Bold & Beautiful Woodbine Mansion Wedding

Weddings

A Luxury Celebration Full of Color

Kate and Kyle’s bold and beautiful wedding at Woodbine Mansion was pure magic. Luxury, maximalism, and vibrant personality all beautifully rolled into one unforgettable day. This wasn’t your typical soft-and-muted wedding palette. Instead, it was bold, colorful, and perfectly coordinated, overflowing with bright pinks, rich reds, and lush greens. The entire day felt like stepping into a summery, high-end celebration of love.

From the very beginning, you could feel the intentionality behind each design choice. It wasn’t just a wedding—it was an experience.

A Ceremony on the Mansion Steps

The couple exchanged vows on the front steps of Woodbine Mansion, framed by towering columns and vibrant floral installations that matched the bold color palette. The architecture provided an elegant, historic backdrop while the florals added a playful, maximalist twist. Guests fanned themselves with custom-designed programs that doubled as chic keepsakes, all while soaking in the romantic yet lively atmosphere.

As Kate walked down the aisle, the sentiment was heartfelt and emotional. A ceremony filled with so much genuine love that the moment practically radiated through the lens.

An Outdoor Reception Under the Stars

After the ceremony, guests moved to the backyard, where the reception space was a true masterpiece of design. Picture twinkle lights intertwined with disco balls hanging above a classic checkerboard dance floor. The sweetheart table looked like something out of a dream, with layers of candlelight, small table lamps, and pops of color that tied the entire space together.

Even the little details were unforgettable:
✨ Colorful name cards placed at every seat
✨ Custom bar menu books featuring personalized cocktail selections
✨ Chic fans with the program printed on them for guests to keep
✨ Candlelight and mini lamps that made the space feel warm and inviting

It was the perfect example of how maximalist wedding design can still feel cohesive and intentional.

A Dance Party to Remember

Once dinner wrapped up, the vibe shifted into full-on celebration mode. The dance floor came alive under the twinkle lights and disco balls, and guests didn’t hold back. It was easily one of the most beautiful dance parties I’ve ever photographed.

Kate and Kyle even had a late-night pizza delivery, which kept the party fueled and made the entire night feel even more fun and personal. There were tears during toasts, laughter echoing through the night, and so many emotional, candid moments that told the story of the evening beautifully.

As the night came to an end, the couple shared one last dance before making their grand exit in a luxury getaway car. It was the perfect way to close out a day that was equal parts elegant and electric.
