I am so happy to
welcome Jessica Neeley to Tiger Lily Invitations! Jessica is a past bridal customer and I loved
working with her to find the perfect wedding stationery for her big day. When I saw her resume come through, I knew
that she would be a great fit for Tiger Lily Invitations. Jessica assists with
all types of projects and cutting, assembly and shipping of invitation orders.
Since each item at Tiger Lily Invitations is handmade, she is a lifesaver. She will also be updating the blog, so I
thought what better way to kick that off than by featuring her own beautiful
wedding. Enjoy!
Jessica and Greg |
Sangria and Gray Wedding in Georgia
| 2012
Greg and I met in February
2010. Five months later he moved to
Indiana for a job. After months and
months of flying back and forth, he proposed and I said yes!
I
knew from the beginning that I wanted a wedding with a rustic flair – touches
of burlap and wood bark here and there. We
found a beautiful wedding venue, The Grove’s Chantry in Maysville, GA, that was
close to home.
My sister told me
about Jessica and Tiger Lily Invitations.
I made an appointment and found the
damask wedding invitations in
sangria and gray.
They were perfect and
quickly became one of my favorite parts of the wedding.
Tiger Lily
Invitations also created sangria and gray
damask wedding programs and damask unity
candle wrap to match my wedding invitations.
The sangria and gray unity candle wrap was a lifesaver after not being
able to find a unity candle that I liked.
My bridesmaids are
three of my closest friends. Couldn’t
have a special day without them! They
chose the style for these sangria bridesmaid dresses we found at David’s Bridal. Don’t they have great taste?
Greg picked out the gray
suits for the guys. I thought he looked
handsome in gray so I was very happy with his choice.
The wedding cake was
another one of my favorite parts of the wedding. It was a simple white buttercream wedding
cake with a swirl design. It was made by
a local bakery, Just Desserts. Everybody
commented on how much they enjoyed it!
The cakes sat on tree
slice cake stands made by my dad. This
made the wedding cake even more special knowing that my dad had a hand in
it. I thought the Willow Tree cake
topper was sweet, plus it was a great keepsake that I have displayed at home.
Greg
has been a Cubs fan since he was a little boy so he had to have a Chicago Cubs
groom’s cake with a Cubs themed table.
Our friends and
family made the day so special. We have
some truly great people in our lives and I’m so glad they got to be there for
our wedding.
The day went by in a
flash but it was one of the best days of my life. I am so grateful that I get
to spend forever with my best friend!
