Blake & CJ’s sophisticated and stylish celebration at Water Works was a wonderful way to kick off the spring wedding season! We had a blast capturing their dreamy vintage-inspired wedding, complete with a chauffeured ride in a classic 1964 Rolls Royce from First Class Luxury Limos! Blake was the picture of elegance in her Monique Lhuillier gown, bringing the Audry Hepburn vibes with her classic beauty, charming personality, and impeccable sense of style.
With Water Works’ river views inspiring the color theme, pops of blue were seen in the groom’s midnight blue tux from Enzo Custom and throughout the decor. Beautiful Blooms transformed the reception with tall gold stands and low gold vases filled with arrangements of white and dark blue hydrangea and roses. Gold mercury votives, string lighting, and loose greenery perfectly set a timeless and intimate atmosphere for family and friends. These two sweeties ended their beautiful celebration by blissfully dancing the night away under the tent on the pavilion overlooking the river and city lights.
So grateful to have their wedding featured in Modern Luxury Weddings!
