January 23, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

Vintage-Industrial-Chicago-Wedding-at-Salvage-One (14 of 33)

Amanda and Alex included their entire family in the wedding process, making it just that much more special. The bride’s mother created all of the bouquets and centerpieces, and her cousin designed all of the printed materials–invitations, Save the Dates, programs. With a color palette of rose, gold, and cream, the wedding design perfectly accentuated the vintage character of Salvage One in Chicago, Illinois. Rachel Gulotta Photography documented the gorgeous details at this one-of-a-kind wedding.

The Couple:

Amanda and Alex

The Wedding:

Salvage One, Chicago, Illinois

From the bride: I wanted to work with people who created beautiful, simple, and elegant things. I’m a writer so it was important to me to support Chicago-based artists like Rachel and Daniel, who are doing such great work. I also was so happy to work with Yolanda Trejo, who has been my hair stylist and fashion icon for about eight years now, and who also just opened her own salon, yo:u, in Chicago.

From the bride: We just fell in love with Salvage One. I felt like we were in a magical place and we didn’t want to ever leave. It has so many weird and amazing elements–it felt like we were on a set. It was perfect for the wedding, and of course, for the photos.

Effortlessly Natural Florida Wedding at Charles Ringling Mansion

January 23, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

Effortlessly-Natural-Florida-Wedding-at-Charles-Ringling-Mansion (30 of 30)

Choosing to incorporate neutral, muted colors and minimal décor directs the wedding focus toward the couple, and that’s exactly what we love about Keith and Lisa’s wedding in Florida. The couple was full of laughter and smiles at their nature inspired, outdoor wedding. Charles Ringling Mansion offered a reception venue that surrounded the couple in natural light. Rachel Photographs captured the easy-going couple as they experienced one of the happiest days of their lives.

The Couple:

Keith and Lisa

The Wedding:

Charles Ringling Mansion, Sarasota, Florida

From the bride: Having the wedding reflect natural beauty was our main goal. We chose locally grown floral and plants for decor, used an earth-tone color pallet, and included lots of wood for our signage. Keith kept a beard, and I wore my hair naturally curly and makeup simple to keep with the same vibe.

Advice from the couple: Take every bit of help people offer you. Our wedding would not have been the same without the input and collaboration in all aspects of the wedding process. Our family and friends grew and arranged the floral, folded origami flowers, created invitations, made all of the desserts, created our wedding video, decorated the entire venue, and even cleaned up afterwards. By taking their help, our wedding was that much more special and personalized to us.

Florence, Italy Elopement at Torre di Bellosguardo + Video

January 22, 2016 | Junebug Weddings

Florence-Italy-Elopement-at-Torre-di-Bellosguardo-Hotel-Gattotigre-Videographers-29

Jillian and Tony’s Florence, Italy elopement is full of beautiful surprises. Though the bride used to be a wedding planner, she and her groom decided to elope. Jillian’s gown is one of the most uniquely stunning we’ve seen, and she purchased it for just $899 at TJ Maxx! Even with no official wedding guests, Jillian and Tony handpicked several professionals to be present on their day, including a photographer, videography team, and even two officiants. Photographer Sofie Delauw of The Curious Eater and the talented cinematographers behind Gattotigre Videomakers captured every thoughtful, candid, and magical moment of the elopement.

The Couple:

Jillian and Tony

I absolutely love to get dressed up, and I have a feeling people think I spend a LOT of money on clothes…. but you wouldn’t believe how much of my closet is from Goodwill and thrift stores. I purchased my Ralph Lauren Purple Label Wedding Gown at TJ Maxx on clearance for $899. No one seems to believe me!

Everything about our ceremony was incredibly intimate. Our officiants did a wonderful job of delving into the story of us — both as a couple and who we are as individuals. The entire ceremony was personalized to reflect our love, our commitment, and our promises to each other.

I used to be a wedding planner, so I’ve witnessed firsthand the disappointment of getting swept up into the whirlwind of a traditional wedding and having the moment end abruptly after months- or even years- of planning. I wanted us to have a much more intimate experience that truly captured the commencement of this monumental commitment. For us, that meant a private ceremony, carefully written vows, and lots of meaningful moments.

We had just moved into a very contemporary new home and decided upon a completely neutral color palette. We loved how clean things looked in black and white, so we decided to carry that design through into our wedding. The penthouse at Gallery Hotel Art was a perfect match for our style, and it felt like a glammed-up version of our home away from home.
