Grace and Christopher’s wedding at The Box Milwaukee<\/a> is the ultimate vintage botanical inspiration! The couple incorporated whimsical DIY details in their cabaret-style wedding such as multicolored escort cards, tabletop greenery planted by the bride, and the sweetest ceremony rug hooked by the bride’s grandmother. We think Grace’s Lost in Paris<\/a> lace gown and Christopher’s botanical print tie add the coolest touches of vintage whimsy to their wedding! Studio-29 Photography + Design<\/a> captured Grace and Christopher’s day beautifully, including an especially gorgeous first look that includes the couple’s dog.<\/p>\n

The “first look” in the park near our home was a quiet and intimate moment before the buzz of the wedding ceremony and reception.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chris and I were very lucky to work with Ren and Caleb of Studio-29 Photography. Caleb met with Chris and Ren met with me as we got ready. They were the only ones around when we had our “first look” and we had a fun and excited car ride together to the venue. They took the formality out of being in front of the camera and produced photos beyond our expectations.<\/em><\/p>\n

Additionally, I made all of the name cards and with the help of a friend, all of the paper heart toothpicks for the doughnut tower.<\/em><\/p>\n

Don’t be afraid to go outside of what is customary. We had a short ceremony led by a judge in the venue that served as both a ceremony and reception space. The food was from our favorite taco restaurant and the “cake” was a tower of doughnuts. We also chose to forgo a wedding party, programs, favors, and a lengthy guest list. Although these were non-traditional choices, they ended up being well received and embraced by our guests.<\/em><\/p>\n

I planted all of the plants for the centerpieces and created the gold wire table numbers.<\/em><\/p>\n

My grandmother hooked a rug that we stood on during the ceremony. I wore my great-grandmothers pearl necklace and carried my late grandmothers handkerchief.<\/em><\/p>\n
