Asheville, North Carolina – Known for its stunning scenery and vibrant downtown, Asheville is a perfect backdrop for a wedding celebration. We captured this magic in a recent styled shoot, featuring the lovely couple, Juliette and Keevon, showcasing the city’s charm and modern elegance.
Finding the Perfect Look: Dresses & Tuxes
Juliette’s wedding day style was all about finding the perfect blend of classic elegance and modern flair. We found two incredible dresses for her at Wedding Inspirations Bridal Boutique. The first was a dreamy wedding gown with a flowing train that fit like a glove, making her feel like a true princess. For the reception, Juliette wanted something a bit more playful and opted for a beaded, fringed dress that was a stylish nod to the roaring twenties. It was a perfect way to capture the spirit of the evening and keep the party going!
Keevon, on the other hand, exuded classic charm. We found the ideal black and white tuxedo for him at Mitchell’s Tuxedos. Kathy, the store’s expert stylist, knew just what would look best on him, and he looked absolutely dapper. There’s something undeniably handsome about a man in a tuxedo! For the reception, we kept the look simple and removed the bow tie for a more relaxed vibe.
A Touch of Old Hollywood Glamour
To elevate the shoot’s aesthetic, we incorporated a 1955 Bel Air classic car – a true symbol of vintage Hollywood glamour. Burrell Vintage Cars brought the car right to the hotel, and it instantly transformed the scene. We couldn’t resist snapping photos with this breathtaking beauty, and the pictures turned out incredible. If you’re looking for a way to add a unique touch to your wedding photos, a classic car is a fantastic option!
The Renaissance Hotel: A Dream Destination
The Renaissance Hotel was the perfect setting for our styled shoot. With its chic lobby and breathtaking views from the top floor, it offered a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere. It’s also an ideal choice for couples with out-of-town guests, as it provides all the amenities needed for a seamless wedding experience. From the rehearsal dinner to the wedding ceremony and reception, everything can be conveniently held in one location.
The hotel’s dog-friendly policy is a major bonus, making it a fantastic destination for dog lovers. It’s truly a one-stop shop for all your wedding needs, allowing you to enjoy every moment of the celebration without having to worry about travel or logistics. As a local photographer, I can personally attest to the convenience and peace of mind that a hotel wedding offers!
A Celebration of Love and Style
Our styled shoot captured the essence of a modern, stylish wedding in Asheville. From tender moments overlooking the sunset to edgy portraits against a backdrop of luxurious furniture, Juliette and Keevon effortlessly embodied the spirit of the day.
A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this magical shoot – the talented vendors, the creative team, and most importantly, Juliette and Keevon. Your passion and creativity shone through, and we know this shoot will be a hard one to beat!
