Pretty In Pink - April 2, 2011

Brad and Liz were married on April 2, 2011.  They met through Liz's brother, who worked with Brad.  Liz is a bubbly blonde who is all about PINK!  Her 10 bridesmaids (5 were her sisters) looked amazing in watermelon hot pink long gowns, which looked great alongside the groomsmen's black tuxes.

The ceremony and reception (around 300 guests) was held in a church close to where Liz grew up.

Liz chose (from Marlo's Rental's) for the platform two 8' pillars with fabric draping, accented with ivy and hot pink rose clusters at the cornices of the pillars.  She also decorated with our two white floor candelabras with ivy and hot pink roses, which looked beautiful behind the 10 attendants on each side wearing that hot pink and black!  With that much pop of color, nothing else was needed!

Lining the aisles were our white aisle candelabras (my favorite!) with white and off-white roses and hydrangeas, ivy and ribbons.  The inspiration for these came from Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey's wedding.  These candelabras are a great price and are one of our most popular rental items.

Liz cut costs by using DIY bouquets made by her bridesmaids, with fresh roses ordered in bulk from Costco, photos taken by a trusted friend and food made by her family.  Liz was the first of six girls (from a family of eight siblings) to get married and it was awesome to see everyone pitch in to help her have the wedding she and her budget were thrilled with!
