Starting a new life together is one of the biggest moments of your life, and where better to start than at the Green Bay Botanical Garden? Our bride is radiant in a Cizzy Bridal Australia gown; her groom goes all-in for vibrant color in a bright blue suit, complete with coordinating boutonniere and gilt tie from Generation Tux.

Set the course for the events to come with this joyous invitation suite by DCo Lovenotes, with a poppy as happy harbinger of a colorful spring wedding. The minimalist invitation spells out the details in a mix of carefree script and understated sans-serif, with touches of coral and pink softening the suite.

Bring a bit of the outdoors in to keep the garden theme going with a spare pergola-style installation, accented with flowing greenery. The structure frames a table alive with color thanks to imaginatively styled bouquets and a graceful centerpiece candelabra.

Tasty tarts and pastries await, with bite-sized short stacks of fluffy miniature pancakes by RYE Restaurant, along with doughnuts galore: maple-glazed, confetti topped with house-made vanilla buttercream and sprinkles and rich double chocolate.

A scene-stealing carrot cake by MDelish Bakery Boutique swathed in golden frosting adds a mix of bold florals for a natural look. The bride’s unstructured bouquet nods to the day’s casual vibe. Sunny yellows and oranges mingle with deep, bold reds that add a touch of drama.
