Gorgeous Outdoor Wedding in March

Couple on the edge of the yellow river in March

Winnie and Justin tied the knot on an absolutely gorgeous March evening on the banks of the Yellow River.  A lovely time of year for an outdoor wedding!

Winnie wore a beautiful open-back a-line gown with gorgeous lace three quarter length sleeves and bodice with a little beading. This gown also had a flowing chiffon skirt. She also wore a cathedral length veil and carried a bouquet of white roses.   Her bridesmaids wore a lovely shade of deep gray. They wore full-length gowns with ruched detailing on the top and carried bouquets with the same white roses as the bride’s, just smaller. Justin and his groomsmen wore a very unique shade of dark gray/dark navy suits that contrasted really well with the girl’s gowns.  They also had white rose boutonnieres that complimented the ladies’ bouquets. 

Before the ceremony, Winnie surprised Justin with a “first look” upon the flagstone aisle and he was all smiles! The arbor at the ceremony was draped with white flowers and greenery that looked fabulous with their color scheme. You can tell there was a lot of thought put into their wedding since Winnie DIY’d a lot of the decor – and it was stunning! A fun feature of their wedding ceremony was a romantic butterfly-release to signify their soaring love!

After they said their vows everyone entered the reception that was decorated with candles, mirrors, and stunning arrangements of white roses in glass fishbowls – all handmade by Winnie! Would you believe she even put together her own bouquets? So much talent!

At the end of the reception Winnie and Justin took their leave through a loving tunnel of friends and family who were waving them through with fun paper lanterns – we love this idea and the photos were spectacular!
