Her bridesmaids were in shades of purple, ranging from plum to blush and matching the mixed bouquets perfectly. An outdoor wedding has less formality and structure than an inside ceremony; so it\u2019s such a gorgeous idea to match the unstructured beauty that\u2019s found in nature by playing with dress colours, and styles, and by mixing up the florals. Jordan and his groomsmen opted for suave blue suits with contrasting ties, matching the bridesmaids and flowers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The used plenty of natural wooden tones through their day, with a timer archway, vintage wooden doors and stained announcement boards. This was mixed with fresh greenery and soft white fabric, to add a little romance to the surroundings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I love the vintage crockery and old style keys they used for their reception, and the pretty vintage style cake stand created the perfect centrepiece.
