Marisa and Mike’s wedding was filled with so much excitement for many reasons, but one of the most meaningful aspects was the journey they had been on leading up to their special day. Mike, who is in the military, was stationed out of state during most of their engagement. This gave Marisa and her planner Kendall plenty of one-on-one time to plan every detail together. While it was tough for Mike to be away, it made his reaction on the wedding day that much sweeter. The planner and venue shared, “It was so exciting for Marisa to see his reaction on wedding day to everything we’d been working on over the past year!”

They shared many unique aspects of this day, one being that Mike & all of the groomsmen that were in the military wore their uniforms for the ceremony and changed into suits for the reception. “It’s not often that the groom gets to do an outfit change so that added a unique element to their day.”

Marisa & her bridesmaids’ looks were complete with stunning florals in hand by Larson Floral Co. These florals brought elegance to this beautiful day!
