A sweet and romantic wedding dress with asymmetrical layers of organza and flower detail by Alvina Valenta is accented by a simple yet elegant knee length bridesmaid dress by Siri in brown.  This springtime wedding features vibrant shades of pink infused with warm brown, soft yellow, and classic ivory.  The reception tables are draped in simple ivory linens and are topped with subtle pink floral centerpieces.  Instead of indulging in cake, the guests are served delicious french style macaroons in raspberry, chocolate, lemon, and coconut flavours.  At the end of the evening, everyone is sent home with a bottle of handmade citrus bubble bath to remind them of this vibrant springtime wedding.
