Whimsical woodland wedding – Sunken Gardens – St. Petersburg

My beautiful best friend, Liz, got married over the summer and I could not be more excited to show off her adorable wedding.  Liz knew that she wanted an outdoorsy wedding with a whimsical woodland wedding theme – she and Daryl fell in love with the lush tropical vibe of Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg – more rainforest than forest, but magical all the same.  Keeping everything else minimal, they focused on the important stuff – music & games, good food, and friends.  No real flowers, no wedding party, no fuss.

French Knot Studios brought Liz’s vision to life with custom bow ties for the gents in whimsical prints, hand foiled paper goods featuring woodland creatures and giant lawn games that brought the outdoors in.  The tables were decorated with animals of all kinds in white, blush and gold. In lieu of fresh flowers, she created paper ones edged in gold.  See below all the pretty and a complete list of vendors.  Enjoy!
