Courtney came to our first meeting with a design binder the
size of an encyclopedia, and immediately I knew our design visions would
mesh seamlessly to create a lovely wedding at Mapleside Farm. Courtney
and Matt are a very special, warm couple and their wedding day mirrored
their personalities perfectly!
Courtney’s overall look is very anthropologie inspired – rustically elegant, charming and hip. Every single detail from the wood welcome signs to the photos displayed throughout the barn, down to the apple cider slushees, added such warmth and unique personality to the overall design of the wedding.
The ceremony could not have been more beautiful and emotional. Set with the backdrop of the apple orchard, Courtney’s dad officiated the ceremony, after which guests enjoyed a beautiful cocktail hour in the ideal September weather.
In order to dress up the barn, we used velvet linens and beautiful floral charger plates from Event Source which added such charm to the already gorgeous barn.
Courtney actually collected many of the vessels used for the floral décor herself! We then worked with the amazingly talented Erin from The Budding Tree to create centerpieces and floral pieces that brought the entire look together.
Jamie from Hoopla designed stunning invitations and all of the wedding day signage was collected and created by Courtney and The Budding Tree!
One of my favorite memories of the day was when I was bustling Courtney’s dress. We both noticed the ring bearer walk by us, licking his fingers. Simultaneously we looked behind us at the wedding cake, now decorated with a few little finger prints. Courtney, being so sweet and gracious, laughed it off and said, “I can’t wait to do that to his wedding cake in about 30 years!” With a few strategically positioned florals, the once immaculate cake designed by the talented ladies at Luna was fixed and looked amazing!
Throughout the evening guests dined on fabulous food from A Taste of Excellence and danced the night away thanks to Brian and his team at Selective Sound. As always, Vince from Making the Moment captured the details of the day flawlessly and I just love re-living the day through his stunning images!
