Jackie & Chase – Hilary Argentieri Photography

With so many new engagements and welcoming 2015 I thought I would share an amazing wedding and some great advice from one of my awesome brides, Jackie!

What was your wedding inspiration for your theme and colors?
I have always known I wanted an elegant wedding. I was going back and forth with different color schemes. When I came across a Mori Lee black, lace bridesmaid dress, I knew that was the one the girls needed to wear! I then made my theme black, white, and pale pink. I loved creating my theme around those colors because they made my vision of elegance come to life!

What was your favorite wedding splurges?
My favorite wedding splurge was the uplighting and monogram light on the dance floor provided by Encore Entertainment. The lighting really set the mood for our wedding, and created a fabulous ambiance! When I walked into Shadow Lake, I saw that my reception was everything I dreamed of!

What was your favorite wedding day moment?
My favorite wedding moment was when Chase and I said our vows. Even though we have been together for seven years, promising to be together forever was the best feeling in the world, and a start of a whole new chapter.

What was your favorite photo form the day?
I love EVERY photo from our wedding day, but two really stick out to me. The first being a candid moment that Hilary captured of Chase and I in the church. We aren’t looking at the camera but you can tell how happy we are, and how much we are enjoying our day. The second being a romantic shot she took by the fountain of Chase and I sharing a kiss. The background and lighting is just amazing. Also, our bridal party played a huge role in our wedding to make it so special, and Hilary did a wonderful job capturing our personalities and friendships in the pictures. We will cherish this photos and memories forever.

Words of wisdom for future brides and grooms?
The biggest piece of advice I have for future brides and grooms is to enjoy every second of being engaged. It is such an exciting time in your life. Have fun planning your wedding and take your time. Most girls dream of your wedding for so long, enjoy the time making all of your dreams and vision of your special day a reality! We could not have asked for anything more for our wedding. It will certainly be a day we will never forget!
