Editorial Shoot At The McCune Mansion

This shoot will absolutely take your breath away.

So take a deep breath.

Are you ready?

Just remember to keep breathing while reading.

When Jessica from Jessica Kettle Photography and Val from Flower Afternoon

came to ask us and asked if we would like to style their model for a shoot,

how could we say no?

They are some of the best in the business and you can see why.

The combination of the flowers, our gowns and the background of the

always gorgeous McCune Mansion is enough

to make your head spin.

Oh yeah, there's more.

And these are just a few of our favorites!

Alright.

Check your pulse to make sure you're ok.

Lis Simon

The Brides' Shop is excited to introduce Lis Simon. This phenomenal line grabbed our attention at bridal market and we knew instantly that we needed this designer in our shop. Lis Simon offers intricate, unique designs and customization to all gowns. The fabrics used are delicate and sweet! Choosing a favorite proves to be quite the challenge. Are you up for it?

Kindra

Kindra is wearing a metallic gold lace gown by Justin Alexander. The dress is soft and romantic with a touch of glamour. To highlight Kindra's amazing collar bone, our in house alterations changed the neckline into a deep sweetheart. We love Kindra's choice in keeping accessories simple, the addition of a pretty little necklace is all this dress needs. Not to mention her gorgeous hair which completes this beautiful look.

Just a preview...

I'm eager to share Amanda's wedding day with all of you! She sent me this photo just days after the wedding, so here is a little preview to get you excited to see the rest...

Kendra Sorenson

 

Kendra fell in love with a very vintage and timeless Pronovias gown. It fit her figure so well and I think the pictures turned out beautifully. We were able to select a few of our favorites to share with you.

We send our best wishes to the happy couple!

Megan Corrent

Megan lit up our little shop when she came in. Her parents were equally as darling as she was, and I knew she would have to have a very special gown. She fell in love with this beautiful raw silk gown by Angelina Faccenda. She made it her own by using a belt to create a really ornate flower piece on the side. Look at the pictures  below and see how well the raw silk photographs. Thanks Megan!

Congrats Megan!!!

Jen Rapp

I don't know of a gown that has photographed better than this one. Jen Rapp looked timeless in her Enzoani lace gown! I was thrilled to received her pictures so I could share them with you. Make sure you see the incredible boots she got before even purchasing her gown. They couldn't have fit together any better. This is the email she sent us along with the pictures.


I am sorry it has taken so long to send you some pictures from my wedding August 13th in Valle Crucis, NC. I couldn't decide on which pictures I liked the best so I sent several, my guess is most brides have that problem :)

I also want to thank you and everyone else at The Bride's Shop for helping me find my perfect dress. The wedding was smooth and easy and that really did start with the experience I had with you when I bought my dress. The alterations were minimal, but Oksana was flexible and wonderful to work with as well. It's too bad this only happens once because it was the best/ most fun day of my life! I wish I could wear my dress again and again- it was actually comfortable!

Thank you again so much and I will certainly tell all my single friends where to go when their big day arrives :)

Jen Rapp

Congrats Jen! We wish you the best!

Two People to Remember

I have to not only feature my one-of-a-kind, hilarious and stunning bride Brooklyn, but also one of the most miraculous and phenomenal photographers I've seen, the one, the only - David Newkirk.

When Brooklyn walked through the door with her entire posse I automatically fell in love. So much laughter and love. Brooklyn had such good taste, but had a difficult time choosing between two gowns she loved. (I still continue to tell her she made the right choice, although she's aware.) I knew with such a special bride it would be quite the wedding and I knew I would have to see pictures. I was more than ecstatic when I found out that Brooklyn's photographer was my absolute favorite! Previous to the wedding I actually got to meet David and be a part of his work. I am not one to advertise, but friend to friend I am telling you he is who you want to capture your big day. Here is David's website and be sure to check the link to his blog as well, www.davidnewkirk.com. Please, don't take my word for it. David emailed me some pictures of Brooklyn and Tim's wedding so you can see the magic for yourself! Love and adore you both! 

 I couldn't resist putting this one in. The genuine excitement on her face was too perfect!

 Recently David told me, most photographers hate the sun, but it's his best friend. How amazing are the two shots below?

Love this!

Her beautiful Pronovias gown photographs so well.

Congrats Brooklyn and Tim!
