Real Wedding: Laura & Colin

Today's charming Midwestern wedding feels like summer, with a rustic, woodsy camp vibe that I love. Laura (an event planner out of Minnesota) and Colin chose this private lodge in northern Wisconsin for their Friday wedding not just because of it's beautiful location, but also because the bride's family has rented it out every summer for 50 years. Photos by Jennifer Cress.






Laura tied vintage floral fabric on the wedding programs.








Colin is a professional brewer (beer maker, not baseball player), so he made his own beer to serve on-tap and in bottles for guests to take home.


Both the bride's bouquet and the groom's boutonniere incorporated barley hops, a nod to the groom's profession. Laura's dress was a cocktail dress purchased off the rack and lined with an ivory slip.


A hand-drawn map directed guests to lawn games (like horseshoes), canoe rides, a cigar cabin, and firepit.







Venue: private lodge in Brule River, Wisconsin

Bride's dress / shoes: Off 5th / My Glass Slipper

Groom's suit: Nordstrom

Flowers: A Day in Provence

Stationery: Lunalux

Thank you to Laura and Colin, and thank you to Jennifer Cress for sending over the photos of their lovely wedding!

Board #496: Secret Garden, Revisited

Gambar
One of the very first inspiration boards I ever posted was inspired by The Secret Garden, and when I saw this post over on Dress Design Decor a couple of weeks ago, I immediately wanted to revisit the theme (and hopefully improve upon it). Faded blue, vintage keys, overgrown vines, and romantic stationery pull the look together, while a chandelier hung in a tree, a unique candelabra, and paisley printed linens add something unexpected. Mood: romantic, storybook Palette: faded powder blue, pale garden green, white {click image to enlarge} Top row from left: secret garden door via Dress Design Decor , chandelier from Brides , faded blue door via Dress Design Decor , ring bearer ensemble by Marie-Chantal via Brides UK Row 2: photo of weather vane candelabra by Elizabeth Messina , springerle cookie cake from Martha Stewart , botanical RSVP card by Austin Press Row 3: white wine and vintage wine glasses via Style Me Pretty , vintage key via Dress Design Decor , vine save-the-date by Aust...

Happy Weekend!

I blinked and now it's July - how did that happen!? I have a little counter on my Google homepage that tells me how many days until our wedding (yes, yes, I'm a big nerd), and I just can't believe how quickly the time is flying by. Our 4th of July plans are as yet unformed, but I think they should involve patriotic desserts and sparklers. What about you? If you haven't already left for the holiday, then here are some links to take you into the weekend. {via We Heart It } Loving manila . This is why I'll never be an adult , via Lovely Morning .
