With a traditional fall color palette as our guide, we chose seasonal blooms and incorporated personal details into the day’s designs. Orange and burgundy local Dahlias as well as Broomcorn were combined with playful Gerber Daisies and Billy Balls for an overall youthful effect for the bouquets.
Anne is notorious among her family for painstakingly picking through pumpkin patches to find a perfect prize with a curly stem. As a nod to her yearly quest, her bouquet featured tightly wound Fiddleheads and I crafted green wire spirals for Steve’s boutonniere. The ring bearer carried a small sugar pumpkin with green wire detail and a twine tie for the rings (to match the wrap detail on the bouquets).
As can be the case, the weather in the Monadnock region weather proved a bit tricky, but Pam dodged a few brief rain showers and gusty winds to set up the outdoor ceremony. Once the sun came out it was just stunning.
We softened the stone terrace by placing large Boston Ferns atop the pillars that framed the alter aisle. Collections of Pumpkins and Gourds was peppered along the aisle and seating area as well. The mothers of the bride and groom carried small posies of burgundy Gerbers and Fiddleheads in place of the usual corsage.
Here is the proud ring bearer, who looks a little wired from the goodies he snuck from the candy bar! Also roaming the grounds pre-ceremony was the venue’s Chocolate Lab mascot who motors around in his cart making sure all the appropriate details are taken care of.
