A Bright and Colorful Day for a Wedding

This wedding is just filled with beautiful people and colors! I love the variety of hues they chose for the palette. The bouquets were filled with orange, plum, pink, yellow, and green flowers, and despite this randomness it looked nice matched with our bride’s elegant gown. The centerpieces was the perfect pop for the simple table arrangement. Even the guys wore colorful accessories (boutonnieres and ties).What added more personality to the wedding is the entourage themselves too – doing some silly and sweet poses with our couple, they made the day feel light and jolly. Congratulations on such a beautiful wedding Brielle & John!

Was there any Do it Yourself (DIY) projects? If so, can you describe them in detail?

The centerpieces and favors were all handmade my the groom’s mother. The favors included a “message in a bottle” thanking the guests for sharing in the special day. The groom’s mother also made an alternative “letter in a jar” guest book where guests wrote notes to the bride and groom and placed them in a large mason jar to be opened and read on their one year anniversary.
