BIG LIST of Boone Wedding Vendors | NC Photographer Wayfaring Wanderer

As a wedding photographer you wouldn't think that I do much to assist my couples in helping them plan other parts of their wedding day, but I like to make myself as useful as possible, so I do everything I can to offer guidance along the way.

The majority of the couples that I work with aren't Boone, NC locals, so it’s a little bit more challenging for them to get the information they need to help plan their wedding.

While there are some great wedding planning resources out there that can point you in the right direction, like the ACES website (Association of Consultant & Event Services) and the High Country Wedding Guide, I still prefer to recommend the wedding vendors that I've worked with personally because I want to promote the folks that I can recommend firsthand.

Magical things happen when you get an awesome group of wedding vendors together which is why this list exists!

Over the last few years that I've been an NC-based wedding photographer, I've had the opportunity to work with some of the most talented folks in the wedding industry up here in the High Country. While this is not an extensive list of all that there is to offer up here in Boone (and beyond), these wedding vendors are the ones that I've had the pleasure of working with and highly recommend!

If there's a particular Boone-based wedding vendor that you would like to work with, don’t wait to contact them, because availability is already extremely limited at this point, so booking in advance is definitely suggested.

I've already had to disappoint a number of brides because I no longer have their wedding date available—it makes me sad. Don't wait, get in touch asap!

I’m sure you've seen the slew of engagements happening this year, so either you or someone you know is newly engaged or getting married in 2015/2016. If you know of any friends or family planning a destination wedding in the Boone area that may find this vendor guide useful, please share this link with them! Thank you!
