Congratulations Vince and Stephanie

This beautiful Ceremony and Reception were full of unique details that set the mood for the day.  For the Ceremony backdrop, the couple hung 1000 colorful paper cranes in front of a huge oak tree.  For the guestbook, the couple found a vintage guestbook that matched Stephanie’s great grandmothers.  They had the great grandmother’s book mounted in a shadow box for everyone to see.  That was such a great personal touch!  During the Ceremony, they had a Blessing Stone ceremony in which all the guests were holding stones and asked to say a blessing or wish over the new couple.  At the end of the ceremony, the stones were all dropped into a jar for Vince and Stephanie to keep.  For attire, the Bridal Party wore knee-length vintage style floral print dresses while the Groomsmen wore black Converse.

At the Reception there were many great details as well. Stephanie found and saved assorted vintage china pieces for dinner service.  Each place setting had a different dinner plate and salad plate.  Then, she had more china plates on the dessert table as well as vintage serving plates for the desserts.  Their cake featured their aunt’s cake topper and they toasted with another aunt’s toasting glasses.  For another neat touch, the couple found vintage cake toppers and had one on each guest table.  Each table also had assorted flowers in a variety of vintage style vases on a mirrors or vintage trays.  There were also vintage linens covering some of the special tables.  And, to tie in with the 1000 cranes for the Ceremony, more cranes were scattered around each centerpiece. This couple really thought out all the details to perfection!

After a fun wedding day and the Last Dance, the Newlyweds said goodbye and ran through a shower of bubbles before heading off to their life as a married couple.  Congratulations Vince and Stephanie!
