Deidre & Eric
Deidre & Eric were married in Charlottesville in a traditional June ceremony at Belmont Baptist Church. Their love for each other was apparent to all, but the moment Eric saw Deidre walk down the aisle, he melted.
The buzz was all about THE DRESS! Deidre found her dream at Annalise Bridal in Richmond, VA. “Berkeley” by Anne Barge is an off-the-shoulder ruched silk satin chiffon bodice and voluminous ball gown. Deidre looked like a princess and some called her a “Southern Belle”. The dress was accented by another Anne Barge piece… the "Rose" belt. This design made for a lot of fun and creativity by the photography team of Dominique Attaway.
Her “something old” was her Mother’s veil and her “something borrowed” were special hairpins from her bridesmaid Alexandra who wore them at her wedding. These adorned her beautiful hairstyle by Moxie Hair Lounge. Some will ask “what about ‘something blue’?” (these were unmentionable).
Full celebrations took place at Glenmore Country Club with an immaculate meal topped off with a luscious cake made by the couple’s friend and pastry chef Morgan Phillips. Colorful florals filled the room thanks to Harris Teeter Florals.
To add to the memories, Big Ray & the Kool Kats kept everyone dancing for the rest of the evening. Deidre twirled like a little girl in her gown and even though she took up a little extra space on the dance floor, that did not stop the bride and groom from having the time of their lives! When we thought there were no more surprises, Eric blew everyone away when he joined the band and played guitar.
The evening ended with “The Last Dance”…a private time for just the bride and groom as their guests waited outside for a sparkler departure to an Albemarle Antique Limousine.
Congratulations Deidre & Eric and keep twirling!
