Despite all the trumpets and fanfare, a marriage is at its core, a union of two hearts on fire. A wedding is a commemoration of that love with the family and friends who cultivated and defined love throughout the lives of the couple. Love is the ultimate theme and is interwoven into every detail of the wedding. For Tracy and Johnny, that was evident in every choice the couple made—from the venue to the bride’s walk down the aisle.
As a senior director and a woman who loves to travel, Tracy was a soon-to-be bride with passionate views of what she wanted at her wedding. However, she found herself lacking enough time on her plate to execute her dreams. Her fiancé, Johnny, shared her views but was also pressed for time.
When the couple reached out to us for help, it was clear from the start that this wedding was going to be a magnificent manifestation of love! Their love story was a magical array of passion and compassion. When we asked them to tell us their story, their eyes lit up from excitement as they each recounted the moment they knew this was the one. The sparks between them could turn any non-believer into a hopeless romantic! Tracy and Johnny were destined to be soulmates.
All love stories are special, but our team recognized that this couple’s wedding would be different from the get-go.
The choice of a church was a very sentimental and personal selection for the bride and her family. What better location to choose to celebrate a holy union than in a place that reverberates with the bride and echoes with sentimental value? It was our privilege to help Tracy create the ceremony of her dreams to join in matrimony with the man of her dreams, while honoring her memory of the church.
The aisle was mesmerizing with droplets of flowers and beautiful candles lining the way. Tracy was lucky enough to have her Uncle escorted her halfway down the aisle, to then be accompanied by her young son. The trio traveled down the rest of the isle together until her son got the change to give her away. When the priest asked, “Who gives permission for this woman to be married?” He said, “I do.”
They say a diamond is a girl’s best friend— which was certainly true for Tracy! She loved everything sparkly with rhinestones, gold, and silver. The bride loved the cuisine at the venue, but it lacked that sparkle. Luckily, we were there to help transform that vision into reality.
Our specialty is attention to detail. This couple knew that the intricate details reverberated with their guests and made their wedding all the more memorable.
Their sweetheart table had crystals and lighting built in to create a glow. To play off of that, all of the guests tables had crystals and other details encompassed throughout which embraced the theme.
Their 5 tier cake was adorned with crystals and silver glitter cake topper.
Tracy’s bouquet was adorned with crystals and lace and matched her stunning dress and jewelry.
Their custom monogram was incorporated throughout the wedding. In places such as, the white custom dance floor, seating chart and cake topper.
The mini cakes with beautiful sugar flowers were given out at the end of the night, along with the Thank you cards.
The Bride had 3 different looks that night, each one with different dress, make-up and hair style: First one for ceremony, second one for Introductions and the third one for cake cutting and dancing.
All of these intricate details came together to make their wedding exactly what our bride and groom had dreamed of. Each piece tied together and made their special day all the more memorable for them and the guests.
It was a pleasure to create a day to showcase the love that existed between the pair. May their life together be full of love and their love be full of life!
