A Bejeweled Fall Lakeside Wedding

Jewel tones, fall in Madison, and a genuine love of flowers… all of these created the perfect recipe for a gorgeous autumnal wedding day. Sarah & Tim hosted their beautiful celebration at The Edgewater in the heart of downtown Madison. After a lovely ceremony outside on the Plaza, guests moved indoors for cocktails and hors d’ouevres. Sarah and Tim kicked off dinner in style with a champagne tower pour, letting guests know they were ready to celebrate!

When designing with these two, we were inspired by the deep, saturated tones within a traditional fall palette and, of course, Sarah’s love for flowers, and therefore chose deeply colored blooms paired with rich patterned floral-print linens as accents. The ballroom was perfectly glowy thanks to a variety of taper and votive candles, and Briar Loft‘s floral inclusions were, as always, absolutely exquisite.

Sarah and Tim’s timeless looks paired perfectly with their stylish wedding party outfits – even the invitation suite reflected the tones donned by the wedding party to create one cohesive color story from beginning to end! We always appreciate the opportunity to weave those intentional details throughout the design.

Cheers to you, Sarah & Tim! We are honored to have been a part of your gorgeous day, and wish you all the love and joy there can be!
