Even though we got married almost a year ago, we wanted to share a few of the aesthetic choices we made.
The escort card table was covered in moss and white tea lights.
The dress is Vera Wang, but it looks vintage. Chantilly lace, drenched in delicate sequins. The best part, however, was the velvet belt with beige and dusty rose chiffon blooms.
While the bouquets were beautiful, they were not exactly what we wanted, but that is part of the process of letting go and letting people do their job. We wanted the bouquets to be mostly herbs and greenery focusing on lavender, rosemary and sage. They ended up being mostly flowers, but they had enough herbs to make them smell amazing.
The cake was made from Jordan's grandmother's banana cake recipe smothered in rich chocolate frosting. It was delicious and we look forward to eating the top tier in September.
Our photographers were simply amazing, we HIGHLY recommend them. They are incredibly talented and just the most wonderful people.

There is only one photograph of the centerpiece, and it doesn't really capture the whole effect, but you get the idea. We used mostly succulents and a variety of white blooms. They were placed in wooden boxes with candles and large metal numbers to mark the tables. The centerpieces came out perfectly. We were able to save several of the succulents that dried beautifully and make great decorations.
Also, our wedding was coordinated by the lovely Michelle Buckley of Mint Julep Events.
