Vintage Glam: Erica's Romantic Wedding at Southern Mansion in Cape May

 

 

 

I loved working on this wedding last spring for a bunch of reasons. One, I got to go to one of my favorite Cape May venues, The Southern Mansion, which is gorgeous. Two, we got to play with a TON of vintage bottles and hang flowers from the ceiling. And Three, working with Erica was so much fun! She had such great ideas that I just ran with! And her details were absolutely gorgeous! Check out these beautiful photos from Monika Broz Photography.

 

  

Their First Glance was so sweet!!!

 

Erica's bouquet was designed with ranunculus, "Patience" ivory David Austin garden roses, dusty miller, peonies and a touch of baby's breath.

 

Maggpie Vintage supplied awesome garden gates that we decorated with fresh flowers.

 

 I love visiting this venue :)

 

 

There were a ton of details for her cocktail and reception. There are really no words besides fabulous! We had flowers everywhere, on chandeliers, in bottles,  tucked into vintage shutters, loose on tables, everywhere.

 

 

 

 I loved making these! We rent these white chandeliers 

and can add candles or also just flowers.

 We also used some of our rented white milk glass vessels and added more white flowers.

 

 

The medicine bottles we used were a bunch of shapes and colors, but 

although it looks intricate, it was very simple with a nice shape

 chart I created prior to set up.

 

The sweetheart table was draped in shimmery gold sequins linen, and we added 

a long garland of flowers to finish the look.

 

Such an amazing wedding for such an amazing couple!

Amanda and AJ's Wedding at The Southern Mansion in Cape May

These gorgeous photos are courtesy of Maecreations Photography, a fabulous photographer I worked with for the first time last week for Amanda and AJ's wedding in Cape May at The Southern Mansion. I loved her flowers for a very good reason, hydrangeas are my absolute favorite flower!

Amanda's bridal bouquet was created with five varieties of hydrangeas, and button dahlias in all shades of blue, with white and green.

A gorgeous close up!

Such a sweet moment!

They were the nicest couple! And wonderful to work with!

I am amazed by the gardens at the Mansion. I want to start working on the landscaping and mimic the gardens here!

The ceremony spot, a intimate garden setting.

The men wore ivory button dahlias.

Her centerpieces were so fun! We used cobalt gathering vases and filled them with loads of hydrangeas.

A gorgeous photo of the cake done by The Sweet Life Bakery. Stephen and Jill do an amazing job! I was so happy to hear from Amanda: "Laura, You've left me speechless with how beautiful the wedding flowers were. They were absolutely gorgeous. My guests were complimenting me all night on the arrangements and bouquets. Thanks again for such a beautiful job, you really did make our day extra special. Amanda and AJ"
