Kiersten and Jake’s Earthy Lord of the Rings Inspired Wedding

When Kiersten and Jake reached out, they wanted to have a chill, outdoor wedding at a personal residence. During our consultation they shared how much they love playing games, D&D, and Lord of the Rings. They even got engaged when they finished reading the books together. We played around with ideas, and decided a great way to share the story of Kiersten and Jake, was to incorporate some Lord of the Rings ‘flavor’. Kiersten had gorgeous ear pieces that represented elf ears, the colors were earthy greens and regal purples, the guest box was carved wood with elvish text, and Leelee's Garden made a gorgeous arch incorporating many gorgeous twigs, and deep greens to give off forest vibes. There was even moss used down the aisle.

Beyond the Lord of the Rings vibes, it was a very relaxing and playful reception. Guests got to play giant lawn games, mingle, sip on cocktails, dance with jams from Groove is in the Heart, and grab some BBQ buffet from Sweet Baby Rays.

Fierce Moments

The arch Leelee made was gorgeous! Felt like a piece right out of Tolkein’s world. The lawn games were also a huge hit. The couple had a giant game of Jenga set up, and two guests had a real close game going. It was amazing to see the whole party stop and watch the game—Everyone was interested in finding out who was going to topple the giant blocks!
