Nikoletta & Andy: Bella Collina Wedding
What do you do when your 2020 wedding is thrown for a loop? First, due to a global pandemic, and then rain is forecasted during your outdoor wedding ceremony…you do what Nikoletta and Andy did and you lean on your planner and venue! Their beautiful Bella Collina Wedding was a memorable and love filled day that I was honored to plan and design.
Bridal Floral
With a fall wedding, the bride stuck with a rich and romantic color palette. I adore the shade of burgundy for her bridesmaids. And while each chose a custom style, I created a classic nosegay bouquet for each to carry. For the bride, her bouquet was a classically styled nosegay with creamy floral and eucalyptus. The guys looked handsome and wore a classic single-stemmed boutonniere.
Before the ceremony, Nikoletta and Andy did a private first look. And the pictures say it all. These two were so sweet and I loved being part of their special day!
The Ceremony
While we had planned to host the wedding ceremony on the lawn, Mother Nature decided to show up. But with their custom Blossoms Arrangement of Distinction floral arch, the ballroom at Bella Collina was transformed into a romantic garden. Full blooms in shades of ivory and white were mixed with pops of reds. Delicate greenery lightly fell against the draped fabric.
Let’s Party
After the ceremony, it was time to celebrate. The bride and groom walked into the reception ballroom to a round of applause from their friends and family. They went right into a choreographed first dance – complete with personal fireworks!
As the night went on, the happy couple continued to celebrate with their guests. After dinner and toasts, it was time to hit the dance floor. And while the sunset, the party was just getting started.
While Nikoletta and Andy’s Bella Collina wedding had a few twists and turns along the way, the end result was a beautiful celebration that will be remembered for years to come. Congrats!
