Forrest Graham & Matthew Kazee’s Lake Lure wedding was an intimate family affair from the start.  Forrest’s parents graciously headed to the house a month early to prepare, while Matthew’s 2 children from a previous marriage hand drew the drawing on their ceremony programs!  Photos of loved ones since passed were framed & used as decor to honor them.  The lake side wedding had elements of country to it with non-matching vintage cake plates, the bridesmaids in cowboy boots, wildflower feel bouquets.  The groom and groomsmen arrived via a pontoon boat, driving up from Chimney Rock where they were getting ready.  Granted I am a big dog lover as most of you know, but I think my favorite part has to be Samson, the couple’s mega cute pup who ultimately found a comfy spot on Forrest’s dress while she was getting ready!  Our good natured bride took it all in strand!  Of course no lake side North Carolina wedding would be complete without some amazing BBQ & Tea with a kick of Beam!  We’re loving the laid back feel & gorgeous calming water views!
