BRIDE’S INSPIRATION
Going with an art nouveau/art deco theme, Heather Pile of Inspired Grace Weddings used patterns and bold color to create a distinct nostalgia and panache from the 1920s, ‘30s and ‘40s.

HOW THEY CUSTOMIZED
“The playlist we chose and the band itself made a tremendous difference. We really wanted our choice in music to set the mood and enhance the vision we had created. Music is so important to us, and it really made everything come together,” the bride said. Invitations and programs were designed using their art deco motif. Gifts to the bridesmaids, mothers and groomsmen were all labors of love, consisting of items like vintage teacups and saucers, lockets, handkerchiefs, cigar boxes and heartfelt notes.

HOW THEY SAVED
“Tanarah and Steven of Tanarah Luxe Floral did a great job creating stunning arrangements with things that were readily available. Choosing alternatives to flowers that were exotic or not in season allowed us to save significantly. Like impeccable style, the key to a successful budget is editing,” the bride said.
