The Art of Simple Elegance ~ Patricia and Adam
A couple of weeks ago, we featured an incredibly fun floral photo shoot that Courtenay Lambert sent to us. Pure and passionate fun! {here}
Courtenay also sent us some gorgeous images from one of her winter weddings … Patricia and Adam’s elegant November celebration that we think you’ll love as well …
from Patricia …
We wanted the wedding to be simple but classy – The Lyceum was the perfect back drop to create such a feeling. Combined with the flowers, candles, music, food, and champagne!! It was perfect!. The gold dresses and accents were a nice nod to the holidays without being too much. Since the wedding was in November, which can be dreadful in Cincinnati, the gold helped keep things warm and inviting. With our move to Switzerland 2 months prior to the wedding, we wanted to bring a few touches of Switzerland – The Swiss Chocolates were direct from the Lindt factory here in Zurich, Switzerland; the Swiss theme Cookies were made by “Cake Creations by Sue”, and the Swiss flag baggage tags were used for table assignments and then kept as favours. It was an easy way for us to provide our new contact information as well as open up an invite for visitors.
Simple and classy … warm and inviting … perfect …
Courtenay’s gorgeous bouquets and centerpieces added just the right amount of color to the elegant color scheme used throughout the wedding.
Patricia’s make-up was done by one of Cincinnati’s best … Little Black Book vendor, Brideface. Seriously ~ look at the close-ups … just beautiful.
{And by the way, Nancy has really great beauty and make-up advice on her Brideface blog.}
Patricia’s wedding gown was by Nicole Miller. Her stunning coat was custom-made by … an unnamed designer. (So sorry … we definitely WILL try to get that information for you!)

Congratulations Patricia & Adam … and thanks to Courtenay Lambert Florals for sharing their wedding with us!
Everything about this wedding is gorgeous, but the detail that stood out most to me was... the cake! :)
The BM Dresses are gorgeous!
LOVE the Nicole Miller dress... ok, that's cause I have the same one!! Can't wait to wear it!! These pictures are gorgeous, and that jacket?!?! SWOON!!
Absolutely must do the Swiss cookies... how cute!! Are there any pictures of the luggage tags?

Fabulous work from Courtenay and Nancy!
Thanks all. I've emailed the bride on the seemstress for the jacket, and I will check with Steph Carson, the photographer, to see if she has any shots of the luggage tags.
I love pure elegance in weddings. Can someone please tell me where the bride's clutch came from? That's the only piece I'm missing for my wedding and I think hers is adorable.

Love the coat, please do try and find out where it came from. I would LOVE to know!

Do some tables have floral centerpieces and some tables have candle ones? Or do the candles surround the flowers?
