Here’s to a fun weekend of outdoor activities, mint julep drinking and all around Southern-ness See you Monday!

I love seeing our very own, fabulous Carolina wedding vendors get recognized on a national scale. Today, the fabulous team of Cunningham Photo Artists, Ivy Robinson weddings & events, The Wow Factor Cakes, Hayden Olivia Bridal and Swanky Bride just to name a few, were featured in a Style Me Pretty Inspiration to Reality feature.
Head over to SMP for all the details but here are just some of the swanky pink and black features.
And because I can never get enough of Modern Trousseau’s amazing designs, here is a feature shot of the dress used in this shoot. So glam, I love it!!
After originally publishing this gorgeous real wedding series in September 2009, the lovely bride Maggie informed us that her event would be published in an upcoming issue of Brides Magazine. Yay for Maggie & Trevor! But sad for White Thread as we had to remove the post from our archives so as to not upset the powers that be at Brides.
We gladly obliged knowing we’d be able to push the “publish” button once again after the issue hit news stands…which it did this weekend. See a sneak peak on Maggie’s own blog The Freckled Citizen.

If you’ve been following along today, you know I am head over heels for Maggie & Trevor’s red, white and blue Outer Banks wedding. So full of chic, thoughtful details and personal style, one post just wouldn’t do (see vol. 1 and vol. 2).
Their reception was all about the details. That gorgeous color palette, perfectly coordinated (yet not matchy) DIY floral vessels and votives, custom table linens…the list literally goes on and on!
Maybe my favorite details of this whole wedding (and believe me it’s REALLY hard for me to pick just one), are these hilarious table signs designed by Maggie to complement the wedding invitations. In keeping with their election theme, each table was named after a political figure, with guests seated accordingly. WOW!
What an incredible day this has been at White Tread!! I can’t get over how perfectly Julie Dreelin, the photographer behind this amazing day, captured every detail.
A great, big THANK YOU to Maggie & Trevor for letting us share in their day! If you have any questions on vendors, sources, or just need to see more (yes more!) check out Eat, Drink, Marry where Maggie chronicled every element of their planning. And then visit her at her fun newlywed blog The Freckled Citizen!

Today we’re getting a look at Maggie & Trevor’s election themed Outer Banks wedding. If you missed the first post, you’ve got some catching up to do!
As promised, I wanted to give you a close up look at that incredible ceremony setting. I am loving the dreamy and ethereal yet fun and whimsical vibe here. And would you believe Maggie’s mom handcrafted ALL of those fabric pomanders? Um…Etsy shop anyone?
Up next, the reception and all of its glorious and meticulously coordinated details. Until then, here’s a sneak peak!

Oh Happy Day!!! It’s Friday, the lovely fall weather has finally arrived in the Carolinas and I couldn’t be more excited to share today’s Real Wedding! Yesterday we got an up close look at Maggie & Trevor’s amazing wedding invitation suite designed by Amy Beth Cupp Dragoo of ABCD Designs Bespoke Stationery, inc.
Even better, today we get to see the GORGEOUS Outer Banks wedding that followed, captured in all it’s breathtaking detail by Julie Dreelin of Beach Productions. To say it is packed full of eye-popping and completely inspiring details is perhaps the understatement of the year.
I’ll be hanging all day with Maggie & Trevor’s wedding so stay with me! There was way too much awesomeness to be contained in a single post.
The Sanderling Resort in Duck, NC was the backdrop for all the festivities. Maggie kept every detail true to their red, white and blue color scheme including J.Crew bridesmaid dresses in Atlantic blue and lush red florals by Blooms Design Studio. And how much do you love Trevor’s seersucker suit and red & white gingham pocket square? Too much!!!
Vows were exchanged on the Sanderling’s ocean-side deck. Sitting just behind the dunes with the ocean in the distance, it is truly a magical setting…made only more magical by this incredible ceremony set up!
I know you’re dying to see more and you won’t be disappointed. Back in a bit with some to-die-for ceremony images, including more details on those adorable pomanders.
