A Chapel Hill, NC Winter Wedding at The Carolina Club

"This beautiful couple loved the traditional and formal feeling of weddings that they attended together so were inspired to keep their wedding day that way. A winter wedding with romantic greenery and white flowers, Olivia planned out every detail, down to the watercolor calligraphy technique she learned to address her envelopes and create place cards.

The DIY-ing continued right up until the eve of the wedding with Olivia, her mom and sisters creating signs for the reception. This turned into one of many fond memories she has of the weekend. Chip and Olivia’s big day did not go entirely as planned with the couple waking up to 6 inches of snow on the ground, which in the south means the world stops! Some of their guests were not able to make it to their big day but luckily several of them made the trek to celebrate."

3 Tips for Booking A Destination Wedding Photographer

Sponsored with love by Duccio Argentini Photography

Destination weddings are becoming more and more a thing and while more brides are asking me for destination wedding tips, I figured this would be the perfect opportunity to share some of my tips for booking a destination wedding photographer, while sharing some of the gorgeous work of Duccio Argentini Photography, an Italy-based wedding photographer.

1. Language

Of course, loving their work is one thing but actually being able to easily communicate with your photographer on your wedding day is imperative. You'll be with them all day and you'll want to be able to communicate the photos you want so nothing is missed. Schedule a Skype or FaceTime session or even a phone call with your destination wedding photographer before booking them for your wedding day to ensure communication and language won't be an issue.

2. Photography Style

There are so many styles of photography out there from vibrant colors to muted, warm or cool tones, posed or spontaneous...and the list goes on. No one style is better than another -- the best style is the style YOU love.

Browse not one wedding, but many of their weddings. Browse full wedding features to ensure you love the variety they have to offer. And most of all, make sure you love their work.

3. Referrals

Ask for bride referrals and ask for vendor references and talk to as many people as you can to ensure you're booking someone reliable. If someone has 100 amazing reviews, then most likely, you've found a good one.
