Firestone Vineyard Wedding by Sweet Emilia Jane + Nancy Neil Photography
This is one of those pinch-me-is-this-real weddings. The kind that leaves a warm, fuzzy feeling in your heart because the couple is just too lovely, the flowers by The Floral Lab arranged impeccably down to the very last petal, the hair by Megan Wayt so wildly pretty and all those gorgeous details by Sweet Emilia Jane crafted so effortlessly. What I’m trying to convey in an uber long-winded, way too many superlatives kind of way is that this wedding is freaking GORGEOUS and it has a whole lot of images by Nancy Neil Photography to prove it. See them here!

From Emilia Jane of Sweet Emilia Jane… Devon and Jake are about as sweet a couple as you’ll ever meet. As high school sweethearts, they have a love that is refreshing, genuine and easy. They are both super smart, charming and were such a delight to get to know. Right away, I knew that I was going to love designing and planning for them. With a venue like Firestone, you can’t really go wrong, but we wanted to make Devon and Jake’s wedding true to them with loads of personal touches and handcrafted decor. Since both have an affinity for the 1960s, the overall vibe of the event had a rustic, flower child kind of feel with giant orange, yellow and tie-dyed kraft paper pinwheels, wood table runners and seasonal flowers in vintage milk glass vases. There were many highlights throughout the evening, including the school bus ride for all the guests (reminiscent of Devon and Jake’s school days together), a hay wagon ride for the bride and bridesmaids to the ceremony spot, the phenomenal pies in lieu of wedding cake by Crust by Stephanie Jayne and the all-night dance party. Nancy Neil totally captured the whimsical, laid-back yet elegant day perfectly.

Mmm, that pie looks lovely. The Firestone Vineyard also looks like a lovely wedding venue. Down in central Illinois, there's the Mackinac vineyard which throws a party every fall, and we've seen a few weddings there. Vineyards in general seem like a rather neat place to tie the knot.

Where is the seating chart from? I love it!

Hazel - I actually made the seating chart for them on a roll of kraft paper...it actually went all the way to the floor. It was one of my favorite pieces from the day. I'll actually be offering custom ones in my etsy shop - http://www.etsy.com/shop/sweetemiliajane .
The bridesmaids dresses were Priscilla of Boston in bisque but, unfortunately, they have closed their salons. :(

Wow! I think I "pinned" the whole thing. Every detail was better than the last. I love using the dark stained board as a table runner.

Thanks everyone! We were very fortunate to find such great people to work with to make our wedding a reality. We enjoyed every moment of it!!
For those of you that have been asking, our pie topper was from an Etsy shop called Better Off Wed. My shoes were from Nordstrom (BP brand and the shoe is called "Platinum Twirl Sandal"). They were super inexpensive but exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you Emilia, Devon, and Jake for making me part of the team on this super special day. Firestone is such a beautiful and serene location. All weddings should be this gorgeous.
