Hope & Mike's Vintage Wedding ~ Augusta Wedding Photographer

My first wedding post in 2012 is from a wedding I second shot in Augusta this past August. Hope and Mike had a vintage inspired wedding with lots of details. This post mostly captures a lot of those details to give future vintage brides some ideas. I love how Hope included a different design at each table at her reception. She also baked a lot of the yummy goodness at the gorgeous dessert table.


Best part of the bridesmaid dresses shot... the lovely hangers! adds a finishing touch and a pop of color. Great gift idea for your bridesmaids! And I love the brides custom hanger with her new last name!




Hope's beautiful lace dress adds to the over all vintage theme.

The Brides bouquet was wrapped with lace and twine...detailed perfection!




Not all Southern Brides choose to do a first look because it goes against tradition and the South is ALL About tradition!! However, Hope was sooo nervous she decided to do one last minute. I love being able to witness these. They were both teared up and just so happy to see each other on their big day! Their reception was held at Marbury Center.



I'm in love with this little tea pot!

I like how Hope personalized the tables with their initials. Look how creative this display of her wedding invitations is!

Brides always ask why should they do a bridal session... below is a fabulous example! Hope used one of her bridal session photographs as a table display!
This is one of the best dessert tables I have seen... the his/hers chalkboards are adorable. And knowing she made a lot of the desserts makes it even better!





They had a great cake smashing... don't see these much anymore!





So excited for 2012 weddings!! I've heard the trend will be moving away from vintage to more "classical" wedding themes! We shall see!
