Wedding Story: Mandi and Adam

Posted in: ,

The weather reports had been looking iffy… and with a wedding that is all outside, this was not good!  Mandi and Adam stayed positive and knew that no matter what, they would be married when the day was done.  The day started out looking ok so Adam and Mandi moved forward with the outdoor plans….

The details were so lovely and well thought out.

Adam’s grandma was so sweet when she saw Mandi all dress up… loved that moment!

There was lots of time to watch guests arrive… in the rain :(

After delaying the ceremony to see if the rain would stop, Adam and Mandi finalyl decided to move forward and have the ceremony in the reception tent.  All their guests were so patient and understanding!

One of Adam’s brothers, Ryan, also sang in our wedding ceremony.  This man has an amazing voice!

MARRIED!

It was slightly misty for some quick shots after the ceremony… at this point I think Mandi and Adam were happy to get some shots outside at all!

It rained all night long and when it was time to give the newly weds a sparkler exit, it was just too rainy…

… but a few people decided to meet them on the front porch with one anyways :)

Adam and Mandi!  I know your wedding day did not turn out exactly how you had planned it, but my goodness, it still turned out pretty darn good!  It was still a beautiful day where you were surrounded by a ton of people who adore you. Sounds good to me!

Raleigh Story: NCMA Art Auction

Raleigh Story Project #5: Art of the Auction, NCMA

The NC Museum of Art has tons of events throughout the year that are awesome and the Art of the Auction seems to be at the core of that to me.  I forget how the museum runs on some government assistance but mainly from private donation.  The “Art of the Auction” event gives local artists the opportunity to donate their art work to the museum to raise money for the museum.  This in turn raises awareness for those artists and the work that they do.  There were many different mediums on display and SEVERAL pieces that I loved!
