Amber and Chase’s Greensboro NC wedding was one of the most thought out and intentionally executed weddings I’ve ever had the pleasure of shooting. Every detail was planned to perfection, and lovingly crafted to be sentimental. Everyone who was a part of this wedding had a wonderful time, especially Amber and Chase!
I’ve never imagined that a wedding could be so beautifully detailed. They even chose the details on the wedding mementos specifically to represent loved ones and important parts of their marriage. They chose the cologne they would wear so that they will always have a memory of their wedding when they wore that scent! Amber and Chase tried to make the day as sentimental as possible. They even went out of their way to provide various gifts to their family members and wedding party with embroidered handkerchiefs, among other things.
The getting ready portion of the day was particularly emotional and meaningful. Amber had lost her father recently, and his absence was felt in their preparations. So, she and her mother went out of their way to make sure to honor him as often as possible on this special day. Amber pinned a picture of him to her bouquet so he could still walk her down the aisle in spirit, even while her mother physically provided the escorting. It was particularly moving. Additionally, Amber and her mother requested a photo taken of the two of them in front of a window with her mother holding her veil. This was a recreation of a treasured photograph that her mother has with her mom on her own wedding day. So, it was very poignant to be able to get that for them.
The ceremony was held at St. Pius X in Greensboro NC, and this wedding is memorable. St. Pius X is a worshipful and awe-inspiring space. Amber and Chase intentionally chose it to represent their faith. The flowers were gorgeous and brought color and life to the entire ceremony. Amber had designed the flowers to have a garden theme, which would tie into their reception site later on. It did, however, threaten to rain several times throughout the day. But, the worst that happened was some light overcast. Things just went so well for them!
After the ceremony, it was a wonderful time for pictures with family and the wedding party, and all the people who meant so much to them.
They traveled from the church to the gardens at Gray Gables in Summerfield NC for the reception. The travel arrangements were provided by Triad Trolleys, which was truly enjoyable for everyone! Once everyone was at the gardens, the guests and party enjoyed a cocktail hour with live music, while Amber and Chase got to take more pictures. All their photos revealed how much they loved each other and they were so fun to work with.
Then, after a fun entrance, dinner and first dances, they opened up the dance floor for everyone. It became the most lively celebration I’ve seen in several years and a smile never left my face! Everyone was dancing and partying! Towards the end of the night, glow-sticks came out! It was a memorable night!
I was so appreciative to Chase and Amber because they treated me like I was a part of their celebration. They are wonderful soulmates and so welcoming and kind, who not only went out of their way to make sure that everything was taken care of for their Greensboro wedding and all the details managed, but that everyone felt comfortable during it, even me.
It was certainly a wedding I will remember and cherish for a long time, so I’m thankful for the opportunities to photograph couples such as these!
Amber and Chase, thank you so much for letting me take pictures at your beautiful wedding! May your marriage be even more beautiful!
