Victoria and Sam celebrated their wedding on a hot July day at Addison Park in central New Jersey, but the afternoon heat during their bilingual ceremony didn’t put a damper on their personalized vows. Afterward, guests found their seating assignments via mini handmade airplanes which paid tribute to the groom’s job in the aeronautical industry.

Victoria wanted a colorful palette of hot pink and peach shades that played out in lots of lush blooms and orchids. They also used these colors in an ombré fashion in their rose petal aisle runner and in their candy bar which was a huge hit during their reception. Guests danced the night away to Latin and Top 40’s music while enjoying an assortment of mini desserts at each table and a photobooth for some extra fun.

FROM THE BRIDE

“Every detail of my wedding was perfect and it was all because of Alicia. She kindly reminded me of approaching deadlines (as I have the tendency to procrastinate) and ensured every detail was in place so that I could have peace of mind on the day of my wedding.

Alicia recommended wedding details I never even imagined such as airplane place cards (as my husband works in aviation) that truly made our wedding personal to us as a couple. She also recommended money-saving tips and explained what details of a wedding had the most impact so that we could focus our attention on those as we were on a tight budget.

When I broke down in tears when I found out peonies were not in season, she worked with the florist to make sure I loved every detail and believe it or not, the final product even mimicked the look of peonies!

I was able to enjoy every moment of my wedding day because I had complete confidence in Alicia, knowing she was in control of every aspect of my wedding. She was more than I could have asked for as a wedding planner and I can't wait to plan my vow renewal with her at the reins!”
