Real wedding: White florals and a furry friend

Kama and Jamie married on a sunny day in Florida surrounded by their friends and family.

Their wedding party was full of their best friends, including one furry one! Little Piper the English bulldog was an extra special flower girl, walking down the aisle to celebrate the couple’s day with them! I love the extra personal touches this day had, from the Jenga pieces that their guests signed to help them build memories of their wedding, to the floral wall that the bride and her friend crafted together, the beautiful day was planned to perfection.

Kama’s Marina Liana dress had seven layers of lace and sweet pearl buttons that stretched down the back. She accessorised with a cathedral length circle veil and a pair of Jimmy Choos, although these were swapped out for a pair of Adidas Yeezy Boosts for the reception! Her ‘something old’ was a pair of diamond drop earrings that were her mum’s. Jamie was all in black, sporting a Calvin Klein tuxedo and shoes, a perfect match to the chic black and white wedding.

Bridesmaids matched the groom in black Hailey Paige dresses with mis-matched tops and the same chiffon skirt. This is such a good idea if your friends have differing tastes, it gives them a chance to personalise their outfit. Little flower girls had ivory dresses with lace tops to match the bride. As did Piper the dog – with lace top and tulle skirt, she strutted her stuff down the aisle along with the other bridesmaids!

The ceremony took place outside with rows of clear chairs decorated with white roses and the aisle strewn with petals. Strings of lights stretched to the chuppah, decorated with twisted twigs and more beautiful white roses.

The floral wall was created by the bride and her best friend to give a backdrop for photos and to add to the beautiful florals that were such a big part of the day. The table décor followed the black and white colour palette with black napkins and menus with chic white calligraphy. Guests then danced the night away on the personalised dancefloor in custom flip flops under the stars and twinkling lights.
