Recently, I had the pleasure of planning an uber-detailed Green Garden Wedding for David & Emma, who are such a dynamic couple! The event was deemed an 'Upscale Garden Potluck' and this adorable couple had very specific ideas of exactly the style and ambiance they wanted to create, which was so fun to work with.
The wedding palate consisted of many colors found in nature: poppy red, tangerine orange, daffodil yellow, lime green, and chocolate brown. We used tons of fresh fruit everywhere from the aisle decor to the centerpieces to featuring gorgeous cranberries as the champagne glass garnish. All of the leftover fruit was promptly donated to a food shelter. We used organic catering featuring fresh green & vegetable salads, fresh herbs as decor, & many different serving bowls & platters rather than a long line of chafing dishes, to bring in the less formal garden pot luck theme.
Birds' nests of all sizes and shapes, along with bird cages were used for the centerpieces and gift card holders, and finally - one of the most fun details, in my humble opinion, was naming the tables after different garden vegetables (Sassafrass, Pole Beans, Artichoke, etc.). But we'll feature more of those delicious details in the next few days' posts.
First, I want to share the most adorable engagement photos. Emma & David were a 'long distance' bride & groom, as they live in Colorado, but got married here in Phoenix. So, these photos are from Artisan Foto in Boulder, and I must say, I'm in love with them! They capture David & Emma's personalities and style perfectly. Enjoy and come back tomorrow for wedding photos!
