“Spotlight” October Wedding

10-10-09

Erica and Matt’s Wedding Day.

What an amazing wedding day at Hawk’s View Golf Club in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. The early morning was overcast, crisp and cold–with a very few snowflakes spotted in the air. Who would have thought that would happen in early October?

The Venue—Hawk’s View Golf Club, a log, lodge-esk building surrounded by glorious grounds, and the hillscape of Lake Geneva–spectacular in the colors of early fall. The Overlook Terrace is the perfect spot for an outdoor ceremony to exchange wedding vows while basking in the panaromic views of the surrounding landscape.

Both the outdoor expanses and the rustic interior spaces at Hawk’s View Golf Club lend themselves to the spectacular fall season. On this chilly October wedding day, Erica and Matt were blessed with a wonderful golden sunlight; setting the stage for an absolutely gorgeous outdoor ceremony.

The bride looks amazing in the stunning charmeuse gown by Augusta Jones named ”Corsica”. She completes her look from head to toe by adding ”Fireworks” by Toni Federici in her hair–beautiful pops of glitz and stepped down the aisle in her peep toe shoes by Grazia–further enhanced with pearls down the back of the heel.

This fall wedding had a “vineyard theme” with rich colors and textures. The theme was cleaverly crafted throughout the outdoor ceremony and the reception later inside.

Erica’s bridesmaids wore beautiful espresso colored satin gowns by Jasmine with streamers flowing down the back.

A magnificant moment in time with the glorious colors and textures of the season.

The happy couple took advantage of the outdoor spaces to capture some incredibe photos.

The Reception….

As you walk into the dining room, you are suddenly swept away. The expansive windows literally bring the outdoors, in. The heavy timber log posts and beams fill the room with so much warmth and character.

Greeting guests are these clever table favors.

Then they are amazed at the warmth and elegance of the room.

What is truly amazing is that Erica’s wonderful Mother is responsible for all of the decorations!

From the headtable to the “Two Some” table for the bride and the groom–no detail was left to chance. The warmth of the room was enhanced with candlelight .

The cake–WOW!

Simple cake with grapes, vines, and ribbons–all capturing the colors of the season!

A beautiful fall wedding. Much love and many blessings to Erica, Matt, their family and friends, for allowing A L’Amour to share this unforgettable wedding day.
