Historic Mordecai Raleigh Wedding

Historic Mordecai Raleigh Wedding.

Kurt and Madelyn planned a beautiful intimate spring wedding in Raleigh's stunning historic Mordecai district.  They got ready at the charming Oakwood Inn, a beautifully restored home on Raleigh's historic registry.  They shared a sweet first look on the front lawn before we headed over to St. Mark's Chapel in Historic Mordecai Park for their ceremony.  St. Mark's is the sweetest little white chapel.  Original aged pews and floors with a vaulted ceiling, a gorgeous backdrop for the couple to exchange their vows.  Kurt + Madelyn invited their closest friends and family and kept their guest list at 20 people so that they could have a relaxed low stress day.   It was absolutely perfect!  After the ceremony we snuck them away to the park's gorgeous gardens for portraits.  They spent the afternoon on the grounds eating cake, sharing in laughter,  and playing lawn games with their friends and family.  It was a beautiful way to break tradition and spend their wedding day exactly how they wanted!
