. Donut Inn provided the oh so yummy doughnuts, and six of the seven delicious cakes were made by Phyllis Vaughan. The dainty cutting cake topped with two doughnuts was provided by Whole Foods, completed their beautiful obsession for doughnuts. We can't argue with them on that one. Who doesn't love a good doughnut?!

Later in the evening we began the bouquet toss and the garter toss! One problem though... Nobody could find the garter, so we improvised and made one out of greenery! Just one of many reasons to have a planner/coordinator on your side ...just saying! :) At the end of the night, friends and family gathered outside the venue for a wonderful sparkler send-off to say their good-byes to the new Mr. & Mrs.!
