Michigan Wedding At The Townsend Hotel From Gourmet Invitations
This is a tough one! Tifany at Gourmet Invitations sent us these beautiful images from the amazing photographers at The Shooting Gallery of Shannon and Aaron’s wedding, and it’s nearly impossible to rave about this wedding enough! Shannon’s to-die-for gown. The unbelievable art nouveau invitations. The edgy photography and gorgeous florals … well, you be the judge!
And from Tifany’s website …
According to Tifany, the invitation design was born from Shannon’s exquisite dress …
And from there … a fairytale dream come true celebration!
LOVE this shot … {Aaron is a chef}
LOTS more photos of Shannon and Aaron’s invitation suite on Gourmet Invitation’s blog!
Our THANKS to The Shooting Gallery for sharing these gorgeous images!
And here, from Shannon, their wedding “inspiration” …
I got my Lazaro gown at a trunk show at Macy’s State Street in Chicago. My Mom flew to Chicago for the weekend to attend the trunk show with me – Lazaro was there and drew a sketch of me in the dress … Super cool! I gave our floral designers at Blossoms a picture of my dress and that’s all. We knew whatever Norm & Dale did would be beautiful. Dale had suggested having a mini pocket on our place cards with the name of the guest on the outside- and a card on the inside with the table number and their entree choice. We met with Tifany and she made it happen! She also designed the custom menus (each guest’s name and their specific entree choice) ~ they were just perfect. The boxed invitations were beautiful and a result of us throwing around a few ideas- they morphed into the neatest invites I’ve ever seen. Aaron’s artistic side had the idea of using shadow boxes and mini stones to display the place cards.
How We Planned Our Wedding: We really and truly planned the wedding 100% together. We chose all of our vendors with the ‘coffee test’- if we met them and wanted to go have coffee with them- they were the one!
Congratulations on a positively stunning wedding!!

Wow ! Love the dress and flowers !
It's the second bride wearing this gown on SMP : remember this other amazing wedding : http://www.stylemepretty.com/2009/01/02/kevin-and-elles-glamorous-affair-by-twin-lens/
(you can't forget such a wonderful gown !)
i saw that gown on say yes to the dress! so pretty.
Her dress is really different. I wasn't sure if I liked it at first, but it really goes with their ceremony.
I love their menu and save the dates. I wonder if they had a calligrapher do their envelopes. I was looking into that but it's too expensive (as in not worth the price). I'll probably go with clear address labels from Bachcroft.
I hope my wedding turns out to be this stylish :)
Yes, they have featured this dress on Say Yes to the Dress! Awesome photos, love the invitations!
Beautiful dress and train!
The paper here is spectacular, divine, exciting - and many more adjectives meaning 'it rocks' !
The bride looks stunning in that dress and the flowers are a perfect garnish. Fabulous!
I know Shannon! Congrats Shannon! I have always loved these photos...the dress is SO beautiful and so fitting for your personality!
Simply BEAUTIFUL ! Chic, glam and Sexy!

If Shannon isn't a model, she sure could be. That dress is so incredible and made for her. Beautiful wedding... so many stunning details. Love the invites... and the rest of the stationery!
