I had the honor of helping Melissa and David plan their June wedding at Aria in Minneapolis and let me tell you.. I just loved working with this fun family!! It all started last year when I had the honor of planning Melissa’s sister Jenni’s wedding at Nicollet Island Pavillion. Two sisters getting married 8 months apart…. now that’s a busy year for all of the friends and family involved!!
When Melissa hired us she already had the venue and a handful of vendors.. so our services were geared toward helping her and David design the wedding they had envisioned in Aria. Melissa ended up picking a very soft mauve bridesmaids dress color and we geared most of the floral and stationery to this fresh, summery color palette. It helped to soften up the very industrial and dark wedding venue to make it feel like a secret garden in the middle of the city. The hanging greenery and lights structure by PHOS and Sadie’s Floral was the piece that I thought gave the most impact to the room. It not only helped to lighten up the space, but also gave a beautiful and magical feel to the space!
