Rich autumn colors was the focus for this event, beginning at St. Luke's and finishing at the Concourse in downtown Madison.

The church has a wonderfully intimate sanctuary and the decision to avoid floral decor was a good one as the strong vertical lines of the space easily placed the focus on the bride and groom.Pale calla lilies, roses and hypericum berry made up the bridal bouquet while an assortment of roses and hypericum comprised the bride's maids' -- red was avoided for the latters' bouquets as their dresses were a luscious "apple" red and any flowers of that hue would have disappeared in the glory of the fabric.
Upon entering the reception space at the Concourse, guests were met with floral pieces of fall's beloved chrysanthemums, berries and assorted foliage.







Staggering the centerpieces in both raised and flat styles created a sense of depth to the room and enhanced the arrangements with a more regal yet very accessible air.
