A Gorgeous September Wedding at The Upchurch in Cary, North Carolina

As a wedding photographer based in the Raleigh area, I’ve had the privilege of capturing some truly breathtaking moments at weddings all over North Carolina. But there’s something extra special about a fall wedding, especially one as stunning as this September celebration at The Upchurch in Cary. From the moment I arrived, I knew this would be a wedding to remember!

The Upchurch: A Dreamy Outdoor Wedding Venue in Cary

Nestled in the heart of Cary, The Upchurch is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and elegance. The venue’s expansive outdoor space created a picturesque setting for this couple’s nuptials. With an intimate, lush backdrop, it was easy to see why they chose this location for their big day.

The couple exchanged vows beneath a gorgeous floral arch designed by the talented florists at Once Gathered. The vibrant yet soft tones of the flowers perfectly complemented the couple’s blue and white color scheme, making every photo feel like a piece of art. It was the ideal combination for a September wedding in North Carolina – warm, inviting, and timeless.

Floral Details That Took My Breath Away

As a photographer, I love when the floral design adds that extra touch of magic to the wedding day. The florals at this wedding, crafted by Once Gathered, were nothing short of spectacular. The floral arch provided a stunning backdrop for the ceremony, while the floral chandelier in the reception area was a true statement piece. These delicate yet dramatic details added layers of beauty to the day and made for unforgettable photos.

A Blue & White Color Palette: Timeless and Elegant

The couple’s color scheme of blue and white was a classic and elegant choice for a September wedding. These colors complemented the natural beauty of the venue while adding a sense of sophistication to every aspect of the wedding. From the bridesmaids’ dresses to the table settings, the blue and white palette was carried throughout the day, creating a cohesive and polished look that came together perfectly in every shot.

Kast Events & Co: The Wedding Planners Who Made it All Happen

Behind every beautiful wedding is a talented team of vendors, and this wedding was no exception. Kast & Co did an incredible job designing and planning the event, ensuring that every detail came together seamlessly. Their expertise truly showed in how the day unfolded – from the smooth flow of the ceremony to the carefully curated reception. As a wedding photographer, it’s always a joy to work with planners who pay attention to every little detail, making my job easier and helping me capture those picture-perfect moments.

A Unique Touch: The Vita Mielie Champagne Cart

One of the highlights of the cocktail hour was the Vita Mielie Champagne Cart. This unique addition was the perfect way to greet guests as they arrived and set the tone for the celebratory atmosphere. It was a fun and memorable way to kick off the evening, and the elegant cart made for some lovely candid shots that perfectly encapsulated the joy of the day.
