We had so much fun collaborating with these amazing vendors for our most recent shoot. This Urban Vegetation design challenged us to look at produce in a new way. We love how it turned out! Rich deep color palettes mixed with leafy greens in a dreamy greenhouse ... what more could we ask for?

Julie and Ryan's shared love for Nantucket island led to a nautical-inspired theme that carried from their invitation suite to the breathtaking blue of hydrangea and anemone. The entire vibe of their wedding ceremony and reception reflected their warm, welcoming nature. Having a good time with friends and family was their first priority! Setting the tone from the start, they walked down the aisle to bluegrass music, led by the real star of the day: the ring bearer, their sweet dog, Jaxon. At the reception guests enjoyed a station-style dinner. Blue and white striped table runners and delicate centerpieces closed the circle on their maritime theme. Cocktail-style seating left plenty of room for dancing! The evening ended with a dramatic sendoff: the bridal party released enormous fire lanterns into the summer sky.

Sarah and Michael celebrated their wedding one of those dreamy, picture-perfect September days, with clear blue skies and not a cloud in the sky. The ceremony took place under a stunning geometric arch, handcrafted by the bride's uncle and adorned with flowers and greenery. Their dog, Stella, was appropriately adorned, too, with a gorgeous floral collar. She stole the show! Cocktail hour was tucked among the trees, where guests sipped cocktails from personalized pint glasses. The glass-top tent was a showstopper, furnished with farm tables and cross-back chairs, abundant, soft candlelight. Flowers were striking and lush in hues of burgundy and deep greens, accented by individual marble tiles that served as place cards. Dinner was filled with cheers, tears and so much laughter. Sunset kicked off the biggest dance party we've seen all year, in no small part because the clear tent made everyone feel like they were dancing under the stars. Congratulations Sarah and Michael!

Kathelia and Lee's wedding was bright and filled with energy! From the pink in the bride's hair to the whimsical flowers, the day was bursting at the seams with reflections of the couple's colorful personalities. They chose their date to coincide with a weekend that is traditionally filled with fun and built-in entertainment for their guests and they succeeded! There's no better time for celebration than Arts Fest.
From the moment they woke up, they each had the biggest, most genuine smiles on their faces that never faded. Bridesmaids were striking in hues of turquoise while Groomsmen rocked navy blue suits as a subtle nod to their Penn State roots. The day was full of nostalgia with stops at the Lion Shrine, Hintz Alumni Center, and of course, their favorite bar, The Phyrst. When you get married during Arts Fest, you absolutely have to take a walk down Allen Street, topped off with a Lion Chariot ride through campus. There's nothing more touching than when a family member performs the ceremony, and the groom's brother did not disappoint. His words were second only to the vows that the bride and groom wrote for each other. Afterwards, live Spanish guitar greeted guests for cocktails on the patio at Toftrees - one of many surprises of the night. Nothing could have prepared friends and family for the thoughtful touches and burst of excitement and color in the reception space! The reception entrance was epic, with fog cannons and a choreographed first dance, ending in an air guitar breakout. The bride, a graphic designer, created a custom logo for their wedding that became the focal point of their reception space. The groom, a techie, provided LED orbs and individual bracelets for each guest, all synced with the music. The dance floor was packed all night with guests with glowing bracelets and airborne orbs. It was one of the best dance parties of the year Vendor Love!

We love throwing baby showers, especially when they are for our past clients! We were honored to help with Lauren's woodland-themed event. This backyard baby shower was understated but lovely, with sweet little touches of woodland creatures and hints of blush to help welcome baby girl Henn. Guests surrounded the mother-to-be with love, presents, and memories that will last a lifetime.
Thank you vendors! best event rental, avant garden floral, paul's provisions catering, wink! events, More than Words by me, and jenna violet photography. Emily and Mahmoud are an incredibly fun, genuine couple that dreamed of a wedding reception that celebrated their love of travel and adventure. After a sunny outdoor ceremony, guests journeyed to the reception where they were each given a pocket compass that served as both escort card and favor. Vintage suitcases were the focal point of every table, identified by table numbers on map-inspired stationary, accented with candles and tall floral centerpieces. The bride and groom's unique tastes were reflected in a custom menu that was outside of the norm! The day was full of laughs and surprises, not the least of which being when the groom did a quick change from classic black tux into a formal white dinner jacket.

CC and Matt exuded the kind of wedding day joy that only comes when you're marrying your best friend. Their smiles were genuine as they drifted through the day together, enjoying every moment hand-in-hand. Her bouquet was striking: shades of deep burgundy nestled with anemone, the softest shade of pale pink spray roses, and lush greenery. Guests were invited to enjoy a family-style dinner served at farm tables. Centerpieces were smaller arrangements in CC's colors and enhanced with navy taper candles and rose gold accents. Escort cards were displayed on a wall adorned with fern, perfectly complementing the venue's aesthetic.

Megan and Fred's wedding day was consistently both sweet and touching, fun and playful - just like their love!
Their ceremony site was deeply personal: a private, renovated church, owned by the groom's family. They were married while standing in a cupola, with family and friends watching from adjacent balconies. Their daughters did heartfelt readings that left guests in happy tears. Exposed beams and natural light were enhanced by greenery garland on every hand rail and banister of every balcony. Following the ceremony, Megan and Fred led their guests down the lane to a wedding reception at home. Their two-story stone fireplace was filled with pillar candles and greenery, serving as a centerpiece for the indoor/outdoor reception. Cocktail-style seating and food stations kept guests moving!The evening closed with a flawless sunset over their private pond. It was a picture-perfect end to a simply perfect day. Vendor Love!

The collaborative design of our Desert Chic styled shoot was a wild mix of pattern and depth, both visual and tactile. Tables were topped with velvet and chiffon, providing a soft and neutral backdrop for place settings composed of pops of soft pink and touches of copper. The floral arrangements were free and natural, blending textures of cactus and soft pampas grass with blush-tinted blooms and touches of copper. The Bride and her maids were fashion-forward and glamorous with an infusion of traditional bridal white with authentic Boho style and just the right amount of sparkle.

Nicole and Mike's early Spring wedding was a gorgeous start to the season!
We put a different spin on their Central PA barn wedding, accenting with colors of deep teal and warm berry tones. Harmony Forge’s stunning landscape set the perfect backdrop for an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Everyone had a great sense of humor: periodic wind gusts up to 40 mph blew through and kept the outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour exciting. In spite of the wind, the day was filled with bright sunshine smiles and laughter. When a bride says she wants velvet we are all game! We created a custom seating wall for cocktail hour. The 5’ structure was covered in lush teal velvet and accented with climbing greens and copper hoops, guests were instantly greeted with a hint of what was to come in the barn. Guests were invited into the barn where they were greeted by vintage Edison lights, floral cages and pops of teal and berry. Family-style dinner service kept the party going allowing family and friends to catch up over a delicious meal. The bridal party was a blast, enjoying every minute of the weekend together and keeping the dance floor packed along with family and friends. Congratulations Nicole and Mike! Thank you vendors!
