We were in for a treat when we arrived for Shanie & Ian’s wedding! We’d met with them earlier this year and they told us about their active involvement in animal (namely parrot) rescuing. We figured there’d be some feathers in the decor, but we were definitely blown away by how everything came together.

Shanie & Ian gave Bessie’s Florals tons of feathers from their birds to incorporate in the decor, and the result was gorgeous! We loved the tropical colors and elements throughout the day. The hibiscus flowers were gorgeous and everything blended into the surroundings of Adventures on the Gorge with ease.

And somehow after 7 years of weddings we’d never experienced a pool party wedding reception before! It was so much fun to see people (still fully clothed in their wedding outfits) dive into the pool, then hop back out onto the dancefloor. We need more pool party wedding receptions in our life!!
