Casey and Elliot: Cary, N.C.

I'm so excited to share images today of a beautiful fall wedding Shawn and Michelle did last October. The bride's family has known Michelle since Casey, the bride, was a little girl, so it was a natural choice for Casey to choose Your Special Day Weddings and Special Events when planning her wedding with Elliot. All the photos you will see here were taken by Tammy of Tammy Wingo Photography!

Casey chose shades of purple for her wedding colors. The gorgeous bouquets and lush centerpieces were designed by Shelley at Expressions of Love.



Casey and Elliot were married at Casey's home church, Apex United Methodist Church, only a few minutes from their reception venue. The designers at The Green Kangaroo designed these pretty programs!
 
 
The reception venue was very special for Casey and Elliot. They chose MacGregor Downs Country Club in Cary because this is where Casey's parents were married years before! It provided the perfect backdrop for their indoor/outdoor affair. The ballroom in the country club hosted the cocktail hour, bar and cake cutting, while the tent outside allowed guests to enjoy the crisp fall weather for dinner and dancing. Classic Party Rentals and CE Rentals helped us dress up both areas.

 

This stunning three-tiered cake was made by Cinda's Creative Cakes!

 
  
 
The lighting inside the couple's tent gave the space an exclusive and romantic ambiance for the night thanks to our friend Jeff at Simpsound Productions. Guests enjoyed jazz music during the dinner hour from DJ Randy Pulley, who progressively pulled the energy level up as the night went on.
 

One big surprise during the evening came dressed in a gorilla costume! Now wouldn't you like to know the story behind that??


Casey shared a sweet goodbye with her mom as she and Elliot took their sparkler-lit exit walk! Congratulations Casey and Elliot! You were a joy to work with!
