Real Weddings: Mallory + Josh

Happy Monday everyone! Today we have a unique and colorful candy-filled wedding photographed by the talented wedding and portrait Utah photographer, Rebekah Westover.

A big thank you to Rebekah for sharing this wedding with us!

From Rebekah:

Mallory and Josh's wedding was filled with handmade decor, personal touches, and eclectic style. Mallory had a strict budget to adhere to and therefore resorted to her creative skills in coming up with the decor for her wedding. She was never a fan of traditional wedding flowers and instead opted to have a bouquets of yellow billy balls. These bouquets were simple to make and added a huge pop of color to her wedding pallete. Her colors were platinum and yellow so the billy balls worked perfectly within her scheme.

The groomsmen wore grey vests and pants from Target (of all places) and paired this with bright yellow argyle socks. The grooms suit was a bit of a splurge and was from JCrew.

For the reception decor Mallory and Josh deciding to decorate using one of their favorite things, CANDY!!

It all started with the colorful centerpieces. The bride and groom cut branches off of a tree and spray painted them white. Then they placed each mini white tree into a vase full of gumballs. The trees were ornamented with photos from Mallory and Josh's dating years. Amongst the tables and centerpieces were large yellow balloons. The bride has a serious sweet tooth and provided her guests with delicious cupcakes and a candy buffet.

Along with all the colorful candy decor the bride and groom decorated with their initials M+J (see photos). Mallory hand-sculpted her sweet little cake topper.

Mallory did not follow any current trends with her wedding because she wanted her wedding to reflect who she and Josh are as a couple. Their wedding was so memorable and unique and truly showed their guests who they were as a couple and what they loved!
