Decor Choices
In order to complement the strong presence of copper, Alyssa chose to keep floral arrangements to a minimum so as not to compete with the boldness of this metal. With a strong affinity for lavender, this delicate flower emerged as a perfect counterpoint. Sprigs of locally sourced lavender were made into small arrangements and placed in mismatched apothecary vessels that were sprinkled among mercury glass votives on each table. Lavender was further incorporated into the bridal bouquet, placed upon the wedding cake, and lay adorning the bar.
Copper Cup Favors
We continue to see copper increasing in popularity as a main metal for wedding decor. Copper also happens to be the foundation of Alyssa and Eric’s business – Copper Mug Co. Specializing in drink-ware, Alyssa and Eric provided each guest with a stemless copper cup favor for wine, each engraved with a custom logo (combined family crest) designed by the groom himself. Additionally, the bride and groom handcrafted hammered copper chargers, copper cupcake trays to tie in the dessert bar, and incorporated hints of copper throughout signage and the bar to carry the theme through all elements of the evening.
