A traditional wedding wasn’t the plan for Marissa George and Scott Kressin, but rather, an unconventional, unforgettable party with family and friends. And that’s just what they pulled off, starting with Marissa’s walk down the aisle to a Justin Bieber song to remember the first concert they attended together. The modern wedding fête was filled with bohemian-chic details, such as dried florals and an autumnal color palette of burgundy, forest green and burnt orange, which was accented with earthy touches, like woven details at place settings. Velvet linens added an element of luxury, while nature-inspired books about birds, bees and florals were scattered throughout the tablescape to create an elevated garden party vibe. And Marissa and Scott’s beloved pups were in attendance in the form of custom neon signs shaped in their likenesses, which hung behind the oversize bar. The al fresco reception featured cool details like leather tassel escort cards and a dessert display of macarons and cookies—some of which were adorned with images of the dogs. Marissa advises, “Know what you want your wedding day to be like and stick to that plan!”
