Charming Florida Brewery Wedding: Joanna + Colin
Charming Florida Brewery Wedding: Joanna + Colin
via
Pink, gold + black is a wedding palette that will seriously never fail! And Joanna + Colin's handmade Florida brewery wedding is definitely further proof of that notion. Loving their creative use of these super fun hues! Add giant balloons ( like these!), a chic-looking bridal party, and pretty florals to the mix, and you have the recipe for a day that's brimming with charm + beauty. Let's hear more about it from the bride:
We wanted our wedding to be a laid-back celebration with our closest family and friends - not a formal affair. Most importantly, we wanted it to feel like "us", which meant getting rid of a lot of traditions that we didn't find meaningful and planning the day with an open mind. Instead of a formal dinner we brought in our favorite food truck to serve our guests, and had a cotton candy machine and dessert table instead of a traditional wedding cake. Since we wanted to keep the wedding small (with a small budget), we did everything ourselves instead of hiring a planner or coordinator and our friends and family played a huge role in our wedding, too.
Thanks so much to Brooke Images for the gorgeous photography + big congrats to Joanna + Colin!
Such pretty wedding hair, right? We're pinning that one!
Joanna wore a crisp, classic gown from Mori Lee, which she paired with the raddest gold metal belt! And love that her ladies all wore black cocktail dresses that showed off their individual personalities!
Oh, and did you see we just added a bunch of new bridesmaid dresses to the GWS shop? Pop over + have a look!
Processional: Intro - The XX
Colin's mom put together the bouquets + arrangements! We'd say these two are pretty darn lucky to have that kind of talent in the fam!
