Blush Pink Spring Wedding Reception in Middleburg: Mai + Alexander
June 22, 2015 Tabitha

Mai and Alexander wed outdoors in the lush gardens of Salamander Resort & Spa in Middleburg, Virginia before heading inside to a beautifully dressed ballroom for their Virginia wedding reception. In case you missed their lovely, sentimental wedding ceremony, you can see all the stunning photos here.  After the “I do’s”, their wedding guests were welcomed by pastel pink DIY escort cards (you’d never know the bride did the calligraphy herself!) and a custom cigar roller for the guys in the group. A tall traditional wedding cake and pretty-in-pink wedding flowers dressed up the formal reception space, while the lovebirds danced the night away with their friends and family. The backdrop for Mai and Alexander’s big day is pretty incredible, but not nearly as memorable as their faces of love as they celebrated. Thank you to their wedding planner Event Accomplished and photographer Vicki Grafton for giving us a glimpse into their fabulous Washington DC area wedding reception with us.

From Mai: I took a calligraphy class [from Meant To Be Calligraphy] and hand wrote all the wedding invitations, name cards, and then digitized the font on the menus and the ceremony programs. My mother, mother-in-law, and I also did the watercolor name cards.

Mai’s advice for other Washington DC area couples?

Having a wedding coordinator was a huge help! Even though we just did a partial coordinator package it made a world of a difference.
