{Ashley & Abdu @A La Carte Event Pavilion}

September 5, 2013 Carrie Wildes

Ashley seriously looked like a bride out of Vogue magazine. She had 2 wedding gowns, a GORGEOUS lace gown with a long train for the ceremony, and a simple sweet organza gown from the Anthropology Bridal Collection for the reception. It was a beautiful vintage inspired wedding with ivory, champagne, and blush as the color palette. Abdu's ring was made of dinosaur bone and meteorite, definitely unique! His dad was his best man and they wore classic black tuxes. Ashley had tears in her eyes as she started to walk down the long aisle in the grand hall. As I turned to take a picture of Abdu's reaction I heard a little gasp as he saw how gorgeous she looked walking towards him. After the ceremony, everyone was congratulating them and her grandmother and grandfather gave her sweet hugs as Ashley was still tearing up:-)

The tables were decorated with tall florals, crystals, and little vintage wooden birds for the table numbers. They had signature latte's and gelato for their guests to enjoy and their favor was a white chocolate covered spoon which I think you could use in either of those treats! During the reception we went out back on the dock as the sunset and it was a beautiful sky with a very blue hue as the sunset. Ashley surprised Abdu with a big chocolate groom's cake, they danced, and after a perfect evening exited with sparklers! Congrats Ashley and Abdu!!! xoxoxo
