More from our styled shoot ‘Love You To Peaches’. WeddingDay Magazine established several themes to choose from and we chose ‘Peach Overload’ Each year the design competition has required including Pantones Color of the Year (this last year it was Peach Fuzz) within the shoot. Other guidelines included only using black and/or white and designing with maximalism in mind. Did we hit the mark?

Caitlin + Kevin's winter wedding. They didn't want to go full blown holiday with their decor, so we opted to stay away from traditional Christmas colors and kept the tree neutral with silver & gold accents and warm white lights. So pretty!

I couldn’t let today slip away without wishing Abigail & John happy first anniversary. Every detail from their wedding was carefully and intentionally curated to create a day that could only belong to the two of them. Loved ones gathered from across the country to celebrate their ceremony in the spectacular Basilica of the Sacred Heart on the campus of the University of Notre Dame, where their love story began. Subtle nods to the holiday season were included, but never overshadowed the rich, jewel toned color palette that was inspired by the stained glass windows in the Basilica. So much love was poured into the planning of this day, and I still pinch myself that I got to be a part of it. Cheers to one year! .

The last day of summer did not disappoint with nearly cloudless skies and brilliant sunshine. The lush gardens@sundanceandthesecretgarden encircled the ceremony as the sweetest of souls were wed. How lucky were we to be a part of this beautiful day. .

The first impluse to go very neutral with wedding floral & decor (think whites, ivory, greenery) in a space full of color might seem like the way to go. We went the exact opposite with Caitlin & Van's gorgeous color filled day! The result was nothing short of amazing!! So many thanks to Country Florist and Gifts for understanding the assignment, and then taking it up a notch.

After months of planning, decision making and anticipation, your wedding day will fly by in the blink of an eye. Which is why I loved that together with their parents, Amanda and Zach chose to have a private toast just before the start of their reception. Taking a moment to fully take in the day and be present with each other - I can’t think of anything lovelier. .

We repurposed the floral that lined the ceremony aisle by placing it around both bars for the reception - too beautiful to not enjoy for the entire day!
