Creating a Magical and Colorful Fairy Garden Wedding - Inspiration
If you're planning a wedding and want to incorporate a touch of magic and whimsy, a fairy garden theme may be just what you're looking for. In this post, we'll share some inspiration for creating a beautiful and enchanting and colorful fairy garden wedding. Joy and Patrick are as whimsical and colorful as their wedding ended up being. They were involved in every detail of planning and this, absolutely came through when we saw it all come together the day of.
I think it is possible to create this fun whimsical theme at many different venues, but The Borden building at Fletcher Park might have been as close to perfect as you can get. Take a look, even the front garden is filled with colorful blooms just in time for this springtime fairytale day.
Add Some Fairy Magic
Joy is such a kind and colorful person, there is no other option than pink hair on her special day. She also shared that she ordered her shoes online, but customized them with ribbons from her mother in law. Such a special touch and they were definitely a talking point because of Joy’s short dress! The bride’s bouquet was made by her maid of honor, using mostly flowers from her garden, a few from the bride and grooms, and a couple of roses from their niece. It is truly stunning! The bride and groomed shared that Patrick wore cuff links that belonged to his late grandfather and a favorite detail of theirs was including all of their “flower children” nieces and nephews.
a ceremony change of plans
Joy’s word of advice for your wedding day, don’t plan on it raining, plan on a downpour. But above all else, remember you are marring your love and the rest is extra. It rained. It was a downpour. The Borden building at Fletcher Park has indoor and outdoor space, which is such an awesome option. The space holds up to 150 guests and utilizing the covered porch was perfect for Joy and Patrick’s day. Joy’s dad is a retired pastor and married the two on their special day, something Joy has thought of since she was a little girl.
“Walking down the isle- for me was so emotional and overwhelming in the best way. I hadn’t seen the set up at all and everything was so beautiful! Seeing our many loved ones and especially my Patrick waiting there to marry me with tears in his eyes was just the absolute best most intense feeling.” - Joy
Time to have a magic party
Another favorite part of the couple’s day was sneaking away after dinner to have a moment together. They danced all night long, it was so fun to watch and be a part of. When you know how to have fun and relax, the night will be flawless, no matter what.
Why Fancy This photography
“I knew I wanted Fancy This to shoot my wedding before I met my husband! Having had the privilege of going to photo school with Nikki, posing for her in the past, and being her friend I knew exactly how fun, professional, kind, and SKILLED she is! The wedding was our first time meeting Courtney and she really blew us away with her know how, great attitude and resolve. I’ve been admiring the work of fancy this for almost a decade now (woah!) and We’re so lucky we were able to have such an incredible team there for us on our big day. The photos were even more beautiful than we could have anticipated and Nikki and Courtney both went above and beyond all day to make everything work around changing schedules and crazy weather. It was also great to have a trusted friend in my bridal suite to help keep me calm (ish) while I got ready. We are so grateful!” — Joy, the bride
