3 2 1 The Details How they did it 1 6 Paige chose a natural look for her bouquet, with an assortment of bright gerber daisies, sunflowers and roses. The bouquet, arranged by Art Knapp, added a dramatic flourish of colour to her gown, a design by Priscilla of Boston that Paige purchased at Blush Bridal. "I loved the fabric, a silk satin, and the baby pearl buttons going down the back," Paige says. "The small crystals and pearl details were unique and not overwhelmingly bling-y, and the gown was light and easy to move in." 2 Tables at the wedding reception were decorated with antique tea cups from the couple's aunts and grandparents. "We thought they looked neat and matched with the vintage theme of our décor," Paige says. 3 Manteo Resort's Wild Apple Restaurant and Lounge prepared raw and cooked oysters for the wedding reception, serving them on a plank. 4 The reception, held on the grounds of Paige's family home, was casual and low-key, with dinner served cocktail- and seating lounge-style. The tent and some of the tables, chairs and sofas were by All Occasions Rentals. Other unique pieces of furniture were gathered from family and friends, and some were created especially for the wedding, with Paige's father at the helm of the project. Décor for the tent was a collaborative effort by family and friends, particularly Paige's mother, who was head of creative inspiration. 5 5 Kelvin wore a slim fit, grey, Calvin Klein tuxedo from Tip Top Tailor, accented with a yellow gerber daisy and a thistle. 6 Paige grew up around horses, and loved her red cowboy boots the moment she set eyes on them. "They were something different that I wouldn't normally buy for myself," she says. "They also made more sense than wearing high heels." 4 The Dream Team Venue - Reception Runaway Ranch, Kelowna, BC www.runawayranchweddings.com Photographer Glen Durrell www.glendurrell.com Bridal Consultant & Planner Kezia Addison kezia@addison.ca Bride's Dress Priscilla of Boston, Blush Bridal www.blushoccasions.com Bridesmaid Dresses Jim Hjelm, After Five www.afterfivefashion.com Groom & Groomsmen Calvin Klein, Tip Top Tailors www.tiptop.ca Stationery Tina Prichard www.ilycreative.com Flowers Art Knapps www.artknapp.com Catering Chef Bernard Cassavant, Manteo Resort www.manteo.com Cake P.J.'s Cakes www.pjscakes.com Disc Jockey Jeff Hay aka DJ Haymaker www.djhaymaker.com r View more images from Glen Durrell http://goo.gl/P6eKB 62 RW21_part 1.indd 62 r ea l weddings 9/19/11 3:25:32 PM
