Back on November 23rd, Elyse (the older half of Two Sisters) married the love of her life, Marty! We don't have the photos back from their wedding photographer, but we just can't wait any longer to share some of her big day!
Of course, I (Betsy 😊) was Elyse's Maid of Honor. The bridesmaids wore different black floor length gowns of their choice. When
mine arrived and I tried it on, I realized that I literally ordered the
same dress as Elyse, just in black. Ok, not technically the same brand, but the same style and silhouette. Don't worry, I asked her like 20 times if she cared... And her response every single time was "Sis, we do everything together, it's only right that we match!" I absolutely LOVED being her Maid of Honor! The whole toast thing, not so much. I think I'm going to write a blog post about giving a good Maid of Honor toast at a wedding. Because we're wedding planners, we've seriously heard hundreds, so I think we'll have some good advise.
The color palette for the wedding was varying shades of burgundy and gold. Here is Elyse's stunning (and massive) bridal bouquet! Elyse creates all of our bridal bouquet for Two Sisters Events and she absolutely loves it, but creating her own for her big day was so fun!
Elyse and Marty had the sweetest, most romantic 75 guest wedding at
Maggiano's Little Italy in Schaumburg, IL. Elyse wanted the vibe to be dark and moody - So we kept the lights low (sorry again to the awesome photographer!) and had lots of candles with a burgundy sequined table cloth.
We're waiting on pins and needles for the professional photographer's photos! But in the meantime, we're going to continue shamelessly starring at these iPhone pics ;)
❤️- Betsy
