My dear friend, Jennifer, got married yesterday. She comissioned me to make 5 orange silk dresses for the wedding. Each of the girls designed their own gowns for me to interpret in cloth. Jennifer is a talented architect and designer. Everything she touches is gorgeous. I have to admit, when I heard her color scheme of orange, robin egg blue, and lime green, I was a bit curious. At the wedding, there were a pair of live love birds snuggling on the guest book table. Guess what colors they were? Yep, Now it all makes sense.
Walking to the Rehearsal Dinner
Outdoor dining at Piropos in Weston, MO for the rehearsal dinner. The food was amazing, the view gorgeous and the company unsurpassed.
The inside of the Red Barn on Red Barn Farm. Jennifer transformed it into a breathtaking reception hall.
The bride and groom stood in the center looking out over the orchard to say their vows.

I love this picture because it shows her bolero which her grandmother created from the scraps leftover from hemming the dress. Her grandmother also made the flower girl dresses (Which I didn't get a good picture of, sigh.) The dresses were cream silk with a pleated ruffle neckline. Grandmother Jecker made the patterns and created them for Jennifer from a picture off the internet. Grandma Jecker also made plates and plates of authentic biscotti served with the cake. I'm going to go and visit her soon. She's amazing and I'd like to learn from her.

I can't wait to see the professional photos from this wedding. The photographers are the amazing team Lemon Lime and the engagement pictures were breathtaking.
The wedding was planned to be held outside but rain forced us into the barn. The good news was the filtered lighting through the clouds was perfect for photography.
