I just came across these images from Bella Pictures from one of our 2013 weddings and couldn't wait to share them, especially since Kristen and Mike's two year anniversary is today! What a great beginning to a forever love story - these two met on the Amtrak en route to Milwaukee and sparks flew. They stylishly incorporated the train theme into their wedding with white and green train placecards and we carried that timeless color scheme into the bouquets and centerpiece flowers. Each of the bridesmaids selected a shade of blue, green or teal which was stunning with the crisp green and white flowers. Holy Family provided a gorgeous, traditional atmosphere for the ceremony and the reception at Carnivale served as a hip, vibrant contrast.

Love a first look when the actual looking gets saved for the ceremony. It honors tradition and lets the couple check in with each other before taking their vows. Not to mention a little suspense for the bride's "wow" factor when she walks down that aisle!

Kristen's gorgeous cathedral veil cascading down the marble stairs of the altar at Holy Family which is always a stunner but especially so with potted seasonal spring flowers and plants.

Great bold color added style and looked great on each of the bridesmaids.

Seasonal white peonies echoed the details of the bride's sash and add a hint of subtle romance frangrance.

Happy Anniversary, Kristen and Mike!
