UNIQUE Wedding: Missy & Mike

Missy & Mike are such a sweet couple, and they wanted a sweet wedding to match! The day began with a delivery from the groom. He sent the bride an array of flowers with a very loving note! Missy definitely a bride that loves her bling, and her dress & accessories really sparkled! Her pink shoes definitely made a statement! The bridesmaids wore peridot green dresses and carried multi-colored Gerber daisies. Since the church was so beautiful, we kept things very simple. For Cocktail Hour, guests were greeted with a pink tree and escort cards with Gerber daisy touches. The reception was filled with colors and candles. There was a large silver lantern on each table with accents of daisies. Instead of using typical clear glass votive holders, small silver cups were used. The silver of the cup reflected the light beautifully, and multiplied it. Pink lighting filled the room, and helped make the environment completely whimsical. Since Missy & Mike's initials are M&M, I'm sure you can guess what the favors were...pink M&M's! And, to keep the sugar rolling, there was a candy station and an ice cream sundae station for all of the guests dive into! Since Mike is Italian, the guests enjoyed a traditional Italian buffet. Their cake was so simple, with an all white design and pink ribbon. The cake table was decorated with lots of candles and daisies, and tall vases of flowers flanked the cake.

Summer Wedding Tips

Summer weddings have a feeling all their own. It's about incorporating color and sunshine! Here are some tips to make your Summer wedding sensational!

Ice cold drinks and snacks are definitely a must! Your guests will appreciate a refreshing treat to offset the Summer heat!







Finding ways to shade yourself is key. Parasols and hats are both great ways to shade yourself and your guests from the beaming sun. And, a great way to look sophisticated and fabulous!





When it comes to flowers, bright colors and interesting combinations are the perfect fit! Just be sure to keep your flowers hydrated so they don't wilt.





A sweaty bride is not pretty, so choosing a hairstyle that keeps your hair pulled back and off your neck will help to keep you cool and comfortable.



When it comes to fashion, your guys will thank you for selecting a light suit as opposed to a dark tuxedo. The lighter color reflects light better. When it comes to your bridal party, bring in lots of color! It looks great in the sunlight!





Summer centerpieces should look effortless and natural. Here is a tablescape with bunches of sunflowers. They are sunny and the simplicity is the perfect compliment to a Summer day.



Happy Planning!
