Bella Figura Real Wedding: Colorful Floral Stationery for a Late Summer Wedding
We had the incredible pleasure of working with our friends at Lee’s Paperie to create Dorrie and Derek’s gorgeous wedding stationery. We’ll let Dorrie take it from here to share more about their wedding details!

CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A BIT ABOUT YOUR WEDDING AND YOUR INSPIRATION FOR THE EVENT?
We got married at The Townsend Hotel in Birmingham, Michigan, a hotel where we have shared many special times together. We wanted the room to feel whimsical while also warm, enchanting and sophisticated.

WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR COUPLES CURRENTLY PLANNING A WEDDING?
Embrace every moment of your wedding day. Everyone says it goes by so quickly, and it truly does. It is not often when all of your loved ones are in one room celebrating together!

HOW DID YOU CHOOSE YOUR INVITATION DESIGN & INK COLORS?
With lots of help from our wedding planner, Carlyn Roth! She understood our vision from our first meeting and helped us set the tone for the wedding weekend from sending out our save the dates to the invitations and all of the other day of details. We wanted everything to coordinate with each other, and she truly helped us achieve a cohesive look and feel.

WHAT SURPRISED YOU MOST ABOUT YOUR WEDDING?
Sneaking away from the cocktail hour to see our room reveal was so amazing. Seeing all of our visions come to life was truly incredible!

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE MOMENT?
Every moment was so special! From our first look, to standing under the chuppah together, to never leaving the dance floor, it is impossible to pick one!

FAVORITE DESIGN ELEMENT OF YOUR BIG DAY?
The butterflies and florals hanging from the ceiling, along with our lavender and navy dance floor with our monogram made us truly feel like we were dancing inside a butterfly garden!

WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE NEWLYWEDS?
We had a relaxing mini-moon in Mayakoba. Now onto planning our summer honeymoon along the Amalfi Coast!
