Chic Garden Party Wedding with Vibrant Colors and Modern Details

Kelly and Nate first met on Hinge before the pandemic. They consider themselves so fortunate to have met before their lives and the world really changed forever. Through the ups and downs of navigating the world's changes, Kelly and Nate's love grew stronger and stronger, ultimately leading to Nate's proposal. Nate proposed to Kelly at her family lake house on Burt Lake. It has been in her family for over thirty years and holds so much family history and wonderful memories. He took Kelly completely by surprise with the timing of the engagement but he made sure to talk to her parents and brothers beforehand, which is something that was extra important to Kelly. He proposed during a weekend when Kelly's entire family was all at the lake house together. It was the perfect way to kick off their engagement celebrations altogether. They set off to plan the ultimate wedding celebration with their closest friends and family!

On her wedding day, Kelly wore a modern a-line wedding dress with a beautiful, long train. Kelly's stylist even gave her a short haircut the morning of the wedding! She styled her fun new cut with a beautiful pearl pin tucking one side softly back. Her family heirloom earrings were the perfect pearl accents, too.

Kelly's bridesmaids wore mismatched floral dresses and carried organic bouquets of colorful flowers.

The groom wore a tux with a white dinner jacket, and his groomsmen wore classic black tuxedos, which created the perfect contrast among the men.

The couple's signature cocktail featured edible flowers, which was a huge hit with the guests. Each guest had a heartfelt note at their seat, showing just how much Kelly and Nate valued their company at the wedding of their dreams.

For the wedding reception, Kelly and Nate had a vision for a chic garden party with vibrant colors. Their whimsical floral arrangements featured bright summer colors like baby blues, bold yellows, and light pinks. Their outdoor reception space featured a classic black and white dance floor and romantic string lights.

Kelly and Nate had a beautiful and tasty citrus cheesecake that they cut into and shared. The guests enjoyed a large dessert table filled with miniature tarts, eclairs, and more.

No detail went unnoticed on their wedding day. Kelly designed the invitation suite and signage herself, which was such a special touch, and she had them printed by Paper Refinery. She incorporated whimsical floral elements and blue touches throughout, which made everything cohesive and unique to their big day.
