Just A Few Pictures

So, as promised...I am going to start adding a lot more pictures as I go along. Since I'm pretty crafty/creative, I've decided to make a lot of the decor for the wedding. So far, I have made quite a bit of stuff...but I have a LOT more to go! I'll have to post more pics on that stuff a bit later...but here are some others:
THE VENUE: Dunes West Golf Club
This is a gorgeous southern, plantation style "home" located on the Dunes West Golf Course.
This is the view of the clubhouse as you are driving up to it through the trees. It's really beautiful in person!
Another front view of the building:
This is the back side of the club
In between the house and that "green wall" is a very large courtyard where our ceremony will take place. I will actually be coming out of my bridal suite on the second floor (left side of the building)...and walk down the spiral staircase on the right side of the building--you can kind of see the staircase next to the tree--and the down the aisle. I really like the idea of this kind of "grand entrance". Let's just hope it doesn't rain that day! :-)
THE CAKE:
We definitely didn't want a simple, traditional wedding cake. It was a little difficult, but we found this picture online and a bakery that can recreate this beautiful "winter" cake for us.
THE PHOTOGRAPHER:
I didn't want our wedding photos to look like your typical cheap "posed" pictures taken with a disposable camera, so this was a bit of a challenge for me. After looking through tons of Charleston photographers, I not only found one who is very reasonably priced, but she also does AMAZING work! She does a lot of editing to the photos: soft focus, color changes, etc., so she was definitely the right choice for us. She will also be creating a wedding album for us, as well as an online photo viewing website for our guests. There are way to many gorgeous photos of her work to post...so check out her website:

OTHERS:
I'm still in the process of booking a DJ, florist and wedding officiant. And the whole lighting company is up in the air right now! The only flowers we are going to have are my bouquet and Kenney's boutonniere. So I basically just need to find a bouquet I like.
We are slowly getting there! 
. When I finish more of the decor I'll post some pictures of them. Let me know what you guys think so far!!
