Pretty Floral Garden Wedding

Real Wedding Spotlight: Pretty floral arrangements combined with soft color hues created the most magical fairytale vibe for Leah & Spencer’s mid-September wedding day.

Enchanting, whimsical, gorgeous… Leah and Spencer’s pretty floral outdoor garden wedding has us yearning for warmer days ahead. Leah and Spencer laughed until they cried and cried until they laughed as they exchanged vows in the woods, cheered with their bridal party, and smooched in the vineyard. Family and friends were simply enchanted by their love and friendship all day.

The décor for the day suited Leah and Spencer’s hope for a pretty, elegant atmosphere. Classic draping, the stunning array of silk wisteria, and fresh rose arrangements adorned the Lath House’s ceremony space. Twinkle lights, chandeliers, and a lofted head table carried on these themes for an overall perfect day.

As their day turned to a sunset and the sunset turned to night, guests enjoyed late night pizzas from The Garden’s Pizza Oven, chatted by the fire, and danced the night away.

Leah and Spencer chose a lovely rose floral installation for The Lath House ceremonial archway.

Say “Cheese!”, Karen! (A little behind the scenes of what WE see…)

… This is what THEY see. Fun experience means fun wedding portraits. We love this sweet capture in front of The Lath House by Karen Feder Photography

This final squeeze in front of The Garden’s Suite before Leah walked down the aisle is so full of love and joy!

Leah and Spencer’s bridal party lined up in front of The Garden’s Reception Tent before they walked down the aisle to The Lath House.

Silk wisteria hung by Marah Cole Designs had guests “oohing and aahing” in The Lath House. Walking down the aisle under such a ethereal display to your happily ever after is a once in a lifetime feeling.

This is what an “oh-my-gosh-we’re-married” smooch looks like. Add in a dreamy ceremony location, roses, and a display of silk wisteria and you have pure wedding magic.

Blissfully happy, Leah and Spencer headed off into the setting sun to their wedding reception to party the night away.

“Leah & Spencer, party of 20, please!” Not a problem! Leah & Spencer’s multi-level head table feature emphasized their appreciation for all of the friends and family in their bridal party.

Sweet and simple draping + twinkle lights and chandeliers + delicate florals = A romantic reception tent atmosphere.

Leah and Spencer’s wedding day was FUN! Guests enjoyed spaces to explore and play lawn games during cocktail hour and well into the night.
