A North Carolina wedding at Tryon Palace offers a perfect blend of historic charm and natural beauty. Recently, I had the joy of photographing a beautiful spring wedding there. The couple was such a delight—full of laughter and love—which made the day even more special. Coordinated by French Bee Events, the wedding featured a fresh, vibrant color palette of sage, purple, and blush that perfectly matched the lively spirit of the celebration.
The Beauty of Tryon Palace Gardens in Spring
Tryon Palace’s gardens are especially gorgeous in spring. They burst with lush greenery and colorful blooms that create a romantic and elegant backdrop. Furthermore, the historic ambience of the palace, set alongside the peaceful river in New Bern, makes it an ideal location. It’s a wonderful spot for couples looking for a wedding with both charm and character.
Classic Elegance and a Tented Reception with Unique Details
The bride’s gown was stunningly classic—timeless and elegant, perfectly complementing the historic setting. One highlight of this North Carolina wedding was the tented reception, which offered a bright, inviting space for guests to enjoy. In addition, the floral displays were unique and thoughtfully arranged, and the fun linens in sage, purple, and blush brought a cohesive, joyful feel to the reception tables.
The band truly stole the show with an incredible set that had everyone dancing late into the night. Their energy was infectious, adding even more joy to an already unforgettable day.
