Katie and Josh’s downtown Chicago engagement photos are some of the most fun we’ve ever seen. A quick train ride took the couple to Oak Street Beach, where they danced and played with waves crashing around them. Photographer Eastlyn Bright captured the exceedingly endearing moments flawlessly.

Elegant Earthy Hacienda del Sol Wedding

October 29, 2015 | Junebug Weddings

Earthy-Elegant-Hacienda-del-Sol-Wedding-MC-Weddings-and-Events-1058

Proving that desert weddings can be incredibly elegant, Megan and Aaron tied the knot at Hacienda del Sol in Tuscon, Arizona. Megan looked unbelievably beautiful in her off-the-shoulder lace Romona Keveza gown as she stood beneath the natural ceremony arch exchanging vows with Aaron. The navy and blush wedding party fashion influenced the decor throughout, as designed by M.C. Weddings & Events, who incorporated tall candles, earthy elements, and a clean aesthetic to fulfill Megan and Aaron’s vision.

The Couple:

Megan and Aaron

The Wedding:

Hacienda del Sol, Tuscon, Arizona

The Inspiration:

I am drawn to earthy color tones and knew I wanted a mostly white color palette. I imagined all white flowers with pops of green, ensuring a desert feel with succulents and other plants that were native to Tucson. I wanted my bridesmaids to stand out, so she chose navy and dusty rose for the girls’ dresses from Reformation, which is far from your typical ‘bridesmaid’ dresses — they even refer to them as “Babesmaids” dresses! I chose stunning king proteas for all of her girls to carry, one stem to enhance the drama of this gorgeous flower. For the reception, We both wanted a look that stood out from the original white table-clothed round tables you typically see at a wedding. We were drawn to farm house tables with dark brown wood for a more “family” feel as we wanted to ensure all guests felt like they were an extension of our family.

The Moments:

The ceremony because Pastor Dave did such an amazing job of ensuring the ceremony was very personable and unique to Aaron and myself. He had the crowd in stitches from laughing and tears of joy. We both wrote our owns vows to each other which made the moment even more special.

The Couple Recommends:

All of our vendors were incredible to work with! Meagan Crain of MC Events was an amazing person to have by our side through this process. Our wedding was technically ‘destination’ so we couldn’t have done the same things without Meagan there to guide us through the process. She helped us put our visions into reality and we will always thank her for her support!

Stunning-Italian-Wedding-at-Masseria-Torre-Coccarao-Aberrazioni-Cromatiche-Studio-3027

It’s hard to choose our favorite part of Nancy and Matt’s wedding, but the unique long-sleeved gown the stunning Masseria Torre Coccaro, and the golden hour portraits are definitely at the top of our list! Luckily, the photography + videography team at Aberrazioni Cromatiche Studio captured every gorgeous detail. We’re positively enamored with the neutral color palette of white, blush, and wood, which is absolutely perfect for an outdoor Italian wedding!

The Couple:

Nancy and Matt

The Wedding:

Masseria Torre Coccaro, Brindisi, Italy

The Inspiration:

The Masseria Torre Coccaro is a beautiful venue in a stunning location and did not want to distract from that. It is very traditional and we wanted our guests to enjoy the relaxed southern Italian vibe. With this in mind our floral design team worked tirelessly to create a simple yet effective them with classic roses, candles and favours. Steve at Screech creative also worked along side them helping to create spectacular invites and finishing touches that were personal to us.

The Moments:

The moment we both cherish the most is walking up the isle to greet each other at the chapel. It blew us away.

The Couple Recommends:

Nothing was too much trouble for ML Floral Design and their dedication put us at ease.
