Before we kicked things off for Jezelle and Perry’s Planterra garden wedding, my team and I first popped in to meet Perry at the Daxton Hotel in Birmingham, Michigan. Perry and his groomsman met us with an entertaining sense of humor and incredible style. If you are new around here you know I absolutely love it when a groom has a unique sense of style, which is also a key element in the wedding scheme. Perry’s green 1701 Bespoke ensemble was truly incredible in fit and style with a hint of irridescence and custom embroidery. The suite at the Daxton was the perfect backdrop with tons of lovely natural light and decor that added so much style to their preparations.

Her style…

Jezelle and her ladies had their hair and makeup wrapped up as we arrived at the home she shares with Perry and their fur baby, Koda. I was not surprised to find their impeccable style encompassed their home which made Jezelle’s details and flat lays so much more personal. This sweet couple incorporated a fun convertible in their engagement session so when I spotted a Lego Porsche on a shelf I had to incorporate it, too. Perry being a car guy made his gift from Jezelle that were cufflinks with a manual transmission marking engraved on them so fun.

The very first wedding I photographed, years ago, at Planterra was in mid-May and we had snow so I was not surprised to have a decent snowfall this March for Perry and Jezelle’s wedding day. Her exit from their home to her transportation was so pretty and so fun with active snowfall.

Planterra…

Once we arrived at Planterra the space easily allows you to forget that it’s winter outside as you are enveloped by natural light, the koi pond, living plants, florals, the flicker of candles, and twinkle lights. Soon, Jezelle was dressed and Perry was nervously and very anxiously waiting to see his bride. We realized early on in their wedding day that no one would be leaving this day without shedding at least a tear or two. Their love is so patient, genuine, and kind. They each are so full of gratitude for the other and it is obvious that they have the full support of the families that love them.

The color palette…

Green may be an obvious choice for a Planterra garden wedding at a conservatory but I have never seen it done in the past. The bridesmaids wore wedding day pajamas in the prettiest dusty sage color before changing into their bridesmaid dresses in a very similar shade. The groomsmen’s ties coordinated perfectly with the lady’s dresses. I loved the combination of undressed tables at Planterra in the dining space combined with other tables that were draped in fabric. The black chairs anchored the space and the little pops of cranberry ranunculus in the centerpieces added a touch of depth and whimsy.

Tears of joy…

The tears continued to flow throughout the ceremony and toasts before everyone segwayed to the dance floor where Derek kept the dance floor packed. What I appreciate most about Perry and Jezelle’s wedding day from a logistical standpoint is the adequate amount of time we included for each segment of the day. It really gave my team and me the time we needed to document all of those details and must-have moments while having plenty of time to be creative. We love being able to take a deep breath alongside our couples to take in the small moments, their guests in a unique and flattering way, and to have time to say ‘yes’ to requests from friends and family, too.

Perry and Jezelle, it has been quite a pleasure getting to know you both along the way. It has been our honor to be trusted with your precious memories. And we look forward to crossing paths again. May you be blessed with a lifetime of health and happiness together!
