Lovely, soft details. Shabby chic with splashes of modern class.
You will probably remember Jeremy & Amanda from their Engagement Session. These two know how to throw an event. Every little detail was selected with love. What a beautiful day and a lovely time of celebration their wedding was!
New Town at St. Charles is a world unto itself… and you would think that it was designed especially for this lovely pair! The elegance of yesteryear and the convenience of today made this the perfect venue for Mr. and Mrs. Limones.
With touches of flair from the marvelous ladies over at Proposing Dreams, and flowery details by Lucky You… the stage was set for this grand affair!
I hope you enjoy some glimpses from Jeremy & Amanda’s day! Congratulations to a sweet and creative couple!
The following sequence of images are exactly why I love when a bride and groom choose to do a First Look session. What beautiful tender moments Jeremy & Amanda had together before the ceremony! Such a relaxed bride!
The beautiful necklace wrapped around Amanda’s bouquet is a family heirloom… such a great way to incorporate it into the details!
I couldn’t get enough of the adorable little ring-bearer in his mini-me suit and “official ring bearer” pin!
I thought it was so special that Jeremy’s father (a minister) was able to officiate the wedding. Jeremy’s sister did a beautiful reading for the couple, and his grandfather also played a part in the sweet ceremony.
Instead of a traditional candle or sand ceremony, Jeremy & Amanda had a Cord of Three Strandsceremony – also called “Gods Knot”. This was the first time I had heard of this and I am in love with this new tradition! Since this wedding, I have shared this with several brides who have chosen to go this route. This touching idea is inspired by Ecclesiastes 4:12 which says “A cord of three strands is not quickly broken”. The Gold Strand represents God, the Purple Strand represents the Groom, and the White Strand represents the Bride. Beautiful, isn’t it?!
Some other fun details:
Personalized jars of raw honey for their guests to take home. (useful and adorable!)
The centerpieces were all different styles of vintage and antique pitchers in the shades of J & A’s wedding colors
The father of the bride gave a very sweet and heartfelt speech at the reception
The bride changed into a sweet getaway dress… this is something I wish I would have done! All those buttons can be frustrating to try to undo by yourself! Have your bridesmaids help you with the buttons and send your gown with them to the cleaners or to take home. It’s a win-win!
One of the sweetest ceremony’s, and one of my favorite couples!
Jeremy & Amanda, congratulations to you both! (Oh, and Adam said to tell you that he is ready for another double-date! We still haven’t been to Pi and would love to go with you guys! :)
A big thank you to the ladies over at Proposing Dreams Weddings! (awesome St. Louis Wedding and Event planners!)
