We are so excited to share Ashley and Taylor’s coastal wedding with you!
Timeless, elegant, coastal romantic and English garden are all of the key words we incorporated into Ashely and Taylor’s magnificent wedding day. When we first met Ashley and Brad their classic style was what inspired us to design this English Garden party for their big day.
They planned for the reception to take place in their beautiful coastal backyard, where we worked closely with Sperry Tents to execute the reception space. We brought in the essence of true timeless elegance with the design of the reception tent. Borrowed Blu provided garden white and blue china accenting the mix matched white and gold chargers at each guest seat. Ryan Design hung elegant chandeliers from the peaks of the classic sail cloth tent, providing a soft romance to the evening ahead. Hana Floral Design added pops of color to the centerpieces on the guest table, a mixture of rounds and rustic farm tables with ultra fine linens provided by La Tavola.
Ashley and Taylor started the day off with a beach party put on by Gourmet Galley that welcomed their guests to the fun and care free wedding planned ahead. After the beach party guests were invited to attend a traditional church ceremony at Madison First Congregational Church. After the ceremony, guests were shuttled back to the family estate where they enjoyed a festive cocktail hour while the wedding party posed for their portraits. As cocktail hour came to a close, guests were invited to find the dance floor while Ashley and Taylor danced to their first dance as man and wife. When guests found their seats they were welcomed to a delicious summer salad full of color and vibrant edible flowers. After a rich and delicious meal by Gourmet Galley, guests made their way to the dance floor with Dream Team Band Inc.. To end the evening, guests lined up to send the happy couple off with well wishes and sparklers with a sparkler send off.
