Nothing quite like a true spring wedding!

When Carolyn and Brian came in for their initial consultation last year, we had an instant connection over embracing sustainability, being word nerds, and loving locally produced food and beer. I was super pumped to bring together their vision of a warm, colorful, springy celebration for family and friends!

The venue was the Crane Arts Center. While it’s a fun and unique space, this converted warehouse is rather sparse and a bit raw. Dressing it up can be challenging. On the plus side, the space is big enough to accommodate very large events and guests can tour the art galleries featuring local artists while sipping cocktails. The bright yellow, orange, green, white, and peach of the floral decor really helped make the whole place feel more festive and comfy. The featured blooms were dogwood, heirloom daffodils, ranunculus, anemones and tulips. Our hand-painted wooden table numbers also contributed to a distinctive look.

The ceremony was in the back garden, which was in full bloom with cherry blossoms that perfectly framed the arbor we put up and decorated with spring blooms and foliage. Gotta love a blue-blue sky above too.

Carolyn and Brian had a custom logo made for their wedding. It featured an artichoke so we put artichokes in the centerpieces and one in Carolyn’s bouquet to tie the theme together. Love ‘n Fresh did not grow these particular artichokes, though there are artichokes currently planted at the farm to hopefully produce these awesome architectural accents later this season.

I have to thank my team for their hard work pulling this wedding and the others this weekend together. Corinne, Emily, and Heidi: you rock! Also, loved working with Ken (and his amazingly attentive staff) from Diverse Catering and Inna from Peach Plum Pear photography again.
