Shannon & David's Colourful Garden Party Wedding

After David proposed on a romantic camping trip for two, Shannon brought her love of colour to their garden party wedding! Their pretty palette features pastel yellow, peach and pink with pops of succulents for an instant summer vibe. Don’t miss the fun pompom and confetti details carried from ceremony to reception, including their whimsical wedding cake!

The Dress

“Being a dressmaker, I always wanted to make my own wedding dress. I wanted something full length for the day, so I designed a tulle overskirt which could be removed during our first dance to reveal my lace party dress for the night. I introduced colour with a waistband made from the bridesmaid skirt fabric and added a giant bow at the back!”

The Ceremony

“An outdoor ceremony seemed like the perfect setting where our friends and family could relax, have some delicious food and drinks and play some lawn games. We used honeycomb balls to decorate our wedding arch, tassel garlands around the tables and lawn flamingos and games on the grass.”

Bridal Party Style

“I made the bridesmaids skirts and we found some gorgeous white crop tops to pair with them. We wanted a relaxed look for the groomsmen, so we bought chino pants, white shirts and pastel ties with polka dots to compliment the bridesmaids.”

Most Important

“We wanted our wedding to be as handmade as possible and have a lot of our friends and family involved in the process.”

The Reception

“I made bunting, pompom jars and glitter numbers to place on the tables along with our flowers and tea light candles. We also filled the fire place with balloons to create a fun and colourful style.”
