Grosse Pointe War Memorial Wedding
Taylor and Thomas hosted an enchanted forest-themed wedding this past summer. Their Grosse Pointe War Memorial wedding featured so many DIY elements, handcrafted by family and friends: from the veil, to the invites, to the favors, to the photo booth, to even the floral arrangements. The bride even wrote a fairytale that she broke up and placed from table to table, so when guests mingled they could follow along with the story of how she and her husband arrived at their happily ever after. The tone of the evening was utter enchantment, with dinner and dancing celebrated by candlelight.
