Vibrant, whimsical, & vintage vibes abound at this Blumen Gardens wedding #Real Weddings: Midwest US#alice in wonderland weddings#bride in pants#brides in glasses#illinois#lesbian weddings#LGBTQ#mohawk#red hair Updated Jul 14 2020 (Posted Jul 13 2020) Catherine Clark bijouxandbits Photos by: Allison Williams Photography Photos by Allison Williams Photography Allie and Cloie had their colorful and whimsical nuptials at Blumen Gardens in Sicamore, Illinois. They were officially declared as the summer’s best-dressed couple which you'll soon see. Hold on to your tiny, adorable hats… Cloie, rocking a hot pink suit topped with a tiny floral fascinator (and those teal glasses!), walked down the aisle with Allie in her ethereal, vintage-inspired dress. Don't miss the lush green backdrop and vibrant flowers. After the ceremony and patio cocktail hour, the new brides kicked off their rockin' party styled with a nod to Alice in Wonderland and pops of vintage colors. The eclectic mix of floral terrarium arrangements, calligraphy table numbers, and tons of vintage dishware gave us vintage-backyard vibes that we still dream about.
