A Waterfront Ceremony at The White Poplar

A Waterfront Ceremony

Chaye & Tanner wanted a beautiful waterfront ceremony and a great reception space and when they found The White Poplar they had to look no further!  They have a pond right on the property that made the perfect backdrop for their big day! With 70 acres of treed land, there was no shortage of great photo opportunities as well! They started the day off with a first look and Tanner’s reaction was priceless! It is truly wonderful that we get to see so much love in our job!

They decided to get creative and do some DIY projects for their big day.  Starting off with the stunning ceremony arch. They even created all of the signage which all turned out beautifully! If you have the ability to do DIY projects it can be a great way to save money or allocate it to something else that is a priority for you! I’m obsessed with how the seating chart and champagne welcome sign turned out. Such a gorgeous focal point.

They opted for a very romantic sweetheart table instead of the traditional head table.  We went with a very modern and clean look with a nice touch of greenery.  We wanted it to be clean and simple yet beautiful!

They had a live band to finish off the night so all the guests could dance the night away! They also had an incredible dessert and candy bar which had plenty of options to choose from!  This was a truly delicious spread!

We wrapped up the night with a sparkler exit for some extra flare and the pictures turned out amazing!  Such a fun way to end the night after this beautiful wedding!  We love being able to see our clients this happy and carefree on their biggest day and we want to make that happen for you too!  Reach out to us here for all your wedding planning needs!
