Bella Bride: Kristen Scheble & Steve Flory

When we first met Kristen Scheble to talk about the vision for her wedding day, it all revolved around an image she had from a recent dream.  Months later, that image came to fruition on a perfect April day as she wed Steve Flory and celebrated with 80 of their closest family and friends. Below are some of our favorite images from the day courtesy of Andrea Polito.

The ceremony was held in the backyard of a close friend that served as the perfect backdrop for the modern styled decor.  The entry gates were laden with orchid blooms and garlands while a wispy display of phaelonopsis and dendrobium orchids fluttered in the background.

Kristen carried a gorgeous bouquet designed with Cattelya orchids, sweet peas and hints of delicate lily of the valley.  Such a simple and stunning accent piece to her custom designed wedding dress.

Absolutely LOVE her ceremony program bound in a leather snake skin cover and accented with the prettiest letterpress and floral accents.  Bell'Invito did such an awesome job!

The ceremony was short and sweet and the weather could not have been more perfect.

Guests then retreated to The Nasher Sculpture Gardens where a truly memorable fete awaited.  Seating consisted of two long and lavish rectangular tables positioned under a starry display of stringer lights and crystal accented glass orbs that appeared to be floating magically overhead.

Floral consisted of varying mercury glass vases topped with voluminous hydrangeas, cascading phaeleonopsis orchids, Oh so SWEET lilac, blush toned cymbidiums and low lying masses of ivory dendrobiums.

Kristen and Steven then sat in the middle of the lavish head tables where a plethora of our favorite blooms were displayed.  Peonies, lilac, Cattelya orchids, garden roses and hyacinth, yes please!

Bell'Invito did a beautiful job with the menu cards as well.  Love the white ink on slate! So stylish.

Lauren with Fancy Cakes did an equally stunning  job in using the wedding program as inspiration for the bridal cake.

Such a beautiful night!  We could not have been more thrilled with the end results and are so happy to have met and worked with such an awesome couple.  Congratulations Kristen and Steve.

Bella Bride: Kathryn Zera and Garret Kent

When we first met Kathryn & Garret, we knew that their wedding would be centered around the union of their wonderful families, rich colors and textures, classic and elegant designs and above all Love.  They wed November 20, 2010 at Christ the King and The Hotel Crescent Court on a day that was exquisitely captured by the talented Thisbe Grace Team.

The stunning bride carried a classic bouquet of soft textured ivory blooms that included gorgeous peonies, voluminous hydrangeas, soft champagne roses and sweet freesia.  A beautiful rosary from the bride was then attached to the stems for that added personal touch we love so much. 

The dapper groom also added his own personal and super charming accent that day with these awesome penguin cuff links.  Such fun!

Raspberry, violets and chartreuse were the primary wedding tones and complimented the bridesmaid and groomsmen wonderfully.  This is one of our favorite color palettes to use when designing for a fun and lively atmosphere. 

The paper products were stylishly simple and letterpressed!  Jason Mc Daniel did an awesome job in keeping the tones consistent throughout. 

Loving this ring bearer orchid creation that really amped up the berry tones. 

The ceremony space was so dramatic and fitting for the wedding.  We chose a pure and lush palette of ivory, champagne and barely there touches of blush for the decor.  

Absolutely love these next set of images.  These are some our favorite moments to see from the wedding.   There are no words to describe the love in the room!

Announcing Mr. and Mrs. Garret Kent! 

For the reception, we chose to really enhance the space with vivid violets, raspberry, fuchsia and splashes of chartreuse green.  Kathryn and Garret love to travel so choosing an atlas of the world as a guest book was a brilliant idea.

The reception area was decked with a combination of tall, medium and low arrangements created with hydrangeas, garden roses, peonies, phaelo sprinkles and vanda blooms.  We then placed them atop varying stylish glass vessels and tucked hints of crystal embellishments throughout. 

The dance floor area was adorned with this magical crystal ceiling treatment which really added a glam vibe to the overall styling. 

First dance as newlyweds :) 

Kathryn's cake was so creatively simple and chic.  Just a touch of floral really highlighted the delicious creation. 

Garret's cake was too cute for words!

In lieu of favors, Kathryn and Garret made a donation to The Alzheimer's Association, The Cancer Research Institute and The American Heart Association in loving memory of their grandparents. 

Cuvee really kept the party going that night. 

I love that the band led the way to the exit. Way to keep the party going!

We absolutely loved this couple and feel very grateful to have been part of their wedding day!

Congratulations Kathryn and Garret!
