Aria // Robin & Matt

The phrase "opposites attract" couldn't be more true when it comes to these adorable newlyweds. While the groom comes off as more quiet and reserved {and very sweet}, the bride is off-the-charts bubbly with an incredibly spunky {and infectious} spirit. Even though their personalities are polar opposite, after seeing the two together it is obvious that they truly bring out the best in one another. 

Just like their personalities, the couple's style preferences differ as well. Matt prefers a more classic, neutral look while Robin loves texture and bold, vibrant colors. This wedding was all about balance and merging the contrasting personalities / styles together in a way that captured the essence of the couple. Bright yellow, orange and raspberry pops of spring florals, funky petal linens and bold watercolor invitations and paper were used to speak to Robin's personality. The contemporary, industrial look of the venue catered to Matt's taste and worked beautifully with the vivid decor. Although the two may have different style preferences, one thing they both agreed on was incorporating their furry friends into their special day by showing off precious photos of their two rescue pups. The couple added another personal touch to their reception by serving some of their favorite Minnesotan treats in place of a cake. As Izzy's Ice Cream is one of Robin & Matt's go-to date spots, it was only appropriate to include the local ice cream shop into their wedding. The infamous Glam Doll Donuts were also offered as dessert and Robin's love of Boom-Chicka-Pop {who doesn't?} made a perfect late night snack. 

To top the wonderful day off, the wedding attendants pulled off a very special surprise for the bride and groom during the ceremony. Following their vows, the wedding party and all guests joined in serenading Robin and Matt with "Lean On Me." The room erupted in song and dance; it was a one-of-a-kind moment!
