A Heavenly Reception Photographed by Rachel Thurston

Posted on January 2nd, 2012 by Kate. Filed under Real Weddings.


Happy 2012 Everyone!

We’re starting the year with a gorgeous outdoor fête photographed by the very talented Rachel Thurston!

Amanda and Tom celebrated their union with a heavenly reception, featuring a classic monochromatic palette.   Enjoy the peek below (and that amazing dessert spread by Flour & Flower Designs), but don’t miss the full feature in our Real Wedding Gallery!

The maids look lovely in pale grey frocks by The Daisy Shoppe and mix and match cardigans.  The couple designed their day by first deciding on a monochromatic scheme with subtle changes in color.  They wanted everything to feel simple and flowing, very soft… with no sharp edges.

So so lovely…see more of this loveliness right over here…

Best Wishes

Amanda & Tom
