Hello all!!! This is one wedding that had a very different approach [Read Below..] :
Sarah, Ryan and I Planned this wedding from beginning to end!
Sarah wanted a darker and moody editing for her wedding images, because... She is a Halloween LOVER - As manifested we had the most incredible weather - Cloudy and cool! - Made it EASY!
Very thoughtful and not over the top creativity was minded to create a simple and classic feel - Still incorporating that little fall-Halloween style - with accents and details that spoke of the Florida citrus [ since 'La Venture' the venue is a historic citrus grove] with about 80 guests were invited and the couple chose a Grazing Board vs. Sit-down dinner or a table sitting chart.
The colors: Classic Blacks, Tangerine, Oranges, Vintage Golds, Blush/Greens, Off Whites
Florals included silver dollar, parviflora, and baby eucalyptus - along with ranunculus for boutonnieres - white roses delicately placed for the bouquets along with greens.
The Johnson's [ Sarah & Ryan ] wanted the main focus to be for guests/family to dance, gather, mingle and get to socialize more - get-to-know one another.
The Exit: Opted for a Neon Wand Exit vs, Sparklers.
Sarah had a songwriter put her words with composed music for their first dance to, Lauren her baby girl was part of all the celebrations for the day - Her sweet spirit was all!
Final result - No Mess --> No Fuzz, just simple, classic FUN
