About the day:

M’Lissa and Mark’s spring wedding at The Bower was the perfect mix of elegance and playful colors. The day began with the kind of spring rain that makes everything feel fresh and alive—but not without a little suspense! As we drove to the venue, the sky opened up and poured. It rained right up until the moment we were about to begin their first look. Then, like magic, the clouds cleared, the sun peeked through, and we were treated to beautiful weather for the rest of the day.

M’Lissa and Mark chose a color palette that screamed spring joy—hot pink accented by pops of light pink, sunshine yellow, orange, and soft blues. The bold, lively arrangements brought so much energy to the space and tied together the colorful, fun atmosphere of the day. To complement the vibrant pink theme, Mark and M’Lissa brought in a stunning round pink bar that became a stylish centerpiece of the reception. Guests gathered around to enjoy the couple’s signature cocktails — Mark’s refreshing rum punch and M’Lissa’s sweet and tangy Hibiscus Berry Smash — adding an extra layer of fun to the celebration. The pink bar not only elevated the atmosphere but also became the perfect spot for mingling and toasting to the newlyweds.

The bridesmaids looked radiant in mismatched pinks and a variety of textures, adding so much personality and dimension to the photos. M’Lissa’s bridal look was show-stopping: a sparkly gown that shimmered in the light, topped off with a playful bow on the back that added the perfect touch of fun personality.

One of the highlights of the day was M’Lissa’s outfit change before the reception. She switched things up with a new hairstyle—a fun and bouncy party pony—and stepped into a short, flirty dress paired with hot pink Nikes. It was such a fun reflection of her personality and a perfect way to kick off the dance floor.

This day was full of color, laughter, and the kind of joy that makes you smile long after the wedding is over. M’Lissa and Mark, thank you for letting me be a part of such a memorable and joy-filled celebration!
