Flying High at Eagle Ridge

In honor of their one year anniversary, I decided to highlight Danielle and Tim's wedding at the Eagle Ridge Golf Course in Lakewood, NJ. This venue has beautiful atmosphere to begin with with it's darker color decor, taupe-ish colored chairs with deep brown trim, complete with darker colored chandeliers and sconces. So bringing in a caramel color enhanced with champagne seen throughout the bridesmaids' wear and accessories was a great choice in sticking with the scheme. For another smart move, lightening things up with pops of bright and light pinks for flowers, made everything come together in a very luxurious way. Since the couple was headed to Hawaii on their honeymoon, you could spot pieces of the island here and there whether it be through small pineapple symbols or the giant pineapple fruit display. The cocktail hour was on the outdoor patio accompanied by a steel drum band to really bring in that islandy feel. And a Mets ice sculpture was incorporated for the groom. Also inside, beautiful linen invaded by swrils of champagne added to the vintage-type feel the bride hoped to incorporate. She really captured that aspect in her Maggie Sottero gown though embellished with a golden lace undtertone and caramel/gold beading. Tall elaborate centerpieces created even more romance in the room. And of course, the outdoors did lead to some beautiful snapshots!

Although this was a summer wedding, I think Eagle Ridge would also be great for an Autumn wedding!
