Luxe Vintage Wedding Planned By The Added Touch

Alexandra and Ward’s luxe vintage wedding included nods to their families, their personalities and… their favorite jam! The dark red color scheme was inspired by the homemade blueberry jam favors the couple made from scratch for each of their guests to take home, and the touches of wine, maroon, plum and gold lent themselves perfectly to the luxe vintage feel of their classic and romantic affair planned by Daniella of The Added Touch. Alexandra donned a classic dark red pout and updo from Blushworthy for a timeless look. Guests danced the night away, thanks to LG Entertainment, before Alexandra and Ward left in a classic Rolls Royce Phantom! Cheers to the happy couple!

From the bride: “Our wedding day was absolutely wonderful! After almost a full year of planning, the day came together better than I could have ever expected. The entire color theme for the wedding was based on the favors – homemade blueberry jam. Ward and I picked the blueberries ourselves and made the jam with the help of my mother. The dark red color of the jam inspired the wine accents throughout my wedding. It was the perfect favor for people to take home that Ward and I had poured so much love into. We wanted everyone to fully appreciate how much it meant for them to attend our wedding.”
