Anna + Connor

Jun 20

Anna and Connor’s wedding day in May began in the cedar forest at Iris Aisle, where Connor waited for Anna to arrive for their private first look. Her whimsical, long-sleeve, white lace gown from BHLDN, complemented by a vibrant bouquet from Wildflower, with his sage green suit and pink boutonniere, set the tone for their nature-filled day. Following the couple’s first look, Anna did a second first look with her dad on our open-air patio (this versatile space is also perfect for cocktail hour). It was a sweet moment of reflection and joy between father and daughter before walking down the aisle.

The ceremony took place in our Conservatory, which is an all-white Victorian greenhouse flooded with natural light. This space comes alive with all your guests gathered amongst our lush ferns, tropical plants, and beautiful stained glass. At the altar, a hexagonal wooden arch was draped with flower magic from Wildflower DSM – matching Anna's bouquet of pink peonies, peach anemones, blush garden roses, delicate blue flowers, and eucalyptus greenery and framing the couple perfectly as they exchanged vows.

Post-ceremony, the celebration continued in our reception clearing. The setting was picturesque with our handmade wooden farm tables arranged in a long banquet style, showcasing the simplicity and elegance central to Iris Aisle’s charm. Dinner featured a fun and casual touch with a tater tot food truck serving up delightful dishes. After dinner, the Conservatory transformed into a vibrant dance floor where Anna and Connor danced as newlyweds with all their loved ones. Their wedding was a perfect celebration of love, simplicity, and nature, and their photographer, Andy Hewitt, did an amazing job capturing every moment.
