Reaching Home Plate!!

Do you remember the story we featured here from November entitled "Home Plate Glory"?  Well, if you don't remember, the groom proposed to the bride at Coors Field on home plate (since their first date was at a Rockies game when he "tricked" her into a date) and they decided to have their wedding here at Tapestry House!  The reception was absolutely gorgeous and the personal details and thought that the couple put into planning it was beautiful to see.  This wedding was definitely all about the details!!  One of the unique details that we haven't seen displayed in quite this manner before was their love story and photos from both the bride and groom's childhood!  This beautiful display was assembled on site by the father and mother of the bride and it created a wonderful focal point at the reception!  It listed important dates in their relationship and helped guests to better know each of them by looking at their childhood photographs.


Not only did they create a unique display of their love story, but they added a lot of other personal details, too.  The candle holders wrapped in lace displayed on some of the tables were made by the bride, as well as the reserved table signs.  They also had a coffee bar with specialty coffees brewed by Everyday Joe's Coffee House.  The sign displaying the coffee choices was again made by the bride.  We absolutely loved all of her personal details and the planning that went into making she and husband's dream reception a reality!

The reception featured a live band instead of a DJ, which was fun!  The tables looked beautiful with the bride's candles and the flowers provided by the florist.  They also had some delicious-looking desserts from Strawberry Champagne Cupcakes to Tiramisu as well as some more traditional cakes.

Another detail that we loved was this couple's gift and favor table!  Now, some may not think about ways to get creative with this aspect of the wedding, but this couple did!  They had a beautiful birdcage to hold any cards they received and a handmade sign that instructed "Flowers for growing" on one side and "Flowers for throwing" on the other.  They had wildflower seed packets that were personalized with their names and wedding date as favors for their guests as well as sheet music cones holding flower petals to be thrown at the end of the evening.


We absolutely loved working with this couple and seeing their reception come to life with their personal details!  We wish you both all the best as you embark on your new life together!!
