Understated yet undeniably striking, the bride’s gown from Lovely Bride embodied modern elegance with a nod to timeless bridal fashion. The clean neckline and minimalist design allowed the bride’s beauty to take center stage.

The bridesmaids stunned in sage satin gowns from Birdie Grey, bringing a fresh, modern palette to the wedding party’s look. The sage tone was carried throughout the wedding day, bringing the garden wedding aesthetic from the lush gardens of Marie Gabrielle into the church for the ceremony!

[field title=”Food & Drink”]

The bride and groom selected a plated Meal with a choice of Pan Seared Salmon + Mustard Beurre Blanc or a Block Cut NY Strip + Chimichurri, both served with Charred Broccolini with Citrus and Parmesan and Savory Bread Pudding with Pancetta, Gruyere, and Rosemary. A Spicy Paloma served as their signature drink, named after their cat, Magnolia.

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]

The Bride wanted the florals to be true to the garden surroundings. The arrangements were meadow-like, soft but structured, and in hues of soft, romantic pastels.

[field title=”Wedding Cake”]

The cake was a traditional design with pops of coordinating floral, including the Bride’s favorite, hydrangea.

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]

During the design process, the direction shifted from a more modern coastal aesthetic to a fairytale garden feel when the Bride fell in love with the Castille Rain linen from BBJ LaTavola. The bride & wedding planner, Corinne of Social Graces, took the unique arabesque pattern and used it throughout the wedding day, including on the custom seating chart wall and dance floor.
