For McKenna Sokol and Ryan Erickson, bold and bright were a feature of their special day. In a wedding design that was anything but typical, the personalities of the radiant bride and groom shone through. Old Sugar Distillery was the perfect setting for vibrant pops of color and provided a clean, modern backdrop for the couple’s immersive celebration. From the addition of their dog, Daisy, throughout the day to a designer’s dream come true of color-blocking florals, their union unfolded in the quirkiest yet most stylish of ways. McKenna’s vision of “standing in a field of Dr. Seuss flowers” was realized, especially during the ceremony where the couple stood surrounded by pink, orange and yellow bursts of colorful allium and bougainvillea. During the funky yet chic dinner reception, charming glass lamps brought warmth to long tables covered in more dazzling florals and unexpected linens designed with vivid geometrics. Later, Daisy’s Koozie display was transformed into a late-night snack wall featuring Taco Bell Doritos Locos and Soft Supreme tacos that proved to be a resounding hit as the party continued well into the evening.
McKenna and Ryan had an initial vision to feel as if they were "standing in a field of Dr. Seuss flowers" on their special day.
