The innocence of mint and the royalty of gold are the perfect color combination choice of Kara and Nick. The best thing about their wedding is that their friends helped them put up some of the DIY decorations that achieved the lofty and tranquil feel the couple wanted — perfect for a more personal and whimsical touch. Almost every decoration are all custom made only for K and N’s union. We are all happy both of you are each other’s best fish in the sea! Have a happy married life, you two!
The Theme
I just wanted it to be classy but fun!
Wedding Outfit Inspiration
With it being a summer wedding I wanted something soft and airy, so I chose a mint flow-y dress. Plus I love the color green and mint falls into that category.
Our Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Projects
Oh man at the DIY-the aisle pieces were old brass lamps I painted gold and had a friend put flowers on. The table numbers were made of craft paper, a cricut, and wooden frames I found at Michael’s that were stained. Several of the decorations were spray painted with mint or gold. All the lawn games were handmade by myself and my husband, Nick.
Favorite Part of the Day
Oh do I just have to pick one?! Well, I can dwindle it down to two.
- Seeing my husband for the first time and us reading our vows.
- Having my grandfather walk me down the aisle and dancing with me!
Highlights from the Ceremony and the Reception
Highlights from the ceremony were seeing everyone’s faces as I walked down the stairs and then suddenly seeing Nick’s face. Our vows were pretty amazing, and make me smile every time I think of them. Highlights from the reception were all the fun music and dancing. We wanted a wonderful party and that’s what we got!!
A Memorable Moment
I loved the emotion that I was able to capture for Nick and Kara on their lovely wedding day. Their family and friends were so happy for them. The love they have for one another is true and it shines so brightly. It makes my heart full and happy to get to document these special moments!
