I'm so honored to be featured on Style Me Pretty today! Working with A Southern Soiree, as always, was a complete joy. Their team never misses a beat, and they provide an amazing service to every bride in their attention to detail and ease of planning. I also have to say that Erin and Jon, the adorable bride and groom, were some of the most heartfelt, kind people I've ever worked with. I felt like I was part of their family by the end of the day, and their sweet mom (who sent me this gift recently) put several personal touches on their wedding day herself.

Thank you so much to Style Me Pretty for featuring Erin and Jon's beautiful wedding! Click here to see the feature. And be sure to go leave a comment on their lovely site!

    So honored to be published on Martha Stewart! We had a dream of a couple to work with, and a dream team of wedding professionals working on this fabulous wedding. In my first call with Kendra, before she even hired us to assist with her wedding, I could tell her love of all things “Martha” style. How amazing to see all the pieces come together beautifully, and now published here!

    Thank you to Shira and the Martha Stewart Team along with all the wedding pros that worked on this wedding! And most of all to Kendra and Jeff …you truly were a dream!

Redtree Albums

Business + Press ~ 5 comments

I have long searched for an album company that represents my brand well. I wanted each album to feel like, to look like, to be an heirloom. I wanted  to offer my brides linen fabric covers, along with the option for leather. I wanted each album to be personalized, with cameo pictures or writing on the front, with different options for sizing and fonts. And I am so happy to say I have found all of that in more with Redtree Albums.

My brand is based on simplicity, legacy, and quality. I want my brides to feel that when they read my blog, see their images, and feel the products I offer. You'll see simply by looking at these photos how Redtree albums speak of each! Simplicity in form and design; legacy in their personalization, texture, and feel; quality in their color, binding, and durable pages.

I adore these albums. In fact, I want one for myself!  In today's digital world, we need not lose sight of the importance of such an heirloom!

    These are beautiful. I never did get an album ordered after my wedding as it was not part of the package I ordered from my photographer (not you). I would love to have one but it seems most photographers wont touch others work (dont want to go back to them) so I would have to do it myself. Unfortunately, Redtree only takes orders from photographers. Drat and they were so pretty too.

    I totally agree, Nancy, that an heirloom like this album is such a treasure. I just had some family portraits taken with my sweet 82 year old dad and they will be going into an album. I really hope to get one as nice as this one! I just love how important tradition and simpicity is to you. A gal after my own heart!

  3. Becky April 25, 2013 7:32 am

    Those are absolutely gorgeous!

  4. Bumby May 2, 2013 5:04 pm

    I think you just convinced me to try them out!!!

  5. Janine May 10, 2013 7:55 pm

    Catching up on your blog and came across this post with our wedding pictures! Yay! The album is stunning, Nancy!! I simply will have to save up now and order one for our two year wedding anniversary. :)

There have been a few of my images hidden in the pages Southern Weddings Magazine that I've been wanting to share for some time now. I always am enchanted by their image selection, and curious to know what really captures their eye. (Mrs. Emily definitely has a gift for image selection!) Look for the light green arrows below to spot my images. Also, I am grateful to have captured the entire Southern Weddings Team at a quaint chapel and a beautiful home in rural North Carolina - the perfect setting for these Southern belles!
