Mary and James: Southern Wedding with Asian Flair {Opelika, Ala}

Today I have a treat for you. Mary and James are about the cutest couple you have ever seen. Totally in love and thrilled to be getting married. It was a total pleasure to work with them as their wedding planner.

They had a sweet ceremony at Mary’s mother’s house and then held a large reception at the new Event Center Downtown in Opelika, Ala. Mary hired Clay Mitchell at Opelika Floral Company to help incorporate James’ Japanese heritage into the floral decor. If I can gush for just a bit, Clay hit it out of the park. The flowers were perfect. Oranges and purples were used to create a gorgeous motif. The Event Center’s exposed brick and warehouse feel let the decor take center stage. Japanese lanterns were hung and specialty lighting added to create the right feel. It was gorgeous.

Please enjoy the photography of the lovely Erika from Kim Box Photography. She did a wonderful job capturing this beautiful couple and wonderful wedding. Congrats to Mary and James!!! I had a blast getting to know you. Your wedding was amazing!
