We asked the team to share whether they have a favorite wedding they’ve worked and why, and here’s what they had to say!

The FRE team works on so many different weddings, and we truly love each and every one of them. But every once in a while, there’s a wedding day that stands out for one reason or another. Maybe it’s the unique decor, the incredible florals, the sweetest couple, or a vendor team that makes the entire day run seamlessly. Some wedding days just stick with us!

We’re so excited to share some photos from Leah and Owen’s day at the Adler Planetarium! ✨

Whenever we have couples that really want to put their personality into their wedding, we get a little extra excited. Leah and Owen really wanted their science-side to show through while celebrating their love story and their day did exactly that. With the model centerpieces, the amazing venue itself, the attire, and the Jewish traditions we were able to bring to their day surely made their wedding unique to them and their love story. It was so special to watch them celebrate with their loved ones at the planetarium. We’re so grateful we got to be part of their day and help bring their vision to life!

Like this post if you love this wedding as much as we do!
