Signature Occasions - Wedding Planning/Directing and Decor

Photography by David Wiggins

Tiffany came to us with a great and unique vision for her wedding. She wanted fun, casual, and different. She wanted black, white and red...so we added polka dots, buttons and amazing floral ideas to really bring the vision together.

A Daisy A Day made amazing pieces that really suited the overall style. The polka dot toppers, red and white lanterns, buttons down the tables and bouquets were all aspects that made the style cohesive. The aisle was lined with over-sized red carnation balls tied with black and white polka dot ribbons...they were perfect! The food tables were set in front of a draped white wall and a hanging monogram of red flowers. This same monogram was seen on all the paper products throughout the evening. Even the wishing tree of hanging red ribbons had pieces of paper with the monogram on the top and handwritten notes by the guests. Every detail brought the overall look to perfection!

The bride's cake by That Special Touch included polka dot ribbons and fondant buttons around the tiers. The groom's cake by Whatever It Cakes was a replica of a fire hose to represent the groom's love as a fireman!

Not only was the decor a cohesive element, but the couple made sure to pay attention to pleasing the guests. Amazing food by Katherine Davis, and great music by Hunter Gibson and The Gators, made the guests relax and enjoy themselves. Also, the kid's sized tables and chairs were covered in crayons and activities. As an added touch, the buffet included peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and goldfish...kid favorites! A great time was had by all! Congrats!

The couple danced, mingled with guests and left in a vintage firetruck...also crowd favorite! A great photo op for both adults an kids.

Fairview Inn

We were lucky to be asked to assist Amanda Johnson with her wedding. She is such an organized planner with a clear vision and we really enjoyed being able to execute her vision, so she was able to enjoy her day to the fullest!

She used the peacock feather as her inspiration. The bridesmaids dresses were a aqua color and accents of purple and deep blue throughout really made a complete style. Peacock feathers in the bouquets, centerpieces, and food table arrangements really showed the whole vision.

They were married on the deck of The Fairview and we were crossing our fingers that it would be great weather. Luckily, it turned out beautifully. Mostly Martha's handled the flowers and really brought the peacock look together. The white lanterns along the banister, feather pew markers, photo guest book, peacock boutonnières, and custom aisle runner represented the couple perfectly.

It was the special touches that made guests remember this wedding. Quilt squares, babysitting room, candy bar, cheesecake martinis, and a photo booth were the favorites!

Guests were greeted inside with quilt squares to write notes to the couple. The table also had the family veil as an overlay with a description of it's history. Of course the guests loved the candy bar!! Both kids and adults loved packing their monogrammed bags with childhood favorites.

Of course parents loved being able to drop their children at a childcare area and enjoy some adult fun! The centerpieces tied with coordinating ribbon and feathers really accented the vision. Outside was a photo booth...a crowd favorite! I can't wait to see those pics!

Overall, the wedding really represented the couple and suited her vision perfectly! We were lucky to be able to help and bring her dream to life! Congrats!
