Pretty in Pink!

Pinks and purples have been a big trend this wedding season. I have to say I am a BIG fan! These dusty colored roses scream romance. Our clients, Angie and Mike's wedding is featured above. From the bouquets to the cake, all of the flowers were stunning! They are so delicate and beautiful I wish you all could have been there to witness this event. All designed by the very talented Kio Kreations. Angie and Mike's romantic reception took place at Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont.

La Di Real Wedding: Heidi and Jon

Hey it's Aubrey....I wanted to share just a few of my favorite photos with you taken by Kara Schultz Photography from Heidi and Jon's damask themed wedding this past May. The ceremony was held at Naperville's Naper Settlement, followed by a reception at the Danada House in Wheaton. I had so much fun working with Heidi, Jon and their families, while trying to stay cool in the 92 degree weather!!! I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do!!

The Danada House grounds provided the perfect setting for outdoor spring bridal party and family photos!
Heidi's bridesmaids looked stunning in their black dresses that were accented with magenta bouquets designed by Kristen at Kio Kreations.

Heidi and Jon's fun,easy-going spirit made for an enjoyable wedding day!

Czarina from the Chair Couture jazzed up Heidi and Jon's reception hall with black and white chair covers, while My Chef Catering adorned each table with damask table runners.

Each table number featured a snapshot of the bride and groom at the same age as the correlating table number....super easy and cute idea!

Menu cards were placed at each setting to give guests a heads up of the delicious food to come!

The damask theme didn't just stop with menu cards and table runners, but was also incorporated into the wedding cake.

Candy stations have been all the rave lately and Heidi didn't slack on making her's one of the best! Guests could not get enough of these sweet treats, packing their favor boxes with M&M's, Gummy Orange Rings (the Bride's favorite) and Starburst's (the Groom's favorite). A majority of my night was spent refilling and refilling some more!! Heidi's Mom and Dad were a huge help in making the candy station a success!

I love those brides who are out on the dance floor the whole night, and Heidi was definitely one of those brides!! Seriously, who doesn't like to dance at weddings??

Heidi gives us a peek at her magenta colored heels!! Adorable!

Although the weather was not the most comfortable, we all survived, and had a great time!Thank you Heidi and Jon for letting me be apart of such a special event! It's couples like you that make me love what I do! Cheers to the new Mr. and Mrs.!
