Demmi + Nick's Still Water Hollow Wedding

STILL WATER HOLLOW | JUNE 17, 2018

I'm so excited to share with you Demmi + Nick's wedding at beautiful Still Water Hollow! Demmi is one of those brides that is just an absolute joy to work for. She has this soft and bubbly kind spirit! This is a perfect example of a couple who opted for our Enhanced Day-Of Package. Demmi did a fabulous job working on a lot of the design and selecting her vendors. We worked with her on three areas of design assistance to help pull it all together, and together we created their perfect wedding. Thank you Demmi for inviting the Ira + Lucy team to be part of your wedding! Hugs!

“You are your team are absolutely amazing! It was the most perfect day ever! Thank you for everything!””

— Bride, Demmi

Kylie + Punky's Countryside Wedding

STILL WATER HOLLOW | SEPTEMBER 19, 2014

Digging into the archives, it'd be a shame to not share some of our very first weddings and special couples that we had the joy of working with! These Brides were absolutely amazing and were so open to our design ideas and introducing the concept of "vintage rentals" to the Idaho wedding industry! Kylie was a dream to work with! One of our out-of-state brides, she and I emailed more times then I can count about design ideas, sharing concepts and bringing her dream wedding to life! Here's to Kylie and Punky who are now enjoying married life with a beautiful baby boy!

Sammie + Beau's Boho Wedding

Yet everything that touches us, me and you,
takes us together like a violin's bow, 
which draws one voice out of two separate strings

The Design

Sammie shared with me a love for moody jewel tones and wanted to be sure it didn't feel too "girly" or too "country rustic". We focused on giving some boho vibes and playing up the jewel tones with a softer blush hue in the mix to add some depth to the palette. Pheasant feathers were a must for Sammie and Just So. Event Floral did a beautiful job incorporating them into the Bridal bouquet and Groom's boutonnière. I pulled away from a country vibe by adding a dramatic textured black and white print linen, from La Tavola Fine Linen, for the large head table. Adding vintage brown bottles, brass candlesticks with black tapers, gold geo shapes, air plants and ferns helped create a WOW focal point. Last minute, I decided to surprise Sammie with stunning calligraphy place cards from Sarah Pearl Studio. I requested them on black paper with torn edges and white text to add to that edgier vibe I wanted. 

Authentic Mexican Equipale chairs made for the perfect Bride + Groom special seating and after dinner we pulled one out for the garter toss! I'm so excited about these new chairs now a part of our rental collection! The Honey Harvest Rattan Chargers pulled in the warm wood hues  seen in the chairs, the brick backdrop and flooring.

Custom Projects

Sammie is going to school full time for nursing and truly, just didn't have the time or capacity to plan a wedding. Not to mention, just a few months before the wedding, her original venue canceled all their booked weddings, so we had to scramble to move the wedding to a new venue. At that point Sammie gave me full rein and told me to just take total creative and logistic control and pull her wedding together. It was pretty incredible to be able to have so much creative freedom and then get to surprise Sammie and Beau with all the little details we planned for them. The week of the wedding Sammie and her Mom wrote me in a panic that they forgot about a ring bearer pillow! So, I chatted with Kara, the florist and we put our minds together and I created the ring pillow and she made the flower girl baskets to match!

Farm House Tables

Our NEW Farm House Tables making their debut!!! They were incredible and made for the perfect special seating for the reserved family tables! Aren't they gorgeous pushed together for a dramatic tables cape and they pair beautifully with Tates new cross back chairs.

“I’ve just been crying since last night and still can’t stop. I am in absolute awe. Thank you just does not do it. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude... I don’t have the words to thank you. That wedding was something out of my wildest dreams. You guys are miracle workers. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!””

— Bride, Sammie

This was one of those "get you in the feels" weddings and couple. When Sammie and I first met in person there was an immediate connection, one of those God moments where you know you were brought into one another's lives for a bigger purpose. I won't got into the specifics, as it's personal for both Sammie and I, and we don't need to get too weepy eyed in our blog, but I'll forever feel connected to Sammie and giving her her dream wedding was a joy. I know all the vendors went above and beyond to love on this couple and I couldn't be more proud of our team and showing why we do what we do! To bless others! Love you so much Sammie! xoxo
