It's Official: Wedding Season is HERE!!! Its time for ALL Brides to finally show off ALL their hard work that they spent hours upon hours planning for their perfect wedding day! This past weekend I experienced a very savvy and beautiful wedding at Blackberry Ridge Golf Course & Event Center in Sartell, Minnesota. From beginning to end - every detail was covered! To the place cards & menu (Watermark Stationary ~ Wayzata, Minnesota) to the flowers (Freeport Floral ~ Freeport, Minnesota), to the Linens (We've Got It Covered ~ St. Cloud, MN), to the Food & Beverages (Blackberry Ridge Golf Course & Event Center) and even to the Entertaining DJ (Adam Welz ~ www.adamwelz.com)! Everything was Perfect to a "T" ~
This is why this wedding was so perfectly organized and flowed nicely together! From beginning to end everything was planned accordinly and had a purpose! First off the colors coordinated amazingly (Teal, Light Pink, Ivory) - You could actually notice all the different highlights from each color! Nothing seemed to go on noticed, but at the same time still had that pop! The Pink was in the Flowers, the Teal was in the Candles and the Linens, the Ivory was in the Linen Napkins, Flowers, Place Cards, Menus and even the Chair Covers! Beautiful & Clever!
Guests started arriving at 5:00pm - they noticed the guest book, which was in a formal picture frame with a engagement photo of the lovely couple. Guests were welcomed to sign or give congratulating praises on the matted frame. Next - guests walked into a round table that was covered in a gorgeous rosette ivory table linen, which was where the place cards were located. Each place card demonstrated where the guest would be seated and what dinner entree they would be having that evening. A Great Detail was shown in the Place Cards by using hydrangeas. Pink Hydrangeas represented that the guest would be having the Baked Chicken Parmesan with Mornay Sauce and the Teal Blue Hydrangea represented that the guest would be having the Beef Tenderloin Tips with Burgundy Sauce. Very thoughtful! During the Social Hour - Guests were enjoying the room and also the outdoor patio that overlooked Blackberry Ridge Golf Course - 18th Hole. Hors D' Oeuvres were being Butler and Guests were enjoying their Complimentary beverages - either wine, beer and the Bride's Specialty Drink (TEAL)! Dinner was served shortly after 7 - when each guest arrived at their seat a menu explained what they will be having for dinner that evening. The 1st course (Blackberry's House Salad with Homemade Blackberry Vinaigrette) started with 1 wine pour before salads, following with another wine pour before Dinner, and than finished with 3 different Cake choices for Dessert (Cold Spring Bakery). Nicely Done!
