Styled Shoot at The Duke Mansion

I can't believe I almost forgot to blog this gorgeous styled shoot at The Duke Mansion! It was a what dreams are made of, the venue at The Duke Mansion is nestled in historic area of Charlotte, NC with sprawling historic homes, tree lined streets and perfectly manicured lawns. Here are a few facts about the mansion written on their website "Built in 1915 and tripled by its most famous owner James Buchanan Duke, The Duke Mansion has been home and host to leaders of the 20th century. Duke’s most lasting legacies, including Duke University, Duke Energy and the Duke Endowment, took shape at the home. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Mansion is operated as a nonprofit with all proceeds being used to preserve and protect this community treasure." Couples that are planning an upcoming wedding in the North Carolina area and are looking for a classic southern venue with charm and attention to detail, then The Duke Mansion is worth considering for your wedding celebration!
