Douglas Ellington House Weddings, a Collection
LOCATION
Asheville, NC
The Douglas Ellington House is one of the most distinct wedding venues in Asheville. I’ve photographed several weddings there over the years and every one has felt very much its own.
The house already has a lot of character yet the personal touches still come through for each couple. I gathered a few Douglas Ellington House weddings here so you can see how the venue photographs across different seasons and celebrations, along with my mostly documentary approach to photographing the day as it naturally unfolds.
Lily & Scott
This intimate wedding at Douglas Ellington House was filled with handmade details and vintage touches. Lily wore her mother’s 1994 wedding dress, she hand-painted the plates for every guest, designed and painted the invitations herself and even sewed the table runner. Sustainable florals and a gently coordinated color palette for guests created a colorful, joyful atmosphere.
Lily & Jared
Autumn wedding with sweet family moments like dad playing guitar at the ceremony and cutting the cake by a photo of her grandparents cutting their cake!
Meredith & Joshua
An October moody, unorthodox wedding with an emotional first look and candlelit family style feast. The
Morgan & Ridge
Elegant winter wedding with glimpses of Christmas cheer at the historic Douglas Ellington House. Winter weddings are less common here in the mountains but I find them to be romantic. Sweet moments with these tight knit families coming together.
