Katie & Ben
This wedding was super special because these were dear friends of ours. Katie is the daughter of one of my best friends and pastors.
Katie wanted a very glamorous wedding. She wanted to use Black, Ivory and touches of deep red. The moms and bridesmaids were gorgeous in black.
Katie’s bouquet was done in deep red roses in a teardrop cascade.
Her bridesmaids carried clusters of ivory roses.
We wanted to do something very unique and beautiful for this couple’s ceremony since this aspect of the wedding was a very special and spiritual component to the whole day.
We used a custom backdrop that we built that stood 12 feet tall and 8 feet wide. We covered it with ivory Dupioni silk and stretched ivory satin ribbon across to create a harlequin pattern. We installed 7 shelves to put flowers and floating candles on.
The moms entered to “Somewhere over the Rainbow” and the bridesmaids entered to “Going to the Chapel”. The recessional was “This Will Be”.
The reception was in the church gymnasium. That is always a very challenging environment to make beautiful, but I think we did it and did it well!
