Colors for this summer wedding were a fresh palette of mint green, gold, white and navy blue. Working with Studio French Blue, the invitations set the tone for the event. Joy of Studio French Blue drew a free hand motif that we then carried out throughout the printed materials. guys the morning of looking stylish gardens and arch way in FranceThe weather on the wedding day turned out to be absolutely gorgeous so we were able to set up the ceremony outside in a semi-circle formation. The bride made a grand entrance down the regal staircase of the chateau as the band played ‘Another Day of Sun’ from the movie La La Land. rings in france briude flowers close up

The Chinoiserie theme extended through dinner too by using tall branches of seasonal greenery punctuated with whimsical golden birds on the branches. The place settings were more traditionally French with gold cutlery, gold-rimmed glassware and charger plates. We then paired it with a pale green napkin and nay menus to add a pop of string color. The cake by Synies was also a whimsical creation decorated with delicate branches and birds.beautiful and yummy appsbirds on these olive trees in Francecake decoration with flowers and birds so very coolbridesmaids are so cute
