Travis and Bridgette married this past Saturday in Lombard at the Maple Street Chapel and their reception was held at Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont. I loved Bridgette's color palette she chose for her wedding: navy, apple green and ivory. She wanted full and fluffy bouquets and arrangements in which lots of hydrangeas and roses were used to create the look. They had a gorgeous sunny day for a late fall wedding!
I had my first mid-week wedding last week on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving for Adriana and Rob. Adriana's bouquet turned out awesome!! I think it was my favorite bridal bouquet I made this year. She wanted feathers incoorporated in her red, white and black wedding. I added the feathers everywhere, in the bouquets, boutonierres, pew trims, arrangements and floral centerpieces. The other half of her centerpieces I filled cylinders with fresh cranberries and water with a floating candle on top...very appropriate for Thanksgiving time!
Alice and Cole married on Saturday, October 30th in Franklin Park. The ceremony was held at St. Maria Goretti and the reception was at The Center at Park North. She had a fall theme in oranges, yellow and brown. Little pumpkins held the place cards and carmel apples were the favors for the guests, along with a candy table to trick-or-treat at!
Kendra and Ryan's wedding was yesterday at Butterfield Country Club in Oakbrook, their ceremony took place at St. James the Appostle in Glen Ellyn. Ryan has been a friend of my brother's since high school so it was really special that I was able to be part of their big day. Birch was a big accent to the decor throughout the reception. I used birch branches with hanging votives on half of the guest tables while the other half contained short, full floral arrangements set in birch containers that I burnt a heart with their initials in it.. great idea by Kendra! I took birch logs and drilled out holes which then I sunk votive candles in for the head table. The cake was also set up on a slice of a tree stump..it looked awesome!
