Rachael Ellen Events opted for colorful and accessible blooms to create the bride’s spring bouquet in a vibrant summer palette. The arrangement of roses, hellebore, daffodils, and sweet peas were a cheerful combination, with a blue silk ribbon that added a splash of color against the bride’s wedding dress!

A classic A-line wedding dress from The Perfect Dress found a modern update thanks to the floral damask print and structured strapless bodice. The stunning gown combined a timeless silhouette with subtle modern details to offer the perfect look for a bride who wants something unique without going over the top.

Hair and makeup artist Simply Mindy played into that desire for timeless meets trending with the bride’s look – the softly deconstructed updo and focus on dramatic lashes created just the right balance.

The terrace of the Thomas S Monson Center ballroom was the perfect spot for Rachael Ellen Events to create her dream venue. The elegant space offered a blank canvas with a classic background, so she used the backdrop for a simple design with a strong impact.
